5. Slip the heel of the adjusting plate into the groove

of the drum.

Fig.9

6. Set the drum cover over the adjusting plate/set

plate and screw in the three hex flange head bolts

so that a gap exists between the drum and the set

plate to slide the mini planer blade into position.

The blade will be positioned by the planer blade

locating lugs on the set plate.

7. The blade's lengthwise adjustment will need to be

manually positioned so that the blade ends are

clear and equidistant from the housing on one side

and the metal bracket on the other.

8. Tighten the three hex flange head bolts (with the

socket wrench provided) and rotate the drum to

check clearances between the blade ends and the

tool body.

9. Check the three hex flange head bolts for final

tightness.

10. Repeat procedures 1 - 9 for the other blade.

For the correct planer blade setting

Your planing surface will end up rough and uneven,

unless the blade is set properly and securely. The blade

must be mounted so that the cutting edge is absolutely

level, that is, parallel to the surface of the rear base.

Refer to some examples below for proper and improper

settings.

Dust bag (accessory)

Fig.10

For tool without nozzle

Remove the chip cover and install the nozzle (optional

accessory). Attach the dust bag onto the nozzle . The

nozzle is tapered. When attaching the dust bag, push it

onto the nozzle firmly as far as it will go to prevent it from

coming off during operation.

For tool with nozzle

Attach the dust bag onto the nozzle. The nozzle is

tapered. When attaching the dust bag, push it onto the

nozzle firmly as far as it will go to prevent it from coming

off during operation.

Fig.11

When the dust bag is about half full, remove the dust bag

from the tool and pull the fastener out. Empty the dust

bag of its contents, tapping it lightly so as to remove

particles adhering to the insides which might hamper

further collection.

NOTE:

• If you connect a Makita vacuum cleaner to this tool,

more efficient and cleaner operations can be

performed.
