20. Check damaged parts.

Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part

that is damaged should be carefully checked to

determine that it will operate properly and perform

its intended function. Check for alignment of moving

parts, free running of moving parts, breakage of

parts, mounting and any other conditions that may

affect its operation. A guard or other part that is

damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by

an authorized service center unless otherwise indi-

cated in this instruction manual. Have defective

switches replaced by an authorized service facility.

Do not use the tool if the switch does not turn it on

and off.

21. Warning.

The use of any accessory or attachment, other than

those recommended in this instruction manual or the

catalog, may present a risk of personal injury.

22. Have your tool repaired by a qualified person.

This electric tool is in accordance with the relevant

safety requirements. Repairs should only be carried

out by qualified persons using original spare parts,

otherwise this may result in considerable danger to

the user.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES

ENB045-2

1. Rags, cloth, cord, string and the like should

never be left around the work area.

2. Avoid cutting nails. Inspect for and remove all

nails from the workpiece before operation.

3. Use only sharp blades. Handle the blades very

carefully.

4. Be sure the blade installation bolts are securely

tightened before operation.

5. Hold the tool firmly.

6. Keep hands away from rotating parts.

7. Before using the tool on an actual workpiece, let

it run for a while. Watch for vibration or wobbling

that could indicate poor installation or a poorly

balanced blade.

8. Make sure the blade is not contacting the work-

piece before the switch is turned on.

9. Wait until the blade attains full speed before cut-

ting.

10. Keep at least 200 mm away from the tool at all

times.

11. Always switch off and wait for the blades to

come to a complete stop before any adjusting.

12. Never stick your finger into the chip chute. Chute

may jam when cutting damp wood. Clean out

chips with a stick.

13. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool

only when hand-held.

14. When leaving the planer, switch off and set it

with the front base up on a wooden block, so

that the blades do not contact anything.

15. Always change both blades or covers on the

drum, otherwise the resulting imbalance will

cause vibration and shorten tool life.

16. Wait for complete run-down before putting the

tool aside.

17. Use only Makita blades specified in this manual.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Removing or installing planer blades

CAUTION:

Always be sure that the tool is switched off and

unplugged before removing or installing the blade.

For tool with standard planer blades

(Fig. 1, 2 & 3)

To remove the blades on the drum, unscrew the three

installation bolts with the socket wrench. The drum cover

comes off together with the blades.

To i n s t a l l t h e b l a d e s , f i r s t c l e a n o u t a l l c h i p s o r f o r e i g n

matter adhering to the drum or blades. Use blades of the

same dimensions and weight, or drum oscillation/vibra-

tion will result, causing poor planing action and, eventu-

ally, tool breakdown.

Place the blade on the gauge base so that the blade

edge is perfectly flush with the inside edge of the gauge

plate. Place the adjusting plate on the blade, then simply

press in the heel of the adjusting plate flush with the back

side of the gauge base and tighten two screws on the

adjusting plate. Now slip the heel of the adjusting plate

into the drum groove, then fit the drum cover on it.

Tighten the three installation bolts evenly and alternately

with the socket wrench.

For tool with mini planer blades (Fig. 1, 4 & 5)

1. Remove the existing blade, if the tool has been in

use, carefully clean the drum surfaces and the drum

cover. To remove the blades on the drum, unscrew

the three installation bolts with the socket wrench.

The drum cover comes off together with the blades.

2. To install the blades, loosely attach the adjust plate

to the set plate with the pan head screws and set the

mini planer blade on the gauge base so that the cut-

ting edge of the blade is perfectly flush with the

inside flank of the gauge plate.

3. Set the adjusting plate/set plate on the gauge base

so that the planer blade locating lugs on the set plate

rest in the mini planer blade groove, then press in

the heel of the adjusting plate flush with the back

side of the gauge base and tighten the pan head

screws.

4. It is important that the blade sits flush with the inside

flank of the gauge plate, the planer blade locating

lugs sit in the blade groove and the heel of the

adjusting plate is flush with the back side of the

gauge base. Check this alignment carefully to

ensure uniform cutting.

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

the drum.

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 hand rotate the drum

to check clearances between the blade ends and the

tool body.
