After a cutting operation, raise the back side of the tool

and a foot comes under the level of the rear base. This

prevents the tool blades to be damaged.

ASSEMBLY

CAUTION:

• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and

unplugged before carrying out any work on the

tool.

Removing or installing mini planer blades

CAUTION:

• Tighten the blade installation bolts carefully when

attaching the blades to the tool. A loose installation

bolt can be dangerous. Always check to see they

are tightened securely.

• Handle the blades very carefully. Use gloves or

rags to protect your fingers or hands when

removing or installing the blades.

• Use only the Makita wrench provided to remove or

install the blades. Failure to do so may result in

overtightening or insufficient tightening of the

installation bolts. This could cause an injury.

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 adjusting

plate to the set plate with the pan head screws

and set the mini planer blade on the gauge base

so that the cutting 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.
