Connecting a vacuum cleaner (Fig. 7 & 8)
For European countries only
When you wish to perform clean planing operation, con-
nect a Makita vacuum cleaner to your tool. Install the
nozzle on the tool using the screws. Then connect a hose
of the vacuum cleaner to the nozzle as shown in the fig-
ures.
OPERATION
Planing operation (Fig. 9)
First, rest the tool front base flat upon the workpiece sur-
face without the blades making any contact. Switch on
and wait until the blades attain full speed. Then move the
tool gently forward. Apply pressure on the front of tool at
the start of planing, and at the back at the end of planing.
Planing will be easier if you incline the workpiece in sta-
tionary fashion, so that you can plane somewhat downhill.
The speed and depth of cut determine the kind of finish.
The power planer keeps cutting at a speed that will not
result in jamming by chips. For rough cutting, the depth of
cut can be increased, while for a good finish you should
reduce the depth of cut and advance the tool more
slowly.
Chamfering (Fig. 10 & 11)
To make a cut as shown in Fig. 10, align the "V" groove in
the front base with the edge of the workpiece and plane it
as shown in the Fig. 11.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or
maintenance.
• Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or the
like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may result.
Sharpening the planer blades (Fig. 12, 13 & 14)
Always keep your blades sharp for the best performance
possible. Use the sharpening holder to remove nicks and
produce a fine edge.
First, loosen the two wing nuts on the holder and insert
the blades (A) and (B), so that they contact the sides (C)
and (D). Then tighten the wing nuts.
Immerse the dressing stone in water for 2 or 3 minutes
before sharpening. Hold the holder so that the both
blades contact the dressing stone for simultaneous
sharpening at the same angle.
To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,
carbon brush inspection and replacement, any other
maintenance or adjustment should be performed by Mak-
ita Authorized Service Centers, always using Makita
replacement parts.

Noise
The typical A-weighted noise level determined according
to EN60745:
Sound pressure level (L
Sound power level (L
Uncertainty (K): 3 dB (A)
Wear ear protection
Vibration
The vibration total value (tri-axial vector sum) determined
according to EN60745:
Work mode: planing softwood Vibration emission (a
Uncertainty (K): 1.5 m/s
• The declared vibration emission value has been mea-
sured in accordance with the standard test method and
may be used for comparing one tool with another.
• The declared vibration emission value may also be
used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
WARNING:
• The vibration emission during actual use of the power
tool can differ from the declared emission value
depending on the ways in which the tool is used.
• Be sure to identify safety measures to protect the oper-
ator that are based on an estimation of exposure in the
actual conditions of use (taking account of all parts of
the operating cycle such as the times when the tool is
switched off and when it is running idle in addition to
the trigger time).
