Sharpening the planer blades (Fig. 9, 10 & 11)
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 blades
both contact the dressing stone for simultaneous sharp-
ening at the same angle.
Connecting a vacuum cleaner
For European countries and areas (Fig. 12 & 13)
When you wish to perform clean planing operation, con-
nect a Makita vacuum cleaner to your tool. Install the
nozzle (standard equipment) on the tool using the screws
provided. Then connect a hose of the vacuum cleaner to
the nozzle as shown in Fig. 13.
For other countries and areas
A nozzle and joint (optional accessories) are necessary
to connect a Makita vacuum cleaner to your tool. Consult
a Makita catalogue or representative on the nozzle and
joint.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before carrying out any work on the tool.
Replacement of carbon brushes (Fig. 14, 15 & 16)
Replace carbon brushes when they are worn down to the
limit mark. First, remove the chip cover and then replace
the carbon brushes. Both identical carbon brushes
should be replaced at the same time.
To maintain product safety and reliability, repairs, mainte-
nance or adjustment should be carried out by a Makita
Authorized Service Center.
