To remove the router bit, follow the installation
procedure in reverse.
OPERATION
WARNING:
Before operation, always make
sure that the stopper pole is secured firmly by the
stopper pole setting nut. Otherwise the depth of
cut may change during operation and cause personal
injury.
CAUTION:
Before operation, always make
sure that the tool body automatically rises to
the upper limit and the router bit does not pro-
trude from the tool base when the lock knob is
loosened.
CAUTION:
Always use both grips and firmly
hold the tool by both grips during operations.
1. Set the base on the workpiece to be cut without
the router bit making any contact.
2. Turn the tool on and wait until the router bit attains
full speed.
3. Lower the tool body and move the tool forward
over the workpiece surface, keeping the base flush and
advancing smoothly until the cutting is complete.
When doing edge cutting, the workpiece surface should
be on the left side of the router bit in the feed direction.

direction
NOTE: Moving the tool forward too fast may cause
a poor quality of cut, or damage to the router bit or
motor. Moving the tool forward too slowly may burn
and mar the cut. The proper feed rate will depend on
the router bit size, the kind of workpiece and depth
of cut.
Before beginning the cut on the actual workpiece, it
is advisable to make a sample cut on a piece of scrap
lumber. This will show exactly how the cut will look as
well as enable you to check dimensions.
NOTE: When using the straight guide or the trimmer
guide, be sure to install it on the right side in the feed
direction. This will help to keep it flush with the side of
the workpiece.

Straight guide
Optional accessory
The straight guide is effectively used for straight cuts
when chamfering or grooving.

1.
Insert the guide bars into the holes in the tool base.
2. Adjust the distance between the router bit and
the straight guide. At the desired distance, tighten the
thumb screws to secure the straight guide in place.
► Fig.12: 1. Thumb screw 2. Straight guide
3.
When cutting, move the tool with the straight guide
flush with the side of the workpiece.
If the distance between the side of the workpiece and
the cutting position is too wide for the straight guide, or
if the side of the workpiece is not straight, the straight
guide cannot be used. In this case, firmly clamp a
straight board to the workpiece and use it as a guide
against the router base. Feed the tool in the direction of
the arrow.

Templet guide
Optional accessory
The templet guide provides a sleeve through which the
router bit passes, allowing use of the router with templet
patterns.
► Fig.14
1. Loosen the screws on the base, insert the templet
guide and then tighten the screws.
► Fig.15: 1. Screws 2. Templet guide
2.
Secure the templet to the workpiece. Place the
tool on the templet and move the tool with the templet
guide sliding along the side of the templet.

4. Templet 5. Workpiece 6. Templet guide
NOTE: The workpiece will be cut a slightly different
size from the templet. Allow for the distance (X)
between the router bit and the outside of the templet
guide. The distance (X) can be calculated by using
the following equation:
Distance (X) = (outside diameter of the templet
guide - router bit diameter) / 2
Dust nozzle sets
Cleaner operations can be performed by connecting the
tool to Makita vacuum cleaner.
Insert the nozzle assembly and the dust nozzle assem-
bly into the tool.

Also, the dust nozzle assembly can be inserted into the
tool base directly in accordance with the operation.
