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.
To remove planer blades on the drum, loosen the eight
installation bolts by only one full turn with the hex wrench.
Then push and slide a planer blade sideways from the
belt side using the helm of the hex wrench.
To remove another planer blade, follow the same
procedure as above.

To install the blades, first clean out all chips or foreign
matter adhering to the drum or blades.
Insert the blade between the drum and the set plate
from the nozzle extraction side so that the blade will be
centered from both ends of the drum or set plate.
First tighten the eight installation bolts lightly and evenly
shifting from the center bolts to the outward bolts with the
hex wrench.
And then, tighten all of the installation bolts securely.
Install another blade in the same manner as above.
