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.
Shiplapping (Rabbeting)
► Fig.18
To make a stepped cut as shown in the figure, use the
edge fence (guide rule).
Adjust the shiplapping depth using a depth guide (accessory).
Draw a cutting line on the workpiece. Insert the edge fence into the
hole in the front of the tool. Align the blade edge with the cutting line.

Install the edge fence on the tool and secure it with the washer
and thumb screw (A). Loosen the thumb screw (B) and adjust
the edge fence until it comes in contact with the side of the
workpiece. Then tighten the thumb screw (B) securely.

When planing, move the tool with the edge fence flush with the
side of the workpiece. Otherwise uneven planing may result.
CAUTION:
The blade edge should be made to protrude out-
side slightly (0.2 mm - 0.4 mm) for shiplapping.
► Fig.21
You may wish to add to the length of the fence by
attaching an extra piece of wood. Convenient holes
are provided in the fence for this purpose, and also for
attaching an extension guide (optional accessory).

Chamfering
► Fig.23
To make a chamfering cut as shown in the figure, align
one of three "V" grooves in the front base with the edge
of the workpiece and plane it.
► Fig.24: 1. V groove (medium amount of chamfering)
2. V groove (small amount of chamfering)
3. V groove (great amount of chamfering)
Use of chamfering rule (optional accessory) assures
more tool stability when shiplapping.
► Fig.25: 1. Chamfering rule 2. Screws
To install the chamfering rule, remove two screws on
both sides of the front of the tool and set the depth of
cut to 4 mm. And then install it on the front base of the
tool and secure it the screws as shown in the figure.
When doing a great amount of chamfering, place an edge
of chamfering rule so that it contacts workpiece and make
many passes of planing as shown in the figure.

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.
To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,
carbon brush inspection and replacement, any other
maintenance or adjustment should be performed by
Makita Authorized or Factory Service Centers, always

Sharpening the planer blades
For standard blades only
Always keep your blades sharp for the best perfor-
mance possible. Use the sharpening holder to remove
nicks and produce a fine edge.
► Fig.27: 1. Sharpening holder
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.
► Fig.28: 1. Wing nut 2. Blade (A) 3. Blade (B) 4. Side
(D) 5. Side (C)
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.
