OPERATION

CAUTION:
• Before operation, always make sure that the tool body
automatically rises to the upper limit and the bit does
not protrude from the tool base when the lock knob is
loosened.
Set the tool base on the workpiece to be cut without the
bit making any contact. Then turn the tool on and wait
until the bit attains full speed. Lower the tool body and
move the tool forward over the workpiece surface, keep-
ing the tool 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 bit in the feed direction. (Fig. 8)
NOTE:
• Make sure that the dust guide is installed properly.
• Moving the tool forward too fast may cause a poor qual-
ity of cut, or damage to the bit or motor. Moving the tool
forward too slowly may burn and mar the cut. The
proper feed rate will depend on the bit size, the kind of
workpiece and depth of cut. Before beginning the cut
on the actual workpiece, it is advisable to make a sam-
ple cut on a piece of scrap lumber. This will show
exactly how the cut will look as well as enable you to
check dimensions.
• When using the straight 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. (Fig. 9)
Straight guide (optional accessory)
(Fig. 10, 11 & 12)
The straight guide is effectively used for straight cuts
when chamfering or grooving.
To install the straight guide, insert the guide bars into the
holes in the tool base. Adjust the distance between the
bit and the straight guide. At the desired distance, tighten
the lock screw to secure the straight guide in place.
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)
(Fig. 13, 14 & 15)
The templet guide provides a sleeve through which the
bit passes, allowing use of the tool with templet patterns.
To install the templet guide, loosen the screws on the tool
base, insert the templet guide and then tighten the
screws.
Secure the templet to the workpiece. Place the tool on
the templet and move the tool with the templet guide slid-
ing along the side of the templet.
NOTE:
• The workpiece will be cut a slightly different size from
the templet. Allow for the distance (X) between the 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 –
bit diameter) / 2
Connecting to Makita vacuum cleaner (Fig. 16)
Cleaner operations can be performed by connecting the
tool to Makita vacuum cleaner.
Insert the nozzle assembly and the dust nozzle assembly
into the tool. Also, the dust nozzle assembly can be
inserted into the tool base directly in accordance with the
operation.
When connecting to Makita vacuum cleaner (Model 407),
an optional hose 28 mm in inner diameter is necessary.

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.
Replacing carbon brushes
Remove and check the carbon brushes regularly.
Replace when they wear down to the limit mark. Keep
the carbon brushes clean and free to slip in the holders.
Both carbon brushes should be replaced at the same
time. Use only identical carbon brushes. (Fig. 17)
Use a screwdriver to remove the brush holder caps. Take
out the worn carbon brushes, insert the new ones and
secure the brush holder caps. (Fig. 18)
To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,
any other maintenance or adjustment should be per-
formed by Makita Authorized Service Centers, always
using Makita replacement parts.
