Finishing Edges; Dust Extraction - Makita 4351T Bedienungsanleitung

Front flush cuts
► Fig.12: 1. Base 2. Bolt 3. Hex wrench
Loosen the bolt on the back of the base with the hex
wrench and slide the base all the way back. Then
tighten the bolt to secure the base.
Cutouts
Cutouts can be made with either of two methods A or B.
A) Boring a starting hole:
► Fig.13: 1. Starting hole
For internal cutouts without a lead-in cut from an
edge, pre-drill a starting hole 12 mm or more in diame-
ter. Insert the blade into this hole to start your cut.
B) Plunge cutting:
► Fig.14
You need not bore a starting hole or make a
lead-in cut if you carefully do as follows.
(1) Tilt the tool up on the front edge of the base
with the blade point positioned just above the
workpiece surface.
(2) Apply pressure to the tool so that the front
edge of the base will not move when you
switch on the tool and gently lower the back
end of the tool slowly.
(3) As the blade pierces the workpiece, slowly
lower the base of the tool down onto the
workpiece surface.
(4) Complete the cut in the normal manner.

Finishing edges

► Fig.15
To trim edges or make dimensional adjustments, run the
blade lightly along the cut edges.
Metal cutting
Always use a suitable coolant (cutting oil) when cutting
metal. Failure to do so will cause significant blade wear.
The underside of the workpiece can be greased instead
of using a coolant.

Dust extraction

► Fig.16: 1. Dust nozzle 2. Base
► Fig.17
The dust nozzle (accessory) is recommended to per-
form clean cutting operations.
To attach the dust nozzle on the tool, insert the hook of
dust nozzle into the hole in the base.
The dust nozzle can be installed on either left or right
side of the base.
Then connect a Makita vacuum cleaner to the dust
nozzle.

CAUTION:
• If you try to remove the dust nozzle forcibly, the
hook of the dust nozzle can be diminished and
removed unintentionally during operation.
Rip fence set (optional accessory)
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off
and unplugged before installing or removing
accessories.
1. Straight cuts
► Fig.19: 1. Rip fence
► Fig.20: 1. Hex wrench 2. Bolt 3. Fence guide
When repeatedly cutting widths of 160 mm or less, use
of the rip fence will assure fast, clean, straight cuts. To
install, insert the rip fence into the rectangular hole on
the side of the tool base with the fence guide facing
down. Slide the rip fence to the desired cutting width
position, then tighten the bolt to secure it.
2. Circular cuts
► Fig.21
► Fig.22: 1. Fence guide 2. Threaded knob 3. Circular
guide pin
When cutting circles or arcs of 170 mm or less in
radius, install the rip fence as follows.
Insert the rip fence into the rectangular hole on the
side of the base with the fence guide facing up.
Insert the circular guide pin through either of the
two holes on the fence guide. Screw the threaded
knob onto the pin to secure the pin.
Now slide the rip fence to the desired cutting
radius, and tighten the bolt to secure it in place.
Then move the base all the way forward.
NOTE:
• Always use blades No. B-17, B-18, B-26 or B-27
when cutting circles or arcs.
Guide rail adapter set (accessory)
► Fig.23
When cutting parallel and uniform width or cutting
straight, the use of the guide rail and the guide rail
adapter will assure the production of fast and clean cuts.
To install the guide rail adapter, insert the rule bar into
the square hole of the base as far as it goes. Secure the
bolt with the hex wrench securely.
► Fig.24: 1. Bolt 2. Rule bar
Install the guide rail adapter on the rail of the guide rail.
Insert the rule bar into the square hole of the guide rail
adapter. Put the base to the side of the guide rail, and
secure the bolt securely.
► Fig.25: 1. Screw 2. Guide rail adapter 3. Guide rail
CAUTION:
• Always use blades No. B-8, B-13, B-16, B-17 or
58 when using the guide rail and the guide rail
adapter.
Cover plate
► Fig.26: 1. Cover plate 2. Base
Use the cover plate when cutting decorative veneers,
plastics, etc. It protects sensitive or delicate surfaces
from damage. Fit it on the back of the tool base.
