Makita N1923B Bedienungsanleitung Seite 9

For the correct planer blade setting
Your planing surface will end up rough and uneven, unless the blade is set properly and securely. The blade must be
mounted so that the cutting edge is absolutely level, that is, parallel to the surface of the rear base.
Refer to some examples below for proper and improper settings.
(A) Front base (Movable shoe)
(B) Rear base (Stationary shoe)

Connecting a vacuum cleaner
► Fig.9: 1. Vacuum cleaner
For tool without nozzle
When you wish to perform clean planing operation,
connect a Makita vacuum cleaner to your tool. Before
connecting the vacuum cleaner, remove the chip cover
from the tool. Then connect a hose of the vacuum
cleaner to the nozzle (optional accessory) as shown in
the figures.
For tool with nozzle

connect a Makita vacuum cleaner to your tool. Then
connect a hose of the vacuum cleaner to the nozzle as
shown in the figures.
Nozzle assembly (optional
accessory)
► Fig.10: 1. Nozzle assembly
Use of the special nozzle assembly will minimize chip
scatter, making for a cleaner work area.
The nozzle assembly may be attached after the chip
cover on the tool body is removed. When slipping on
the assembly, fit the pin on it into the rear cover hole.
Use the chip cover screws to fasten it in place.

OPERATION
WARNING:
persons, do not operate without nozzle or chip
cover in place.
Planing operation
► Fig.12: 1. End 2. Start
First, rest the tool front base flat upon the workpiece
surface without the blades making any contact. Switch
on and wait until the blades attain full speed. Then
move the tool gently forward. Apply pressure on the
front of tool at the start of planing, and at the back at the
end of planing. Planing will be easier if you incline the
workpiece in stationary fashion, so that you can plane
somewhat downhill.
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.
9 ENGLISH
Although this side view cannot
show it, the edges of the blades
run perfectly parallel to the rear
base surface.
Cause: One or both blades fails to
have edge parallel to rear
base line.
Cause: One or both blade edges
fails to protrude enough in
relation to rear base line.
Cause: One or both blade edges
protrudes too far in relation
to rear base line.
