Dust bag (accessory) (Fig. 10)
For tool without nozzle
Remove the chip cover and install the nozzle (optional
accessory). Attach the dust bag onto the nozzle. The
nozzle is tapered. When attaching the dust bag, push it
onto the nozzle firmly as far as it will go to prevent it from
coming off during operation.

When the dust bag is about half full, remove the dust bag
from the tool and pull the fastener out. Empty the dust bag
of its contents, tapping it lightly so as to remove particles
adhering to the insides which might hamper further
collection.
NOTE:
• If you connect a Makita vacuum cleaner to this tool,
more efficient and cleaner operations can be
performed.
Connecting a vacuum cleaner (Fig. 12)
For tool without nozzle
When you wish to perform clean planing operation,
connect a Makita vacuum cleaner to your tool. Then
connect a hose of the vacuum cleaner to the nozzle
(optional accessory) as shown in the figures.

Elbow (optional accessory) (Fig. 13)
Use of elbow allows change of chip discharge direction to
perform cleaner work.
For tool without nozzle
Remove the chip cover and install the nozzle (optional

OPERATION

Hold the tool firmly with one hand on the knob and the
other hand on the switch handle when performing the tool.
Planing operation (Fig. 14)
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.
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.
