User manual MAKITA 105

[. . . ] Do not short the battery cartridge: (1) Do not touch the terminals with any conductive material. A battery short can cause a large current flow, overheating, possible burns and even a breakdown. Be aware that this tool is always in an operating condition, because it does not have to be plugged into an electrical outlet. Rags, cloth, cord, string and the like should never be left around the work area. [. . . ] Wait until the blade attains full speed before cutting. Keep at least 200 mm away from the tool at all times. Always switch off and wait for the blades to come to a complete stop before any adjusting. Never stick your finger into the chip chute. When leaving the planer, switch off and set it with the front base up on a wooden block, so that the blades do not contact anything. Always change both blades or covers on the drum, otherwise the resulting imbalance will cause vibration and shorten tool life. Wait for complete run-down before putting the tool aside. Use only Makita blades specified in this manual. First, rest the tool front base flat upon the workpiece surface without the blades making any contact. 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. 10, align the "V" groove in the front base with the edge of the workpiece and plane it as shown in Fig. CAUTION: Before inserting the battery cartridge into the tool, always check to see that the switch trigger actuates properly and returns to the "OFF" position when released. To prevent the switch trigger from being accidentally pulled, a lock-off button is provided. When installing it, push the bag's entry port toward the nozzle as far as it will go to prevent it from comming off during operation. For the best results, empty the dust bag when it becomes about half full. Remove the dust bag from the tool and pull out the fastener. NOTE: If you connect a Makita vacuum cleaner Model 406 to this tool, more efficient and cleaner operations can be performed. Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the battery cartridge is removed before removing or installing the blades. Use gloves or rags to protect your fingers or hands when removing or installing the blades. To remove the blades, first loosen the two installation bolts one turn counterclockwise with the hex wrench provided. 15) Push the blade from the belt side with the hex wrench.
