Dust cover adjustment (Fig. 8)
Loosen the screw. and adjust the dust cover's brush level.
The dust cover's brush should be either flush with the
diamond wheel surface or very slightly above (when tool
is inverted) 0.5 mm. Suction/pickup will be poor if they are
not approximately on the same level. After adjusting, be
sure to tighten the screw firmly.
To adjust the dust cover, grip it on the outside; turn
clockwise to raise, counterclockwise to lower.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before carrying out any work on the tool.
Installing or removing diamond wheel
(Fig. 9)
To replace a worn diamond wheel with a new one, press
in the shaft lock to hold the shaft steady, then loosen the
lock nut counterclockwise with the lock nut wrench
provided.
Remove the worn diamond wheel.
To install a new one, follow the above removal procedure
in reverse.
When installing a diamond wheel, always make sure to
tighten the lock nut firmly.
NOTE:
• The ordinary diamond wheels on the market have no
exhaust holes, so dust evacuation is poor. Also, if the
installing hole is not of the exact diameter, tool vibration
occurs and accidents can occur. ALWAYS USE A
MAKITA OFFSET DIAMOND WHEEL.
Replacing dust cover's brush (Fig. 10)
To remove the dust cover's brush from the dust cover,
grab an end of the dust cover's brush and take it out
slowly outward. (Fig. 11)
To install a dust cover's brush, put the outer edge of the
dust cover's brush in the groove in the dust cover.
(Fig. 12)
And then expand the groove. With the groove being
expanded, insert the inner edge of the dust cover's brush.
Repeat this action and insert all the remaining part.
Dust bag (Fig. 13)
To install dust bag, slip onto dust port. Always make sure
to slip onto dust port all the way until it stops so that it
does not come off during operation.
Remove dust bag when it begins to touch cutting surface.
This is a sign that it is full. Failure to empty bag will lead to
poor suction/pickup.
Connecting a vacuum cleaner (Fig. 14)
When you wish to perform clean planing operation,
connect a Makita vacuum cleaner to your tool as shown in
the figure.

OPERATION
Planing in corners
For PC5000C
Flush planing of corners is possible after first removing
the dust cover cap.
For PC5001C only (Fig. 15)
Before performing the flush planing of corners, remove
the hex bolt which secures roller holder and base holder
and then take away the whole roller holder.
Next, loosen the hex socket head bolt and take away the
dust cover cap and then adjust the dust cover in a proper
position according to your work. (Fig. 16)
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or
maintenance.
Replacing carbon brushes (Fig. 17)
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.
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
performed by Makita Authorized Service Centers, always
using Makita replacement parts.
