Switch action
CAUTION:
• Before plugging in the tool, always check to see
that the tool is switched off.
• Switch can be locked in "ON" position for ease of

tion when locking tool in "ON" position and maintain
firm grasp on tool.

switch is turned on.
• Hold the tool firmly when turning off the tool, to
overcome the reaction.

Electric brake

This tool is equipped with an electric brake. If the tool
consistently fails to quickly stop after switch lever moving
to the O (OFF) position, have tool serviced at a Makita
service center.
Speed adjusting dial
For model 3612C only
1
The tool speed can be changed by turning the speed
adjusting dial to a given number setting from 1 to 5.
Higher speed is obtained when the dial is turned in the
direction of number 5. And lower speed is obtained when
it is turned in the direction of number 1.
This allows the ideal speed to be selected for optimum
material processing, i.e. the speed can be correctly
adjusted to suit the material and bit diameter.
Refer to the table for the relationship between the num-
ber settings on the dial and the approximate tool speed.

a long time, the motor will get overloaded, resulting
in tool malfunction.

as 5 and back to 1. Do not force it past 5 or 1, or the
speed adjusting function may no longer work.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before carrying out any work on the tool.
Installing or removing the bit
CAUTION:
• Install the bit securely. Always use only the wrench
provided with the tool. A loose or overtightened bit
can be dangerous.
• Do not tighten the collet nut without inserting a bit
or install small shank bits without using a collet
sleeve. Either can lead to breakage of the collet
cone.

Insert the bit all the way into the collet cone. Press the
shaft lock to keep the shaft stationary and use the
wrench to tighten the collet nut securely. When using
router bits with smaller shank diameter, first insert the
appropriate collet sleeve into the collet cone, then install
the bit as described above.
To remove the bit, follow the installation procedure in
reverse.
