Makita KP0800

Durable reversible knives

The professional tool of Japanese production Makita KP0800 is designed for planing large volumes of wood. This is ensured by the presence of durable reversible knives made of tungsten carbide. They are mounted in a balanced aluminium drum designed with vibration reduction technology. As a result, vibration is reduced to a minimum.

Ease of use

Like the Bosch GHO 6500, this model from Makita is equipped with a metal casing that reduces the heat of the gearbox, and thereby increases the duration of its operation. The chips exit from under the sole through the hole on the right side, to which a dust collector can be attached or a household vacuum cleaner can be connected. Users note comfortable rubberized back and front handles.

Replacement of brushes without SC

At the back of the case is a compartment for carbon brushes, which allows you to quickly change them without spending extra time and money on a repair shop. The shoe at the base of the sole provides a stable position on the workpiece without damaging it with knives. The locking of the start button protects the tool from accidental activation. However, like all high-quality equipment from Makita, this model is not cheap.
