MAKITA KP312
ELECTRIC PLANER
A Review By
MindFlare Media

© 2013 MindFlare Media
THE KP312 AT A GLANCE

Powerful 15 amp motor with 12,000 RPM
for the most demanding jobs.
Front roller for easy moving of planer over
rough materials.
Planing Depth of 1/8″, 24,000 cuts per
minute
Non-slip, long life poly “V” drive efficiently
transfers power to the blades.
Large ejection chute provides high rate of
chip discharge and helps prevent clogging
from wet or dry wood chips.
Specifically
engineered
for
framing
and
woodworking, the Makita KP312 Planer is designed
for professional timber framers, carpenters, log
home manufacturers, boat fabricators and general
contractors in mind. As a best-in-class 12-1/4-inch
planer, the KP312 is just another example of
Makita’s commitment to innovative technology and
first rate engineering.

The Makita KP312 promises “precision engineered
for an even cut every time,” and certainly doesn’t
disappoint. With a powerful 15.0 AMP motor and
12,000 RPM, it can handle the most strenuous of
applications without breaking a sweat. The front
roller offers the user easy moving of the planer over
the roughest of materials with minimal effort. A
larger than usual ejection chute provides a high rate
of wood chip discharge and helps prevent clogging
from wet or dry chips so you can continue working
better, longer. Adjust the working depth easily with
a conveniently placed, large depth knob.
On top of all that, the KP312 planer is equipped with
built-in edge guides as well as a spring-loaded stand
located at the rear of the base to protect planer
blades and allow you to work longer without having
to change them. When you do have to change them,
the Makita KP312 planer comes with externally
accessible brushes for easy servicing. A conveniently
placed 33-foot cord is located at the top of the
handle to help prevent obstruction during repeat
passes. Overall, Makita didn’t skip a beat on
delivering the user with comfort, control, and
reduced operator fatigue.
Like all Makita products, the KP312 comes with a
great warranty. Apart from individually inspecting
and testing each Makita planer, if you are not
satisfied for any reason within 30 days of the
purchase date, you have the option of returning it
and receiving a store replacement or full refund.
Each Makita tool is warranted to be free of defects
from workmanship and materials for the first year
from the date of original purchase. It’s not every day
that you’ll see a deal like that on an already high
quality product. With an offer like this, there’s no
reason not to make the purchase.
