2040 Makita Planer

Here’s a link I found for all the replacement parts for it. Using google, all I found was people asking the same question as you.

Hello Julian, Thank-You for the fast reply, I have checked it out, but I need the owners manual on the adjustments, for the feed rollers, and things. Thanks Dave

Did you get your planer running? I was wondering how you like it. I had a 2040 about 20 years ago.

-- David, Southern Indiana

Hello David, I did get it running, but it had issues, the roller guide setting screws are shot, I have them on order. Hope to get it back in great shape soon. I would love get a hard copy of an owners manual, or any copy of an owners manual, Thank for the response Dave

I did not find anyone with a copy that wanted to send it to you free but it seems like you can purchase what you need here:

This internet world that we now live in is amazing and at the same time very scary. It seems like there is nothing that can not be found on the world wide web. I just don’t know how to get to it all. Hope this helps.
