For tool with lock-off button
To prevent the switch trigger from being accidentally
pulled, a lock-off button is provided. To start the tool,
press the lock-off button and pull the switch trigger.
Release the switch trigger to stop.
WARNING:
NEVER defeat the lock-off button
by taping down or some other means.
A switch with
a negated lock-off button may result in unintentional
operation and serious personal injury.
WARNING:
NEVER use the tool if it runs when
you simply pull the switch trigger without press-
ing the lock-off button.
A switch in need of repair
may result in unintentional operation and serious
personal injury. Return tool to a Makita service center
for proper repairs BEFORE further usage.
NOTICE:
Do not pull the switch trigger hard
without pressing in the lock-off button.
This can
cause switch breakage.
Interval between vise and guide
plate
CAUTION:
After adjusting the interval
between the vise and the guide plate, make

The following interval settings of the vise are available:
•
0 - 170 mm (original setting)
•
35 - 205 mm
•
70 - 240 mm
If your work requires different setting, proceed as fol-
lows to change the spacing or interval.

After adjusting the angle of the
guide plate, make sure that the guide plate is
properly secured.
Insufficient fixing may result in
personal injury.

For LW1401
NOTICE:
When performing right miter cut,
always set the guide plate at 0 - 170 mm position.
Setting at the 35 - 205 mm or 70 - 240 mm position
hinders the movement of stopper plate, which
results in a failure cut.
Loosen the two hex bolts using a socket wrench. Turn
the guide plate to the desired angle and secure it with
the hex bolts. Be careful not to move the set angle while
securing the hex bolts.

NOTE:
The scale on the guide plate is only a rough
indication. For more accurate angle, use a protractor
or triangle ruler. Keep the handle down so that the
cut-off wheel extends into the base. At the same time,
adjust the angle between the guide plate and the cut-
off wheel with a protractor or triangle ruler.

Spark guard
The spark guard is factory-installed with its lower edge
contacting the base. Operating the tool in this position
will cause many sparks to fly around. Loosen the screw
and adjust the spark guard to a position at which mini
-
mum sparks will fly around.
Stopper plate
For LW1401 only (country specific)
►

Stopper plate
The stopper plate prevents the cut-off wheel from
contacting the workbench or floor. When a new cut-off
wheel is installed, set the stopper plate to position (A).
When the cut-off wheel wears down to the extent that
the lower portion of the workpiece is left uncut, set the
stopper plate to position (B) to allow increased cutting
capacity with a worn down wheel.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is
switched off and unplugged before carrying out
any work on the tool.
