For tool without lock button

To start the tool, simply pull the switch trigger. Release the switch trigger to

stop.

ASSEMBLY

CAUTION:

Always  be  sure  that  the  tool  is  switched  off  and  unplugged  before

carrying out any work on the tool.

Removing or installing saw blade

CAUTION:

Be  sure  the  blade  is  installed  with  teeth  pointing  up  at  the  front  of  the

tool.

Use only the Makita wrench to install or remove the blade.

To remove the blade, hold the outer flange with the wrench so that it cannot

revolve,  then  use  the  socket  wrench  to  loosen  the  hex  bolt  clockwise.  Then

remove the hex bolt, outer flange and blade.

To  install  the  blade,  follow  the  removal  procedure  in  reverse.  BE  SURE  TO

TIGHTEN THE HEX BOLT COUNTERCLOCKWISE SECURELY.
When changing blade, make sure to also clean upper and lower blade guards

of  accumulated  sawdust.  Such  efforts  do  not,  however,  replace  the  need  to

check lower guard operation before each use.

CAUTION:

The  recessed  side  of  inner  flange  is  kept  on  the  blade  side  when

mounting.

OPERATION

CAUTION:

Be  sure  to  move  the  tool  forward  in  a  straight  line  gently.  Forcing  or

twisting  the  tool  will  result  in  overheating  the  motor  and  dangerous

kickback, possibly causing severe injury.

Hold the tool firmly. Set the base plate on the workpiece to be cut without the

blade making any contact. Then turn the tool on and wait until the blade attains

full  speed.  Now  simply  move  the  tool  forward  over  the  workpiece  surface,

keeping it flat and advancing slowly until the sawing is completed. To get clear

cuts, keep your sawing line straight and your speed of advancing uniform.
