WARNING:

 

BE SURE TO TIGHTEN THE HEX 

BOLT CLOCKWISE SECURELY. Also be careful 

not to tighten the bolt forcibly. Slipping your hand 

from the hex wrench can cause a personal injury.

WARNING:

 

If the ring is needed to mount the 

blade onto the spindle, always be sure that the 

correct ring for the blade's arbor hole you intend 

to use is installed between the inner and the outer 

flanges.

 Use of the incorrect arbor hole ring may 

result in the improper mounting of the blade causing 

blade movement and severe vibration resulting in 

possible loss of control during operation and in seri-

ous personal injury.

Blade guard cleaning

When changing the circular saw blade, make sure to 

also clean the upper and lower blade guards of accu-

mulated sawdust as discussed in the Maintenance 

section. Such efforts do not replace the need to check 

lower guard operation before each use.

Connecting a vacuum cleaner

Optional accessory

When you wish to perform clean cutting operation, 

connect a Makita vacuum cleaner to your tool. Connect 

a hose of the vacuum cleaner to the dust nozzle using 

the front cuff 24.

 Dust nozzle

Adjusting angle of dust nozzle

The angle of the dust nozzle can be adjusted by rotating 

the dust nozzle.

When operating the tool without connecting a vacuum 

cleaner, bring the dust nozzle downward to prevent the 

operator from being exposed to sawdust.

When operating the tool with connecting a vacuum cleaner, 

bring the dust nozzle upward to keep the hose of the vacuum 

cleaner from getting caught in the workpiece or the guide rail.

OPERATION

This tool is intended to cut wood products only.

Refer to our website or contact your local Makita dealer for the 

correct circular saw blades to be used for the material to be cut.
Do not use the tool without the sub base unless when 

using the guide rail.

Checking blade guard function

Remove the battery cartridge.

Set the bevel angle to 0°, and then retract the lower guard manually 

to the end and release it. The lower guard is properly functioning if;

— 

it is retracted above the base without any hindrance and;

— 

it automatically returns and contacts with the stopper.

If the lower guard is not functioning properly, check if saw dust 

is accumulated inside of the upper and lower guards. If the 

lower guard is not functioning properly even after removing 

dust, have your tool serviced at a Makita service center.
