CAUTION:
•
Before inserting the battery cartridge into the tool,
always check to see that the switch trigger actuates
properly and returns to the "OFF" position when
released.
•
Do not pull the switch trigger hard without pressing
the lock-off lever. This can cause switch breakage.
To prevent the switch trigger from being accidentally
pulled, a lock-off lever is provided. To start the tool, slide
the lock-off lever and pull the switch trigger. Release the
switch trigger to stop.
WARNING:
•
For your safety, this tool is equipped with lock-off
lever which prevents the tool from unintended
starting. NEVER use the tool if it runs when you
simply pull the switch trigger without pressing the
lock-off lever. Return tool a MAKITA service center
for proper repairs BEFORE further usage.
•
NEVER tape down or defeat purpose and function
of lock-off lever.

NOTE:
•
If a inner flange is removed by chance, install the
inner flange so that its protrusion (bigger side)
faces inside as shown in the figure.
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.
