CLOCKWISE SECURELY.
Fig.8
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.
Connecting a vacuum cleaner
Fig.9
When you wish to perform clean cutting operation,
connect a Makita vacuum cleaner to your tool. Install the
joint on the tool using the screws. Then connect a hose of
the vacuum cleaner to the joint as shown in the figure.
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.
Fig.10
Always use a front grip and rear handle and firmly hold
the tool by both the front grip and rear handle during
operations. The tool is provided with both the front grip
and rear handle. If both hands are holding saw, they
cannot be cut by the blade. Set the base 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
smoothly until the sawing is completed.
To get clean cuts, keep your sawing line straight and your
speed of advance uniform. If the cut fails to properly
follow your intended cut line, do not attempt to turn or
force the tool back to the cut line. Doing so may bind the
blade and lead to dangerous kickback and possible
serious injury. Release switch, wait for blade to stop and
then withdraw tool. Realign tool on new cut line, and start
cut again. Attempt to avoid positioning which exposes
operator to chips and wood dust being ejected from saw.
Use eye protection to help avoid injury.
Rip fence (guide rule) (Accessory)
Fig.11
The handy rip fence allows you to do extra-accurate
straight cuts. Simply slide the rip fence up snugly against
the side of the workpiece and secure it in position with
the screw on the front of the base. It also makes repeated
cuts of uniform width possible.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
•
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before attempting to perform inspection
or maintenance.
•
Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or the
like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may
result.
Adjusting for accuracy of 90° cut (vertical cut)
This adjustment has been made at the factory. But if it is
off, adjust the adjusting screw with a hex wrench while
squaring the blade with the base using a triangular rule,
try square, etc.

Replacing carbon brushes
Fig.14
Remove and check the carbon brushes regularly.
Replace when they wear down to the limit mark. Keep
the carbon brushes clean and free to slip in the holders.
Both carbon brushes should be replaced at the same
time. Use only identical carbon brushes.
Use a screwdriver to remove the brush holder caps. Take
out the worn carbon brushes, insert the new ones and
secure the brush holder caps.
Fig.15
To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,
any other maintenance or adjustment should be
