Blade guard
001535
When lowering the handle, the blade guard rises
automatically. The blade guard returns to its original
position when the cut is completed and the handle is
raised. NEVER DEFEAT OR REMOVE THE BLADE
GUARD OR THE SPRING WHICH ATTACHES TO THE
GUARD.
In the interest of your personal safety, always maintain
the blade guard in good condition. Any irregular
operation of the blade guard should be corrected
immediately. Check to assure spring loaded return
action of guard. NEVER USE THE TOOL IF THE
BLADE GUARD OR SPRING ARE DAMAGED, FAULTY
OR REMOVED. DOING SO IS HIGHLY DANGEROUS
AND CAN CAUSE SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY.
If the see-through blade guard becomes dirty, or
sawdust adheres to it in such a way that the blade
and/or workpiece is no longer easily visible, unplug the
saw and clean the guard carefully with a damp cloth. Do
not use solvents or any petroleum-based cleaners on
the plastic guard.
If the blade guard is especially dirty and vision through
the guard is impaired, use the supplied socket wrench to
loosen the hex bolt holding the center cover. Loosen the
hex bolt by turning it counterclockwise and raise the
blade guard and center cover. With the blade guard so
positioned, cleaning can be more completely and
efficiently accomplished. When cleaning is complete,
reverse procedure above and secure bolt. Do not
remove spring holding blade guard. If guard becomes
discolored through age or UV light exposure, contact a
Makita service center for a new guard. DO NOT
DEFEAT OR REMOVE GUARD.

This tool is provided with the kerf boards in the turn base
to minimize tearing on the exit side of a cut. The kerf
boards are factory adjusted so that the saw blade does
not contact the kerf boards. Before use, adjust the kerf
boards as follows:
First, unplug the tool. Loosen all the screws (2 each on
left and right) securing the kerf boards. Re-tighten them
only to the extent that the kerf boards can still be easily
moved by hand. Lower the handle fully and push in the
stopper pin to lock the handle in the lowered position.
Loosen the knob which secures the slide poles. Pull the
carriage toward you fully. Adjust the kerf boards so that
the kerf boards just contact the sides of the blade teeth.
Tighten the front screws (do not tighten firmly). Push the
carriage toward the guide fence fully and adjust the kerf
boards so that the kerf boards just contact the sides of
blade teeth. Tighten the rear screws (do not tighten
firmly).
After adjusting the kerf boards, release the stopper pin
and raise the handle. Then tighten all the screws
securely.
