MAINTENANCE
WARNING:
Always be sure that the tool is
switched off and the battery cartridge is removed
before attempting to perform inspection or main-
tenance. Failure to removing the battery cartridge
and switch off the tool may result in accidental start
up of the tool which may result in serious personal
injury.
WARNING:
Always be sure that the circular
saw blade is sharp and clean for the best and saf-
est performance. Attempting a cut with a dull and /or
dirty blade may cause kickback and result in a serious
personal injury.
NOTICE:
Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner,
alcohol or the like. Discoloration, deformation or
cracks may result.
Adjusting the cutting angle
This tool is carefully adjusted and aligned at the factory,
but rough handling may have affected the alignment. If
your tool is not aligned properly, perform the following:
Miter angle
Lower the handle fully and lock it in the lowered position
by the stopper pin. Push the carriage toward the guide
fence. Loosen the grip and the screws which secure the
pointer and miter angle scale.
► Fig.71: 1. Screw on pointer 2. Screws on miter
angle scale 3. Miter scale
Set the turn base to the 0° position using the positive
stop function. Square the side of the blade with the face
of the guide fence using a triangular rule or try-square.
While keeping the square, tighten the screws on the
miter angle scale. After that, align the pointers (both
right and left) with the 0° position in the miter angle
scale and then tighten the screw on the pointer.
► Fig.72: 1. Triangular rule
Bevel angle
0° bevel angle
Push the carriage toward the guide fence and lock the
sliding movement by the stopper pin. Lower the handle
fully and lock it in the lowered position by the stopper
pin and then loosen the knob. Turn the 0° adjusting bolt
two or three revolutions counterclockwise to tilt the saw
blade to the right.
► Fig.73: 1. 0° Adjusting bolt 2. Screw
Carefully square the side of the saw blade with the top sur-
face of the turn base using the triangular rule, try-square,
etc. by turning the 0° adjusting bolt clockwise. Then tighten
the knob firmly to secure the 0° angle you have set.
► Fig.74: 1. Triangular rule 2. Saw blade 3. Top sur-
face of turn base
Check if the side of the saw blade squares with the
turn base surface once again. Loosen the screw on the
pointer. Align the pointer with 0° position in the bevel
angle scale and then tighten the screw.
45° bevel angle
NOTICE:
Before adjusting the 45° bevel angle,
finish 0° bevel angle adjustment.
Loosen the knob and fully tilt the carriage to the side
that you want to check. Check if the pointer indicates
the 45° position in the bevel angle scale.
► Fig.75
If the pointer does not indicate the 45° position, align
it with 45° position by turning the adjusting bolt on the
opposite side of the bevel angle scale.

Adjusting the laser line position
For DLS111, DLS112 only
WARNING:
while adjusting the laser line. Take extra care not
to switch on the tool during adjustment. Accidental
start up of the tool may result in serious personal
injury.
CAUTION:
Never look directly into the laser
beam. Direct eye exposure to the beam could cause
serious damage to your eyes.
NOTICE:
Check the position of laser line regu-
larly for accuracy.
NOTICE:
Beware that impacts to the tool. It may
cause the laser line to be misaligned or may cause
damage to the laser, shortening its life.
NOTICE:
Have the tool repaired by a Makita
authorized service center for any failure on the
laser unit.
The movable range of laser line is decided by the range
adjustment screws on both sides. Perform following
procedures to alter the laser line position.
1. Remove the batteries.
2. Draw a cutting line on the workpiece and place it
on the turn base. At this time, do not secure the work-
piece with a vise or similar securing device.
3. Lower the handle and align the cutting line with
the saw blade.
4.
Return the handle to the original position and secure
the workpiece with the vertical vise so that the workpiece
does not move from the position you have determined.
5.
Install the batteries and turn on the laser switch.
6. Loosen the adjusting screw. To move the laser line
away from the blade, turn the range adjustment screws
counterclockwise. To move the laser line close to the
blade, turn the range adjustment screw clockwise.
