Replacing Carbon Brushes - Makita BCS550 Manual De Instrucciones

completed.
To get clean cuts, keep your cutting 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 particles being ejected
from the tool. Use eye protection to help avoid injury.
The sight grooves in the base makes it easy to check the
distance between the front edge of the blade and the
workpiece whenever the blade is set to the maximum
depth of cut.
