Front flush cuts
► Fig.14: 1. Hex wrench 2. Bolt 3. Base
Loosen the bolt on the back of the base with the hex
wrench and slide the base all the way back. Then
tighten the bolt to secure the base.
Cutouts
Cutouts can be made with either of two methods
"Boring a starting hole" or "Plunge cutting".
Boring a starting hole
► Fig.15
For internal cutouts without a lead-in cut from an edge,
pre-drill a starting hole 12 mm or more in diameter.
Insert the jig saw blade into this hole to start your cut.
Plunge cutting
► Fig.16
You need not bore a starting hole or make a lead-in cut
if you carefully do as follows.
1. Tilt the tool up on the front edge of the base with
the jig saw blade point positioned just above the work-
piece surface.
2. Apply pressure to the tool so that the front edge of
the base will not move when you switch on the tool and
gently lower the back end of the tool slowly.
3. As the jig saw blade pierces the workpiece, slowly
lower the base of the tool down onto the workpiece
surface.
4. Complete the cut in the normal manner.
Finishing edges
► Fig.17
To trim edges or make dimensional adjustments, run the
jig saw blade lightly along the cut edges.
Metal cutting
Always use a suitable coolant (cutting oil) when cutting
metal. Failure to do so will cause significant jig saw
blade wear. The underside of the workpiece can be
greased instead of using a coolant.
Dust extraction
Optional accessory
Clean cutting operations can be performed by connect-
ing this tool to a Makita vacuum cleaner.

► Fig.20: 1. Dust nozzle
To remove the dust nozzle, pull out the dust nozzle
while pressing the button on the dust nozzle.

Rip fence
Optional accessory
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is
switched off and the battery cartridge is removed
before installing or removing accessories.
Straight cuts
When repeatedly cutting widths of 160 mm or less, use
of the rip fence will assure fast, clean, straight cuts.
► Fig.23: 1. Rip fence (Guide rule)
To install, insert the rip fence into the rectangular hole
on the side of the base with the fence guide facing
down. Slide the rip fence to the desired cutting width
position, then tighten the bolt to secure it.

Circular cuts
When cutting circles or arcs of 170 mm or less in radius,
install the rip fence as follows.
► Fig.25: 1. Rip fence (Guide rule)
1. Insert the rip fence into the rectangular hole on the
side of the base with the fence guide facing up.
2.
Insert the circular guide pin through either of the
two holes on the fence guide. Screw the threaded knob
onto the pin to secure the pin.
