FUNCTIONAL
DESCRIPTION
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is
switched off and unplugged before adjusting or
checking function on the tool.
Blade guard
► 1. Blade guard
When lowering the handle, the blade guard rises auto-
matically. The guard is spring loaded so it 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 opera-
tion 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 IS DAMAGED, FAULTY OR REMOVED.
DOING SO IS HIGHLY DANGEROUS AND CAN
CAUSE SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY.
If the see-through blade guard becomes dirty, or saw-
dust 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 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.

Kerf board
1
This tool is provided with the kerf board in the turn base
to minimize tearing on the exit side of a cut. If the kerf
groove has not yet been cut in the kerf board by the
factory, you should cut the groove before actually using
the tool to cut a workpiece. Switch on the tool and lower
the blade gently to cut a groove in the kerf board.

Maintaining maximum cutting
capacity
This tool is factory adjusted to provide the maximum
cutting capacity for a 255 mm (10") saw blade.
When installing a new blade, always check the lower
limit position of the blade and if necessary, adjust it as
follows:
First, unplug the tool. Lower the handle completely. Use
the wrench to turn the adjusting bolt until the periphery
of the blade extends slightly below the top surface of
the turn base at the point where the front face of the
guide fence meets the top surface of the turn base.
