workpiece in position against the rip fence.
(Fig. 40)
(2) When the width of rip is 65 mm - 150 mm wide,
use the push stick to feed the workpiece. (Fig. 41)
(3) When the width of rip is narrower than 65 mm, the
push stick cannot be used because the push stick
will strike the blade guard. Use the auxiliary fence
and push block. Attach the auxiliary fence to the
rip fence with two "C" clamps. (Fig. 42)
Feed the workpiece by hand until the end is about
25 mm from the front edge of the table. Continue
to feed using the push block on the top of the
auxiliary fence until the cut is complete. (Fig. 43)
Cross cutting
CAUTION:
• When making a crosscut, remove the rip fence from the
table.
• When cutting long or large workpieces, always provide
adequate support to the sides of the table. The support
should be at the same height as the table.
• Always keep hands away from path of blade.
Miter gauge (Fig. 44)
Use the miter gauge for the 4 types of cutting shown in the
figure.
CAUTION:
• Secure the knob on the miter gauge carefully.
• Avoid creep of workpiece and gauge by firm
workholding arrangement, especially when cutting at
an angle.
• NEVER hold or grasp the intended "cut-off" portion of
the workpiece.
• Always adjust the distance between the end of the
miter gauge and the saw blade not to exceed 15 mm.
Miter gauge positive stop (Fig. 45)
Miter gauge is provided with positive stops at 90°, 45°
right and left miter angles for quick setting of miter angles.
To set the miter angle, loosen the knob on the miter
gauge.
Raise the small plate on the miter gauge for free setting.
Turn the miter gauge to the desired miter angle. Return
the small plate on the miter gauge to the original position
and tighten the knob clockwise securely.
Use of miter gauge (Fig. 46)
Slide the miter gauge into the thick grooves in the table.
Loosen the knob on the gauge and align to desired angle
(0° to 60°). Bring stock flush up against fence and feed
gently forward into the blade.
Auxiliary wood facing (miter gauge)
(Fig. 47)
To prevent a long board from wobbling, fit the miter gauge
with an auxiliary fence board. Fasten with bolts/nuts after
drilling holes, but fasteners must not protrude from the
face board.
Carrying tool (Fig. 48)
Carry the tool by holding the tool part shown in the figure.
CAUTION:
• Always secure all moving portions before carrying the
tool.
14
• Always make sure that the blade guard is installed in
place before the carrying the tool.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or
maintenance.
• Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or the
like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may result.
Cleaning
Clean out sawdust and chips from time to time. Carefully
clean the blade guard and moving parts inside the table
saw.
Lubrication
To keep the table saw in tip-top running condition, and to
assure maximum service life, oil or grease the moving
parts and rotating parts from time to time.
Lubrication places:
• Threaded shaft to elevate the blade
• Hinge to rotate the frame
• Elevation guide shafts on motor
• Gear to elevate the blade
• Guide rails for the rip fence
• Shaft of the sub table (R) locking levers
• Sliding part of the sub table (R)
Replacing carbon brushes (Fig. 49)
Remove and check the carbon brushes regularly. Replace
when they wear down to the limit mark. Keep the carbon
brushes clean and free to slip in the holders. Both carbon
brushes should be replaced at the same time. Use only
identical carbon brushes.
Use a screwdriver to remove the brush holder caps. To
replace the carbon brushes, remove the blade guard and
blade and then loosen the lock lever, tilt the saw head and
secure it at 45° bevel angle. Carefully lay the tool on itself
backward. Then loosen the brush holder cap. Remove the
worn carbon brushes, insert the new ones and secure the
brush holder caps. (Fig. 50)
To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,
any other maintenance or adjustment should be
performed by Makita Authorized Service Centers, always
using Makita replacement parts.
