Laser line can be shifted to either the left or right side of
the saw blade by adjusting the adjusting screw as fol-
lows.

clockwise.
2. With the adjusting screw loosened, slide the adjust-
ing screw to the right or left as far as it goes.
3. Tighten the adjusting screw firmly at the position
where it stops sliding.
Laser line is factory adjusted so that it is positioned within
1 mm from the side surface of the blade (cutting posi-
tion).
NOTE:
• When laser line is dim and almost or entirely invisible
because of the direct sunlight in the indoor or outdoor
window-by work, relocate the work area to a place not
exposed to the direct sunlight.
Aligning the laser line (Fig. 20)
Laser line can be shifted to either the left or right side of
the blade according to the applications of cutting. Refer
to explanation titled "Laser beam action" regarding its
shifting method.
NOTE:
• Use wood facing against the guide fence when aligning
the cutting line with the laser line at the side of guide
fence in compound cutting (bevel angle 45 degrees and
miter angle right 45 degrees).
A) When you obtain correct size on the left side of work-
piece
• Shift the laser line to the left of the blade.
B) When you obtain correct size on the right side of
workpiece
• Shift the laser line to the right of the blade.
Align the cutting line on your workpiece with the laser

Installing or removing saw blade
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before installing or removing the blade.
• Use only the Makita socket wrench provided to install
or remove the blade. Failure to do so may result in
overtightening or insufficient tightening of the hex bolt.
This could cause an injury.
Lock the handle in the raised position by pushing in the
stopper pin. (Fig. 22)
To remove the blade, use the socket wrench to loosen
the hex bolt holding the center cover by turning it coun-
terclockwise. Raise the blade guard and center cover.
(Fig. 23)
Press the shaft lock to lock the spindle and use the
socket wrench to loosen the hex bolt clockwise. Then
remove the hex bolt, outer flange and blade. (Fig. 24)
To install the blade, mount it carefully onto the spindle,
making sure that the direction of the arrow on the surface
of the blade matches the direction of the arrow on the
blade case. Install the outer flange and hex bolt, and then
use the socket wrench to tighten the hex bolt (left-
handed) securely counterclockwise while pressing the
shaft lock.
Return the blade guard and center cover to its original
position. Then tighten the hex bolt clockwise to secure
the center cover. Release the handle from the raised
position by pulling the stopper pin. Lower the handle to
make sure that the blade guard moves properly. Make
sure shaft lock has released spindle before making cut.
