Cleaning
► Fig.12: 1. Blade guard
If the transparent 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, remove the battery
cartridge and clean the guard carefully with a damp
cloth. Do not use solvents or any petroleum-based
cleaners on the plastic guard because this may cause
damage to the guard.
For cleaning, raise the blade guard by referring to
"Installing or removing saw blade".
After cleaning, make sure to return the blade and center
cover and tighten the hex socket bolt.
1. Make sure that the tool is switched off and the
battery cartridges are removed.
2. Turn the hex socket bolt counterclockwise using
the supplied hex wrench with holding the center cover.
3. Raise the blade guard and center cover.
4. When cleaning is complete, return the center
cover and tighten the hex socket bolt by performing the
steps above in reverse.

of time or UV light exposure, contact a Makita ser-
vice center for replacement. DO NOT DEFEAT OR
REMOVE GUARD.
Positioning kerf board
This tool is provided with the kerf boards in the turn
base to minimize tearing on the exit side of a cut. The
kerf boards are factory adjusted so that the saw blade
does not contact the kerf boards. Before use, adjust the
kerf boards as follows:
1.
Make sure to remove the battery cartridge. Then,
loosen all the screws (2 each on left and right) securing
the kerf boards.

2. Re-tighten them only to the extent that the kerf
boards can still be easily moved by hand.
3. Lower the handle fully and push in the stopper pin
to lock the handle in the lowered position.
4. Loosen two clamp screws which secure the slide
poles.
