Installing or removing saw blade
CAUTION:
*Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the battery cartridge is removed 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 serious injury to operator or others in the general vicinity of the tool.
Lock the handle in the raised position by pushing in the stopper pin.
To remove the blade, use the socket wrench to loosen the hex bolt holding the center cover by turning it counterclockwise. Raise the safety cover and center cover.
Press the shaft lock to lock the spindle and use the socket wrench to loosen the hex bolt
