Makita 4324 OPERATION

CAUTION:

•Always wear safety goggles even when operating the

tool with the dust cover lowered.

Lower the dust cover to prevent chips from flying. However,

when making bevel cuts, raise it all the way.

For splinter-free cuts, the anti-splintering device can be used.

To install the anti-splintering device, move the base all the

way forward and insert it between the two protrusions of the

base.

NOTE:

•The anti-splintering device cannot be used when making

bevel cuts.

OPERATION CAUTION:

•Always hold the base flush with the workpiece. Failure to

do so may cause blade breakage, resulting in a serious

injury.

•Advance the tool very slowly when cutting curves or

scrolling. Forcing the tool may cause a slanted cutting

surface and blade breakage.

Turn the tool on without the blade making any contact and

wait until the blade attains full speed. Then rest the base flat

on the workpiece and gently move the tool forward along the

previously marked cutting line.
