OPERATION
Switch action
CAUTION:
•Before plugging in the tool, always check to see that the switch trigger actuates properly and returns to the “OFF” position when released.
To start the tool, simply pull the switch trigger. Release the switch trigger to stop.
CAUTION:
•Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before carrying out any work on the tool.
Removing or installing saw blade
CAUTION:
•Be sure the blade is installed with teeth pointing up at the front of the tool.
•Use only the Makita wrench to install or remove the blade.
To remove the blade, press the shaft lock so that the blade cannot revolve and use the wrench to loosen the hex bolt counterclockwise. Then remove the hex bolt, outer flange and blade.
To install the blade, follow the removal procedure in reverse.
BE SURE TO TIGHTEN THE HEX BOLT CLOCKWISE SECURELY.
When changing blade, make sure to also clean upper and lower blade guards of accumulated sawdust. Such efforts do not, however, replace the need to check lower guard opera- tion before each use.
CAUTION:
•Be sure to move the tool forward in a straight line gently. Forcing or twisting the tool will result in overheating the motor and dangerous kickback, possibly causing severe injury.
