CAUTION:

•Before inserting the battery cartridge into the tool,

always check to see that the switch trigger actuates

properly and returns to the “OFF” position when

released.

To prevent the switch trigger from being accidentally pulled, a

lock-off button is provided. To start the tool, push in the lock-

off button and pull the switch trigger. Release the switch trig-

ger to stop.

This tool is equipped with an electric blade brake. If the tool

consistently fails to quickly stop blade after switch trigger

release, have tool serviced at a Makita service center.

The blade brake system is not a substitute for lower guard.

NEVER USE TOOL WITHOUT A FUNCTIONING LOWER

GUARD. SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY CAN RESULT.

ASSEMBLY CAUTION:

•Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the

battery cartridge is removed before carrying out any

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
