Manual

Switch action

011329

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.

• Do not pull the switch trigger hard without pressing

the lock-off lever. This can cause switch breakage.

To prevent the switch trigger from being accidentally

pulled, a lock-off lever is provided. To start the tool, slide

the lock-off lever and pull the switch trigger. Release the

switch trigger to stop.

WARNING:

• For your safety, this tool is equipped with lock-off

lever which prevents the tool from unintended

starting. NEVER use the tool if it runs when you

simply pull the switch trigger without pressing the

lock-off lever. Return tool a MAKITA service center

for proper repairs BEFORE further usage.

• NEVER tape down or defeat purpose and function

of lock-off lever.

ASSEMBLY

CAUTION:

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

battery cartridge is removed before carrying out

any work on the tool.

Removing or installing saw blade

011330

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 fully 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.

011331

To install the blade, follow the removal procedure in

reverse. BE SURE TO TIGHTEN THE HEX BOLT

CLOCKWISE SECURELY.

011386

NOTE:

• If a inner flange is removed by chance, install the

inner flange so that its protrusion (bigger side)

faces inside as shown in the figure.

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 operation before each use.

Our support team searches for useful product information and answers to frequently asked questions. If you find an inaccuracy in our frequently asked questions, please let us know by using our contact form.

How many millimeter does the saw need to protrude under the material I'm sawing? Verified

It's best to keep this at 3mm or more. When it is less, there is a chance the material will crumble or lead to an ugly result.

Do I need to wear hearing protection when using a circular saw? Verified

Can I store power tools in a shed or garage? Verified

In general, you can store power tools in a shed or garage, even if it sometimes freezes there. However, it is better for the lifespan of the power tool to store it in a dry place without major temperature fluctuations. In a shed or garage, differences in temperature can cause condensation to form, which can cause rust. In addition, tools that run on batteries last shorter and do not charge as well at very low temperatures. To be sure how your power tool needs to be stored, always thoroughly read the user manual.
