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.

► 1. Vacuum cleaner
When you wish to perform clean cutting operation,
connect a Makita vacuum cleaner to your tool.
Install the dust nozzle on the tool using the screw. Then connect a
hose of the vacuum cleaner to the dust nozzle as shown in the figure.
For tool without dust nozzle provided as a standard equipment,
replace the lever fixed on the lower guard to the one supplied with
the dust nozzle (optional accessory) at the same time when install-
ing the dust nozzle. Otherwise you will not be able to make a cut
because the lower guard movement is hindered by the dust nozzle.

OPERATION
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 kick-
back, possibly causing severe injury.

► 1. Base 2. Rear handle 3. Front grip
Hold the tool firmly. The tool is provided with both a front
grip and rear handle. Use both to best grasp the tool. If
both hands are holding saw, they cannot be cut by the
blade. Set the base on the workpiece to be cut without
the blade making any contact. Then turn the tool on and
wait until the blade attains full speed. Now simply move
the tool forward over the workpiece surface, keeping it flat
and advancing smoothly until the sawing is completed.
To get clean cuts, keep your sawing line straight and your
speed of advance uniform. If the cut fails to properly follow
your intended cut line, do not attempt to turn or force the tool
back to the cut line. Doing so may bind the blade and lead
to dangerous kickback and possible serious injury. Release
switch, wait for blade to stop and then withdraw tool. Realign
tool on new cut line, and start cut again. Attempt to avoid posi-
tioning which exposes operator to chips and wood dust being
ejected from saw. Use eye protection to help avoid injury.
Rip fence (Guide rule) (optional accessory)

► 1. Rip fence (Guide rule)
The handy rip fence allows you to do extra-accurate
straight cuts. Simply slide the rip fence up snugly
against the side of the workpiece and secure it in
position with the screw on the front of the base. It also
makes repeated cuts of uniform width possible.
