Blade guard

► 1 . Blade guard
When lowering the handle, the blade guard rises automat-
ically. The guard is spring loaded so it returns to its original
position when the cut is completed and the handle is raised.
WARNING:
• Never defeat or remove the blade guard or
the spring which attaches to the guard. An
exposed blade as a result of defeated guarding
may result in serious personal injury during
operation.
In the interest of your personal safety, always maintain
the blade guard in good condition. Any irregular opera-
tion of the blade guard should be corrected immediately.
Check to assure spring loaded return action of guard.
WARNING:
• Never use the tool if the blade guard or
spring are damaged, faulty or removed.
Operation of the tool with a damaged, faulty or
removed guard may result in serious personal
injury.

Cleaning
► 1 . Blade guard
If the transparent blade guard becomes dirty, or saw-
dust adheres to it in such a way that the blade and/or
workpiece is no longer easily visible, remove the battery
cartridge and clean the guard carefully with a damp
cloth. Do not use solvents or any petroleum-based
cleaners on the plastic guard because this may cause
damage to the guard.
For cleaning, raise the blade guard by referring to
"Installing or removing saw blade".
After cleaning, make sure to return the blade and center
cover and tighten the hex socket bolt.
1. Make sure that the tool is switched off and the
battery cartridges are removed.
2. Turn the hex socket bolt counterclockwise using
the supplied hex wrench with holding the center cover.
3. Raise the blade guard and center cover.
4. When cleaning is complete, return the center
cover and tighten the hex socket bolt by performing the
steps above in reverse.
WARNING:
Do not remove spring holding
blade guard. If guard becomes damaged in course
of time or UV light exposure, contact a Makita ser-
vice center for replacement. DO NOT DEFEAT OR
REMOVE GUARD.
