INSTALLATION

Bench mounting

When the tool is shipped, the handle is locked in the

lowered position by the stopper pin. Release the stopper

pin by lowering the handle slightly and pulling the stopper

pin. (Fig. 1)

This tool should be bolted with four bolts to a level and

stable surface using the bolt holes provided in the tool’s

base. This will help prevent tipping and possible injury.

(Fig. 2)

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

CAUTION:

•Always be sure that the tool is switched off and

unplugged before adjusting or checking function on the

tool.

Blade guard (Fig. 3)

When lowering the handle, the blade guard rises

automatically. The blade guard returns to its original

position when the cut is completed and the handle is

raised. NEVER DEFEAT OR REMOVE THE BLADE

GUARD OR THE SPRING WHICH ATTACHES TO THE

GUARD.

In the interest of your personal safety, always maintain the

blade guard in good condition. Any irregular operation of

the blade guard should be corrected immediately. Check

to assure spring loaded return action of guard. NEVER

USE THE TOOL IF THE BLADE GUARD OR SPRING

ARE DAMAGED, FAULTY OR REMOVED. DOING SO IS

HIGHLY DANGEROUS AND CAN CAUSE SERIOUS

PERSONAL INJURY.

If the see-through blade guard becomes dirty, or sawdust

adheres to it in such a way that the blade and/or

workpiece is no longer easily visible, unplug the saw and

clean the guard carefully with a damp cloth. Do not use

solvents or any petroleum-based cleaners on the plastic

guard.

If the blade guard is especially dirty and vision through the

guard is impaired, use the supplied socket wrench to

loosen the hex bolt holding the center cover. Loosen the

hex bolt by turning it counterclockwise and raise the blade

guard and center cover. With the blade guard so

positioned, cleaning can be more completely and

efficiently accomplished. When cleaning is complete,

reverse procedure above and secure bolt. Do not remove

spring holding blade guard. If guard becomes discolored

through age or UV light exposure, contact a Makita

service center for a new guard. DO NOT DEFEAT OR

REMOVE GUARD. (Fig. 4)

Positioning kerf board (Fig. 5 & 6)

This tool is provided with the kerf boards in the turn base

to minimize tearing on the exit side of a cut. The kerf

boards are factory adjusted so that the saw blade does

not contact the kerf boards. Before use, adjust the kerf

boards as follows:

First, unplug the tool. Loosen all the screws (2 each on left

and right) securing the kerf boards. Re-tighten them only

to the extent that the kerf boards can still be easily moved

by hand. Lower the handle fully and push in the stopper

pin to lock the handle in the lowered position. Loosen the

knob which secures the slide poles. Pull the carriage

toward you fully. Adjust the kerf boards so that the kerf

boards just contact the sides of the blade teeth. Tighten

the front screws (do not tighten firmly). Push the carriage

toward the guide fence fully and adjust the kerf boards so

that the kerf boards just contact the sides of blade teeth.

Tighten the rear screws (do not tighten firmly).

After adjusting the kerf boards, release the stopper pin

and raise the handle. Then tighten all the screws securely.

CAUTION:

•Before and after changing the bevel angle, always

adjust the kerf boards as described above.

hole diameter, replace the silver ring with the black

ring. Before mounting the blade onto the spindle,

always be sure that the correct ring for the arbor hole of

the blade you intend to use is installed between the

inner and outer flanges.

For European countries

CAUTION:

•The ring 30mm in outer diameter is factory-installed

between the inner and outer flanges.

Install the outer flange and hex bolt, and then use the

socket wrench to tighten the hex bolt securely

counterclockwise while pressing the shaft lock.

Return the blade guard and center cover to its original

position. Then tighten the hex bolt clockwise to secure the

center cover. Release the handle from the raised position

by pulling the stopper pin. Lower the handle to make sure

that the blade guard moves properly. Make sure shaft lock

has released spindle before making cut. (Fig. 21)

Dust bag (accessory) (Fig. 25)

The use of the dust bag makes cutting operations clean

and dust collection easy. To attach the dust bag, insert the

dust nozzle into the dust spout on the blade case and fit

the bag’s entry port over the dust nozzle.

When the dust bag is about half full, remove the dust bag

from the tool and pull the fastener out. Empty the dust bag

of its contents, tapping it lightly so as to remove particles

adhering to the insides which might hamper further

collection.

NOTE:

If you connect a vacuum cleaner to your saw, more

efficient and cleaner operations can be performed.

Dust box (accessory) (Fig. 26)

Insert the dust box into the dust nozzle.

Empty the dust box at the earliest possible.

To e mp ty th e d us t b ox , o pe n t he c ove r b y p us hi ng t h e

button and throw away sawdust. Return the cover to the

original position and it locks. Dust box can easily be

removed by pulling out while turning it near the dust

nozzle on the tool.

NOTE:

•If you connect a Makita vacuum cleaner to this tool,

more efficient and cleaner operations can be

performed.

CAUTION:

•Empty the dust box before collected sawdust level

reaches the cylinder part. (Fig. 27 & 28)

Securing workpiece

WARNING:

•It is extremely important to always secure the

workpiece properly and tightly with the vise. Failure to

do so can cause the tool to be damaged and/or the

workpiece to be destroyed. PERSONAL INJURY MAY

ALSO RESULT. Also, after a cutting operation, DO

NOT raise the blade until the blade has come to a

complete stop.

CAUTION:

•When cutting long workpieces, use supports that are as

high as the top surface level of the turn base. Do not

rely solely on the vertical vise and/or horizontal vise to

secure the workpiece.

Thin material tends to sag. Support workpiece over its

entire length to avoid blade pinch and possible

KICKBACK. (Fig. 29)

Sub-fence (Fig. 30)

This tool is equipped with the sub-fence which should

ordinarily be positioned as shown in the figure.

However, when performing left bevel cuts, set it to the left

position as shown in the figure.

CAUTION:

• When performing left bevel cuts, flip the fence over to

the left position as shown in the figure. Otherwise, it will

contact the blade or a part of the tool, causing possible

serious injury to the operator. (Fig. 31)

Sub-fence R (Fig. 32)

The sub-fence R can be installed on the right side of the

guide fence. Insert the rods of the sub-fence R into the

holes in the guide fence. Tighten the screws which come

with the sub-fence R to secure the sub-fence R.

CAUTION:

• When performing right bevel cuts, never use the sub-

fence R. It will contact the blade or a part of the tool,

causing possible serious injury to the operator.

Vertical vise (Fig. 33 & 34)

The vertical vise can be installed in two positions on either

the left or right side of the guide fence. Insert the vise rod

into the hole in the guide fence and tighten the screw on

the back of the guide fence to secure the vise rod.

The vertical vise can also be secured to the rod on the

right side of the sub-fence R.

Position the vise arm according to the thickness and

shape of the workpiece and secure the vise arm by

tightening the screw. If the screw to secure the vise arm

contacts the guide fence, install the screw on the opposite

side of vise arm. Make sure that no part of the tool

contacts the vise when lowering the handle fully and

pulling or pushing the carriage all the way. If some part

contacts the vise, re-position the vise.

Press the workpiece flat against the guide fence and the

turn base. Position the workpiece at the desired cutting

position and secure it firmly by tightening the vise knob.

CAUTION:

•The workpiece must be secured firmly against the turn

base and guide fence with the vise during all

operations.

Horizontal vise (optional accessory)

(Fig. 35)

The horizontal vise can be installed in two positions on

either the left or right side of the base. When performing

15° or greater miter cuts, install the horizontal vise on the

side opposite the direction in which the turn base is to be

turned. (Fig. 36)

By flipping the vise nut to the left, the vise is released, and

rapidly moves in and out. To grip the workpiece, push the

vise knob forward until the vise plate contacts the

workpiece and flip the vise nut to the right. Then turn the

vise knob clockwise to secure the workpiece.

The maximum width of workpiece which can be secured

by the horizontal vise is 200 mm.

When installing the horizontal vise on the right side of the

base, also use the sub-fence R to secure the workpiece

more firmly. Refer to the “Sub-fence R” section described

on previously for installing the sub-fence R.

CAUTION:

•Always rotate the vise nut to the right fully when

securing the workpiece. Failure to do so may result in

insufficient securing of the workpiece. This could cause

the workpiece to be thrown, cause damage to the blade

or cause the loss of control, which can result in

PERSONAL INJURY.

Holders (Fig. 37)

The holders can be installed on either side as a

convenient means of holding workpieces horizontally. Slip

the holder rods into the holes in the base and adjust their

length according to the workpiece to be held. Then tighten

the holders securely with the screws.

CAUTION:

•Always support long workpieces level with the top

surface of the turn base for accurate cuts and to

prevent dangerous loss of control of the tool.

Kerf block (optional accessory) (Fig. 38)

CAUTION:

•When using the kerf block, always cut at the same

miter angle.

•When changing the miter angle, use other kerf blocks.

• When performing bevel cuts, never use the kerf block.

Failure to do so splits the block, causing a serious injury to

operator.

When you use the kerf block at 90° cutting, you can

splinter-free cut in workpiece on the side of the guide

fence (height of the workpiece is up to 35 mm). Install the

kerf block onto the guide fence by means of the two

screws. (Adjust the guide fence and the kerf block so that

they contact their faces. Then tighten the screws

securely.) (Fig. 39)

OPERATION

CAUTION:

•Before use, be sure to release the handle from the

lowered position by pulling the stopper pin.

•Make sure the blade is not contacting the workpiece,

etc. before the switch is turned on.

•Do not apply excessive pressure on the handle when

cutting. Too much force may result in overload of the

motor and/or decreased cutting efficiency. Push down

handle with only as much force as is necessary for

smooth cutting and without significant decrease in

blade speed.

•Gently press down the handle to perform the cut. If the

handle is pressed down with force or if lateral force is

applied, the blade will vibrate and leave a mark (saw

mark) in the workpiece and the precision of the cut will

be impaired.

•During a slide cut, gently push the carriage toward the

guide fence without stopping. If the carriage movement

is stopped during the cut, a mark will be left in the

workpiece and the precision of the cut will be impaired.

1. Press cutting (cutting small workpieces) (Fig. 40)

Workpieces up to 115 mm high and 75 mm wide can be

cut in the following way.

Push the carriage toward the guide fence fully and

tighten the knob clockwise to secure the carriage.

Secure the workpiece with the vise. Switch on the tool

without the blade making any contact and wait until the

blade attains full speed before lowering. Then gently

lower the handle to the fully lowered position to cut the

workpiece. When the cut is completed, switch off the

tool and WAIT UNTIL THE BLADE HAS COME TO A

COMPLETE STOP before returning the blade to its

fully elevated position.

CAUTION:

•Firmly tighten the knob clockwise so that the carriage

will not move during operation. Insufficient tightening

may cause unexpected kickback of the blade. Possible

serious PERSONAL INJURY may result.

2. Slide (push) cutting (cutting wide workpieces)

(Fig. 41)

Loosen the knob counterclockwise so that the carriage

can slide freely. Secure the workpiece with the vise.

Pull the carriage toward you fully. Switch on the tool

without the blade making any contact and wait until the

blade attains full speed. Press down the handle and

PUSH THE CARRIAGE TOWARD THE GUIDE

FENCE AND THROUGH THE WORKPIECE. When

the cut is completed, switch off the tool and WAIT

UNTIL THE BLADE HAS COME TO A COMPLETE

STOP before returning the blade to its fully elevated

position.

CAUTION:

•Whenever performing the slide cut, FIRST PULL THE

CARRIAGE TOWARD YOU FULLY and press down

the handle to the fully lowered position, then PUSH

THE CARRIAGE TOWARD THE GUIDE FENCE.

NEVER START THE CUT WITH THE CARRIAGE NOT

FULLY PULLED TOWARD YOU. If you perform the

slide cut without pulling the carriage fully or if you

perform the slide cut toward your direction, the blade

may kickback unexpectedly with the potential to cause

serious PERSONAL INJURY.

•Never perform the slide cut with the handle locked in

the lowered position by pressing the stopper pin.

•Never loosen the knob which secures the carriage

while the blade is rotating. This may cause serious

injury.

3. Miter cutting

Refer to the previously covered “Adjusting the miter

angle”.

4. Bevel cut (Fig. 42)

Loosen the lever and tilt the saw blade to set the bevel

angle (Refer to the previously covered “Adjusting the

bevel angle”). Be sure to retighten the lever firmly to

secure the selected bevel angle safely. Secure the

workpiece with a vise. Make sure the carriage is pulled

all the way back toward the operator. Switch on the tool

without the blade making any contact and wait until the

blade attains full speed. Then gently lower the handle

to the fully lowered position while applying pressure in

parallel with the blade and PUSH THE CARRIAGE

TOWARD THE GUIDE FENCE TO CUT THE

WORKPIECE. When the cut is completed, switch off

the tool and WAIT UNTIL THE BLADE HAS COME TO

A COMPLETE STOP before returning the blade to its

fully elevated position.

CAUTION:

•Always be sure that the blade will move down to bevel

direction during a bevel cut. Keep hands out of path of

saw blade.

•During a bevel cut, it may create a condition whereby

the piece cut off will come to rest against the side of the

blade. If the blade is raised while the blade is still

rotating, this piece may be caught by the blade,

causing fragments to be scattered which is dangerous.

The blade should be raised ONLY after the blade has

come to a complete stop.

•When pressing down the handle, apply pressure in

parallel with the blade. If a force is applied

perpendicularly to the turn base or if the pressure

direction is changed during a cut, the precision of the

cut will be impaired.

•Always set the sub-fence to the left position when

performing left bevel cuts.

5. Compound cutting

Compound cutting is the process in which a bevel

angle is made at the same time in which a miter angle

is being cut on a workpiece. Compound cutting can be

performed at angle shown in the table.

006484

At the miter angle of left 45° and bevel angle of left 45°,

workpieces up to 66 mm high and 170 mm wide can be

cut.

At the miter angle of right 45° and bevel angle of left

45°, workpieces up to 66 mm high and 215 mm wide

can be cut.

At the miter angle of left and right 45° and bevel angle

of right 45°, workpieces up to 45 mm high and 215 mm

wide can be cut.

When performing compound cutting, refer to “Press

cutting”, “Slide cutting”, “Miter cutting” and “Bevel cut”

explanations.

Miter angle Bevel angle

Left and Right 45° Left and Right 0° - 45°

Left 47° Left 0° - 45° and Right 0° - 40°

Right 52° Left 0° - 30° and Right 0° - 45°

6. Cutting aluminum extrusion (Fig. 43 & 44)

When securing aluminum extrusions, use spacer

blocks or pieces of scrap as shown in the figure to

prevent deformation of the aluminum. Use a cutting

lubricant when cutting the aluminum extrusion to

prevent build-up of the aluminum material on the blade.

CAUTION:

•Never attempt to cut thick or round aluminum

extrusions. Thick aluminum extrusions may come

loose during operation and round aluminum extrusions

cannot be secured firmly with this tool.

7. Wood facing

Use of wood facing helps to assure splinter-free cuts in

workpieces. Attach a wood facing to the guide fence

using the holes in the guide fence and 6 mm screws.

See the figure concerning the dimensions for a

suggested wood facing. (Fig. 45)

CAUTION:

•Use straight wood of even thickness as the wood

facing.

•When cutting workpieces from 115 mm to 120 mm

high, use a wood facing to prevent a portion of the

workpiece near the guide fence from being left uncut.

Example:

When cutting workpieces 120 mm high, use a wood

facing with the following thickness.

006476

CAUTION:

•Use screws to attach the wood facing to the guide

fence. The screws should be installed so that the screw

heads are below the surface of the wood facing.

•When the wood facing is attached, do not turn the turn

base with the handle lowered. The blade and/or the

wood facing will be damaged.

8. Groove cutting (Fig. 46)

A dado type cut can be made by proceeding as follows:

Adjust the lower limit position of the blade using the

adjusting screw and the stopper arm to limit the cutting

depth of the blade. Refer to “Stopper arm” section

described previously.

After adjusting the lower limit position of the blade, cut

parallel grooves across the width of the workpiece

using a slide (push) cut as shown in the figure. Then

remove the workpiece material between the grooves

with a chisel. Do not attempt to perform this type of cut

using wide (thick) blades or with a dado blade. Possible

loss of control and injury may result.

CAUTION:

•Be sure to return the stopper arm to the original

position when performing other than groove cutting.

Carrying tool (Fig. 1)

Make sure that the tool is unplugged. Secure the blade at

0° bevel angle and the turn base at right miter angle fully.

Secure the slide poles after pulling the carriage toward

you fully. Lower the handle fully and lock it in the lowered

position by pushing in the stopper pin.

Carry the tool by holding both sides of the tool base as

shown in the figure. If you remove the holders, dust bag,

etc., you can carry the tool more easily. (Fig. 47)
