The use of the dust bag makes cutting operations clean
and dust collection easy. To attach the dust bag, fit it
onto 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 Makita vacuum cleaner to
your saw, more efficient and cleaner operations can
be performed.
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.

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 to secure the vise rod.
Position the vise arm according to the thickness and
shape of the workpiece and secure the vise arm by
tightening the screw. Make sure that no part of the tool
contacts the vise when lowering the handle 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.
OPERATION
CAUTION:
Before use, be sure to release the
handle from the lowered position by pulling the
stopper pin.
CAUTION:
Make sure the blade is not con-
tacting the workpiece, etc. before the switch is
turned on.
CAUTION:
Do not apply excessive pressure
on the handle when cutting. Too much force may
result in overload of the motor and/or decreased cut-
ting efficiency. Press down handle with only as much
force as necessary for smooth cutting and without
significant decrease in blade speed.
CAUTION:
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 may
vibrate and leave a mark (saw mark) in the workpiece
and the precision of the cut may be impaired.
