MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or
maintenance.
WARNING:
• Always be sure that the blade is sharp and clean for the
best and safest performance.
Adjusting the cutting angle
This tool is carefully adjusted and aligned at the factory,
but rough handling may have affected the alignment. If
your tool is not aligned properly, perform the following:
1. Miter angle
Miter angle 0° adjusting bolts are located in four posi-
tions.
Loosen four miter angle 0° adjusting bolts by turning
counterclockwise from the underside of the table.
(Fig. 68)
Lower the handle fully and lock it in the lowered posi-
tion by pulling and rotating the stopper pin to the angle
of 90° clockwise. Square the side of the blade with the
face of the guide fence using a triangular rule, try-
square, etc. Then securely tighten the four adjusting
bolts on the sub arm from the underside of the table.
Make sure that the pointer points to 0° on the miter
scale. If not so, adjust the pointer position by loosen-
ing the screw securing the pointer. After adjusting it,
securely tighten the screw. (Fig. 69)
2. Bevel angle
(1) 0° bevel angle
Lower the handle fully and lock it in the lowered
position by pulling and rotating the stopper pin to
the angle of 90° clockwise. Loosen the lever at
the rear of the tool.
Turn, from the underside of the table, the 0° bevel
angle adjusting bolt on the right side of the sub
arm two or three revolutions counterclockwise to
tilt the blade to the right. (Fig. 70)
Carefully square the side of the blade with the top
surface of the turn table using the triangular rule,
try-square, etc. by turning the 0° bevel angle
adjusting bolt clockwise. (Fig. 71)
Make sure that the pointer on the turn table point
to 0° on the bevel scale on the arm. If it does not
point to 0°, loosen the screw which secures the
pointer and adjust the pointer so that it will point
to 0°.
(2) 45° bevel angle
Adjust the 45° bevel angle only after performing
0° bevel angle adjustment. To adjust left 45° bevel
angle, loosen the lever and tilt the blade to the left
fully. Make sure that the pointer on the arm points
to 45° on the bevel scale on the arm. If the pointer
does not point to 45°, turn, from the underside of
the table, the 45° bevel angle adjusting bolt on the
left side of the sub arm until the pointer points to
45°. (Fig. 72)

Replacing carbon brushes (Fig. 73 & 74)
Remove and check the carbon brushes regularly.
Replace when they wear down to the limit mark. Keep
the carbon brushes clean and free to slip in the holders.
Both carbon brushes should be replaced at the same
time. Use only identical carbon brushes.
Use a screwdriver to remove the brush holder caps. Take
out the worn carbon brushes, insert the new ones and
secure the brush holder caps.
After use
• After use, wipe off chips and dust adhering to the tool
with a cloth or the like to assure maximum service life.
Keep the blade guards clean according to the direc-
tions in the previously covered section titled "Blade
guard". Lubricate the sliding portions with machine oil
to prevent rust.
To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,
any other maintenance or adjustment should be per-
formed by Makita Authorized Service Centers, always
using Makita replacement parts.
