FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before adjusting or checking function on the
tool.
Portable residual current device (Fig. 1)
Connect the tool to a power supply and test the Portable
Residual Current Device (PRCD) before using the tool.
Push the "RESET" or "ON" button and confirm that the
pilot lamp lights. Push the "TEST" button and confirm that
the pilot lamp goes out. Push the "RESET" or "ON" but-
ton again to use the tool.
WARNING:
• Do not use the tool if the pilot lamp does not go out
when the "TEST" button is pushed.
Adjusting the depth of cut (Fig. 2)
Loosen the wing bolt on the depth guide and move the
base up or down. At the desired depth of cut, secure the
base by tightening the wing bolt.
CAUTION:
• After adjusting the depth of cut, always tighten the wing
bolt securely.
Adjusting bevel angle (Fig. 3 & 4)
Loosen the wing nut on the bevel scale plate on the front
of the base. Set for the desired angle (0° – 45°) by tilting
accordingly, then tighten the wing nut securely.
Loosen the wing bolt on the depth guide and move the
base so that the end of the blade case is above the red
line on the depth guide. Then tighten the wing bolt to
secure the base.
NOTE:
• If the end of the blade case is under the red line on the
depth guide, the outer flange may hit the workpiece
when you perform the bevel cut.
Sighting (Fig. 5)
For straight cuts, align the "A" position on the front of the
base with your cutting line. For 45° bevel cuts, align the
"B" position with it.
Switch action (Fig. 6)
CAUTION:
• Before plugging in the tool, always check to see that
the switch trigger actuates properly and returns to the
"OFF" position when released.
To prevent the switch trigger from being accidentally
pulled, a lock-off button is provided.
To start the tool, push in the lock-off button and pull the
switch trigger. Release the switch trigger to stop.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before carrying out any work on the tool.
Installing or removing diamond wheel (Fig. 7 & 8)
Hold the outer flange with the wrench and loosen the hex
socket head bolt clockwise with the hex wrench. Then
remove the hex socket head bolt, outer flange and dia-
mond wheel.
Install the diamond wheel, outer flange and hex socket
head bolt onto the spindle. Hold the outer flange with the
wrench and tighten the hex socket head bolt counter-
clockwise with the hex wrench. BE SURE TO TIGHTEN
THE HEX SOCKET HEAD BOLT SECURELY.
CAUTION:
• Use only the Makita wrench to install or remove the
wheel.
Installing water pipe (Fig. 9)
First, unplug the tool. Loosen the wing bolt on the depth
guide and move the base down. Install the water pipe on
the blade case using the screw.
Attach the vinyl tube onto the water pipe and attach the
adapter on the vinyl tube to a faucet of water mains pres-
sure. Adjust the amount of water flow by simply adjusting
the water cock.
Installing cover (A) (Fig. 10)
Install the cover (A) on the tool so that its side with
"Upside " mark faces upward.
OPERATION (Fig. 11)
Adjust the amount of water flow. Hold the tool firmly. Set
the base plate on the workpiece to be cut without the
wheel making any contact. Then turn the tool on and wait
until the wheel attains full speed. Now simply move the
tool forward over the workpiece surface, keeping it flat
and advancing smoothly until the cutting is completed.
Keep your cutting line straight and your speed of
advance uniform.
CAUTION:
• THIS TOOL SHOULD ONLY BE USED ON HORIZON-
TAL SURFACES.
• Be sure to move the tool forward in a straight line and
gently. Forcing and exerting excessive pressure or
allowing the wheel to bend, pinch or twist in the cut can
cause overheating of the motor and dangerous kick-
back of the tool.
• Since excessive cutting may cause overload of the
motor, the depth of cut should not be more than 20 mm
at a pass. When you wish to cut more than 20 mm
deep, make a couple of passes with progressively
deeper settings.

MAINTENANCE

CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or
maintenance.
• Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or the
like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may result.
