Switch action
WARNING:
Before installing the battery car-
tridge into the tool, always check to see that the
switch trigger actuates properly and returns to
the "OFF" position when released.
WARNING:
NEVER defeat the lock-off button
by taping down or some other means. A switch with
a negated lock-off button may result in unintentional
operation and serious personal injury.
WARNING:
NEVER use the tool if it runs when you
simply pull the switch trigger without pressing the lock-off
button. A switch in need of repair may result in unintentional
operation and serious personal injury. Return tool to a Makita
service center for proper repairs BEFORE further usage.
To prevent the switch trigger from being accidentally
pulled, a lock-off button is provided. To start the tool,
depress the lock-off button and pull the switch trigger.
Release the switch trigger to stop.

NOTICE:
Do not pull the switch trigger hard
without pressing in the lock-off button. This can
cause switch breakage.
CAUTION:
The tool starts to brake the cir-
cular saw blade rotation immediately after you
release the switch trigger. Hold the tool firmly to
respond the reaction of the brake when releasing
the switch trigger. Sudden reaction can drop the tool
off your hand and can cause a personal injury.
Automatic speed change function
This tool has "high speed mode" and "high torque
mode".
The tool automatically changes the operation mode
depending on the work load. When the work load is low,
the tool will run in the "high speed mode" for quicker
cutting operation. When the work load is high, the tool
will run in the "high torque mode" for powerful cutting
operation.

The mode indicator lights up in green when the tool is
running in "high torque mode".
If the tool is operated with excessive load, the mode indicator
will blink in green. The mode indicator stops blinking and then
lights up or turns off if you reduce the load on the tool.

Adjusting depth of cut
CAUTION:
After adjusting the depth of cut,
always tighten the lever securely.
Loosen the lever on the depth guide and move the base
up or down. At the desired depth of cut, secure the base
by tightening the lever.
For cleaner, safer cuts, set cut depth so that no more
than one blade tooth projects below workpiece. Using
proper cut depth helps to reduce potential for danger-
ous KICKBACKS which can cause personal injury.

NOTICE:
If the base doesn't slide up or down
smoothly, the depth guide may have been tilted. In
this case, adjust the depth guide (refer the section
about adjusting the depth guide).

Bevel cutting

CAUTION:
After adjusting the bevel angle,
always tighten the clamping screws securely.
Loosen the clamping screws. Set for the desired angle by
tilting accordingly, then tighten the clamping screws securely.

Positive stopper
The positive stopper is useful for setting the des-
ignated angle quickly. Turn the positive stopper so
that the arrow on it points your desired bevel angle
(22.5°/45°/60°). Loosen the lever and then tilt the tool
base until it stops. The position where the tool base
stops is the angle you set with the positive stopper.
Tighten the lever with the tool base at this position.

-1°-bevel cutting
To perform -1°-bevel cutting, loosen the clamping
screws and press the levers toward the direction of the
arrow in the figure. Then set the bevel angle to -1° and
tighten the clamping screws.
