Laser beam action (Fig. 19 & 20)
For model LS0714FL, LS0714L
CAUTION:
• Never look into the laser beam. Direct laser beam may
injure your eyes.
• LASER RADIATION, DO NOT STARE INTO THE
BEAM OR VIEW DIRECTLY WITH OPTICAL INSTRU-
MENTS, CLASS 2M LASER PRODUCT.
To turn on the laser beam, press the upper position (I) of
the switch. Press the lower position (O) to turn off.
Laser line can be shifted to either the left or right side of
the saw blade by adjusting the adjusting screw as fol-
lows.
1. Loosen the adjusting screw by turning it counter-
clockwise.
2. With the adjusting screw loosened, slide the adjust-
ing screw to the right or left as far as it goes.
3. Tighten the adjusting screw firmly at the position
where it stops sliding.
Laser line is factory adjusted so that it is positioned within
1 mm from the side surface of the blade (cutting posi-
tion).
NOTE:
• When laser line is dim and almost or entirely invisible
because of the direct sunlight in the indoor or outdoor
window-by work, relocate the work area to a place not
exposed to the direct sunlight.
Aligning the laser line (Fig. 21)
Laser line can be shifted to either the left or right side of
the blade according to the applications of cutting. Refer
to explanation titled "Laser beam action" regarding its
shifting method.
NOTE:
• Use wood facing against the guide fence when aligning
the cutting line with the laser line at the side of guide
fence in compound cutting (bevel angle 45 degrees and
miter angle right 45 degrees).
A) When you obtain correct size on the left side of work-
piece
• Shift the laser line to the left of the blade.
B) When you obtain correct size on the right side of
workpiece
• Shift the laser line to the right of the blade.
Align the cutting line on your workpiece with the laser
line.
ASSEMBLY
WARNING:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before carrying out any work on the tool.
Hex wrench storage (Fig. 22)
The hex wrench is stored as shown in the figure. When
using the hex wrench, pull it out of the wrench holder.
After using the hex wrench, return it to the wrench holder.
Installing or removing saw blade
WARNING:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before installing or removing the blade.
CAUTION:
• Use only the Makita hex wrench provided to install or
remove the blade. Failure to do so may result in over-
tightening or insufficient tightening of the hex socket
bolt. This could cause an injury.
Lock the handle in the raised position by pushing in the
stopper pin. (Fig. 23)
To remove the blade, use the hex wrench to loosen the
hex socket bolt holding the center cover by turning it
counterclockwise. Raise the blade guard and center
cover. (Fig. 24)
Press the shaft lock to lock the spindle and use the hex
wrench to loosen the hex socket bolt clockwise. Then
remove the hex socket bolt, outer flange and blade.
(Fig. 25)
To install the blade, mount it carefully onto the spindle,
making sure that the direction of the arrow on the surface
of the blade matches the direction of the arrow on the
blade case. Install the outer flange and hex socket bolt,
and then use the hex wrench to tighten the hex socket
bolt (left-handed) securely counterclockwise while press-
ing the shaft lock.
Return the blade guard and center cover to its original
position. Then tighten the hex socket bolt clockwise to
secure the center cover. Release the handle from the
raised position by pulling the stopper pin. Lower the han-
dle to make sure that the blade guard moves properly.
Make sure shaft lock has released spindle before making
cut. (Fig. 26 & 27)
Dust bag (optional accessory) (Fig. 28)
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 par-
ticles 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 per-
formed.
Dust box (optional accessory) (Fig. 29, 30 & 31)
Insert the dust box into the dust nozzle.
Empty the dust box at the earliest possible.
To empty the dust box, open the cover by pushing the
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 noz-
zle on the tool.
NOTE:
• If you connect a Makita vacuum cleaner to this tool,
more efficient and cleaner operations can be per-
formed.
CAUTION:
• Empty the dust box before collected sawdust level
reaches the cylinder part.
