nameplate on the tool for the rated voltage.
• When the load on the tool exceeds admissible levels,
power to the motor is reduced to protect the motor from
overheating. When the load returns to admissible lev-
els, the tool will operate as normal.

Installing or removing saw blade
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before installing or removing the blade.
• 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.
Move up the handle in the fully raised position.
Press the shaft lock to lock the spindle, use the hex
wrench to loosen the hex socket bolt clockwise. (Fig. 20)
Raise the blade guard A with its lifting lever while pushing
the lever nearby the handle to the left. With the blade
guard A raised, remove the hex socket bolt, outer flange
and blade. (Fig. 21)
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. (Fig. 22 & 23)
NOTE:
• When installing a saw blade, be sure to insert it
between the blade guard B at first and then raise it so
that the blade is finally placed in the blade guard B.
CAUTION:
• The ring 25.4 mm or 30 mm in outer diameter is fac-
tory-installed onto the spindle. Before mounting the
blade onto the spindle, always be sure that the correct
ring for the arbor hole of the blade you intend to use is
installed onto the spindle. (Fig. 24)
Return the lower blade guard A to its original position.
Lower the handle to make sure that the lower blade
guards move properly. Make sure shaft lock has released
spindle before making cut.
Adjusting riving knife
There must be a clearance of about 5 – 6 mm between
the riving knife and the blade teeth when pushing the riv-
ing knife toward the blade fully. Adjust the riving knife
accordingly by first loosening clamping nut by hand coun-
terclockwise and then loosening hex socket bolt counter-
clockwise with the hex wrench, and measuring the
distance. After adjustment, securely tighten the hex
socket bolt and then the clamping nut clockwise. Always
check to see that the riving knife is secured and that the
top blade guard works smoothly before cutting. (Fig. 25
& 26)
The riving knife has been installed before shipment from
the factory so that the blade and riving knife are in a
straight line after your simple set-up. Refer to the section
titled "Repositioning riving knife" for the set-up. (Fig. 27)
