WARNING:
NEVER use the tool if it runs when
you simply pull the switch trigger without press-
ing 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.
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.
CAUTION:
Do not pull the switch trigger hard
without pressing in the lock-off button. This can
cause switch breakage.

Dust bag
The use of the dust bag makes cutting operations clean
and dust collection easy. To attach the dust bag, fit it
onto the dust spout.
► Fig.8: 1. Dust bag 2. Dust spout
The neck of the dust spout rotates freely. Position the
dust bag so that you can operate the tool comfortably.
► Fig.9
When the dust bag is about one-third 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 particles adhering to the insides which might
hamper collection.

Connecting the vacuum cleaner
When you wish to perform clean cutting operation,
connect a Makita vacuum cleaner to your tool.

OPERATION
CAUTION:
THIS TOOL SHOULD ONLY BE
USED ON HORIZONTAL SURFACES.
CAUTION:
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 kickback of the tool.
Hold the tool firmly. Set the base plate on the workpiece
to be cut without the diamond wheel making any con-
tact. Then turn the tool on and wait until the diamond
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:
Always be sure that the tool is
switched off and unplugged before attempting to
perform inspection or maintenance.
NOTICE:
Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner,
alcohol or the like. Discoloration, deformation or
cracks may result.
