Optional Accessories - Makita 5008MG Manual De Instrucciones

To remove the blade, press the shaft lock so that the
blade cannot revolve and use the hex wrench to loosen
the hex bolt counterclockwise. Then remove the hex bolt,
outer flange and blade.
To install the blade, follow the removal procedure in
reverse. BE SURE TO TIGHTEN THE HEX BOLT
CLOCKWISE SECURELY. (Fig. 15)
When changing blade, make sure to also clean upper and
lower blade guards of accumulated sawdust. Such efforts
do not, however, replace the need to check lower guard
operation before each use.
Connecting a vacuum cleaner (Fig. 16)
When you wish to perform clean cutting operation,
connect a Makita vacuum cleaner to your tool. Install the
joint on the tool using the screws. Then connect a hose of
the vacuum cleaner to the joint as shown in the figure.
OPERATION
CAUTION:
• Be sure to move the tool forward in a straight line
gently. Forcing or twisting the tool will result in
overheating the motor and dangerous kickback,
possibly causing severe injury. (Fig. 17)
Always use a front grip and rear handle and firmly hold the
tool by both the front grip and rear handle during
operations. The tool is provided with both the front grip
and rear handle. If both hands are holding saw, they
cannot be cut by the blade. Set the base on the workpiece
to be cut without the blade making any contact. Then turn
the tool on and wait until the blade attains full speed. Now
simply move the tool forward over the workpiece surface,
keeping it flat and advancing smoothly until the sawing is
completed.
To get clean cuts, keep your sawing line straight and your
speed of advance uniform. If the cut fails to properly follow
your intended cut line, do not attempt to turn or force the
tool back to the cut line. Doing so may bind the blade and
lead to dangerous kickback and possible serious injury.
Release switch, wait for blade to stop and then withdraw
tool. Realign tool on new cut line, and start cut again.
Attempt to avoid positioning which exposes operator to
chips and wood dust being ejected from saw. Use eye
protection to help avoid injury.
Rip fence (guide rule) (Accessory)
(Fig. 18)
The handy rip fence allows you to do extra-accurate
straight cuts. Simply slide the rip fence up snugly against
the side of the workpiece and secure it in position with the
screw on the front of the base. It also makes repeated
cuts of uniform width possible.
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.

Adjusting for accuracy of 90° cut (vertical
cut)
This adjustment has been made at the factory. But if it is
off, adjust the adjusting screw with a hex wrench while
squaring the blade with the base using a triangular rule,
try square, etc. (Fig. 19 & 20)
Replacing carbon brushes (Fig. 21)
Remove and check the carbon brushes regularly. Replace
when they wear down to the limit mark. Keep the carbon
brushes clean and free to slip in the holders. Both carbon
brushes should be replaced at the same time.
Use only identical carbon brushes. Use a screwdriver to
remove the brush holder caps. Take out the worn carbon
brushes, insert the new ones and secure the brush holder
caps. (Fig. 22)
To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,
any other maintenance or adjustment should be
performed by Makita Authorized Service Centers, always
using Makita replacement parts.
