OPERATION
This tool is intended to cut wood products only.
Refer to our website or contact your local Makita dealer for the
correct circular saw blades to be used for the material to be cut.
Checking blade guard function
Set the bevel angle to 0°, and then retract the lower
guard manually to the end and release it. The lower
guard is properly functioning if;
— it is retracted above the base without any hindrance and;
— it automatically returns and contacts with the stopper.

If the lower guard is not functioning properly, check if
saw dust is accumulated inside of the upper and lower
guards. If the lower guard is not functioning properly
even after removing dust, have your tool serviced at a
Makita service center.
CAUTION:
Wear dust mask when performing
cutting 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.
NOTE: When the battery cartridge temperature is
low, the tool may not work to its full capacity. At this
time, for example, use the tool for a light-duty cut for
a while until the battery cartridge warms up as high
as room temperature. Then, the tool can work to its
full capacity.

Hold the tool firmly. The tool is provided with both a front
grip and rear handle. Use both to best grasp the tool.
If both hands are holding saw, they cannot be cut by
the circular saw blade. Set the base on the workpiece
to be cut without the circular saw blade making any
contact. Then turn the tool on and wait until the circular
saw 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 prop-
erly follow your intended cut line, do not attempt to turn
or force the tool back to the cut line. Doing so may bind
the circular saw blade and lead to dangerous kickback
and possible serious injury. Release switch, wait for cir-
cular saw 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.
