Makita MLS100 Manual De Instrucciones página 6

In the interest of your personal safety, always maintain
the blade guard in good condition. Any irregular
operation of the blade guard should be corrected
immediately. Check to assure spring loaded return
action of guard. NEVER USE THE TOOL IF THE
BLADE GUARD OR SPRING ARE DAMAGED, FAULTY
OR REMOVED. DOING SO IS HIGHLY DANGEROUS
AND CAN CAUSE SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY.
If the see-through blade guard becomes dirty, or
sawdust adheres to it in such a way that the blade
and/or workpiece is no longer easily visible, unplug the
saw and clean the guard carefully with a damp cloth. Do
not use solvents or any petroleum-based cleaners on
the plastic guard.
If the blade guard is especially dirty and vision through
the guard is impaired, use the supplied wrench to loosen
the hex bolt holding the center cover. Loosen the hex
bolt by turning it counterclockwise and raise the blade
guard and center cover. With the blade guard so
positioned, cleaning can be more completely and
efficiently accomplished. When cleaning is complete,
reverse procedure above and secure bolt. Do not
remove spring holding blade guard. If guard becomes
discolored through age or UV light exposure, contact a
Makita service center for a new guard. DO NOT
DEFEAT OR REMOVE GUARD.

Kerf board

This tool is provided with the kerf board in the turn base
to minimize tearing on the exit side of a cut. If the kerf
groove has not yet been cut in the kerf board by the
factory, you should cut the groove before actually using
the tool to cut a workpiece. Switch on the tool and lower
the blade gently to cut a groove in the kerf board.

Maintaining maximum cutting capacity
This tool is factory adjusted to provide the maximum
cutting capacity for a 255 mm (10") saw blade.
When installing a new blade, always check the lower
limit position of the blade and if necessary, adjust it as
follows:
First, unplug the tool. Lower the handle completely. Use
the wrench to turn the adjusting bolt until the periphery of
the blade extends slightly below the top surface of the
turn base at the point where the front face of the guide
fence meets the top surface of the turn base.
