Auxiliary wood facing (miter gauge)
To prevent a long board from wobbling, fit the miter
gauge with an auxiliary fence board. Fasten with bolts/
nuts after drilling holes, but fasteners must not protrude
from the face board.
Non-through cut
Turn off the tool and unplug it before any adjustment.
Remove the blade guard assembly from the riving knife/
spreader.
Adjust the riving knife/spreader to the RIVING KNIFE
POSITION as described earlier in the manual. Before
making a through cut adjust the riving knife/spreader
to the spreader position and install the blade guard
assembly and the side guards before operation.
WARNING:
• Conducting a through cut without proper
guarding may result in serious personal
injury.
Carrying tool
Carry the tool by holding the tool part shown in the
figure.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off
and unplugged before attempting to perform
inspection or maintenance.
NOTICE:

alcohol or the like. Discoloration, deformation or
cracks may result.
Cleaning
Clean out sawdust and chips from time to time. Carefully
clean the blade guard and moving parts inside the table saw.
Lubrication
To keep the table saw in tip-top running condition, and
to assure maximum service life, oil or grease the mov-
ing parts and rotating parts from time to time.
Lubrication places:
• Threaded shaft to elevate the blade
• Hinge to rotate the frame
• Elevation guide shafts on motor
• Gear to elevate the blade
• Guide rails for the rip fence

Replacing carbon brushes
► 1. Limit mark
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. To replace
the carbon brushes, remove the blade guard and blade and
then loosen the lock lever, tilt the saw head and secure it at
45° bevel angle. Carefully lay the tool on itself backward. Then
loosen the brush holder cap. Remove the worn carbon brushes,
insert the new ones and secure the brush holder caps.
After replacing brushes, plug in the tool and break in
brushes by running tool with no load for about 10 minutes.
Then check the tool while running and electric brake opera-
tion when releasing the switch trigger. If electric brake is not
working well, ask your local Makita service center to repair.
