CAUTION:

• Do not open the tool opener excessively, or it may

cause tool damage. (Fig. 7)

To remove the blade, push the tool opener forward as far

as it will go. This allows the blade to be released.

NOTE:

• Occasionally lubricate the roller.

Hex wrench storage (Fig. 8)

When not in use, store the hex wrench as shown in the

figure to keep it from being lost.

Cover plate (Fig. 9)

Use the cover plate when cutting decorative veneers,

plastics, etc. It protects sensitive or delicate surfaces from

damage. Fit it on the back of the tool base.

Anti-splintering device (Fig. 10)

For splinter-free cuts, the anti-splintering device can be

used. To install the anti-splintering device, move the tool

base all the way forward and fit it from the back of tool

base. When you use the cover plate, install the anti-

splintering device onto the cover plate.

CAUTION:

• The anti-splintering device cannot be used when

making bevel cuts.

Dust extraction

The dust nozzle (optional accessory) is recommended to

perform clean cutting operations. (Fig. 11)

To attach the dust nozzle on the tool, insert the hook of

dust nozzle into the hole in the base. (Fig. 12)

To secure the dust nozzle, tighten the clamp screw at the

front of the dust nozzle.

The dust nozzle can be installed on either left or right side

of the base. (Fig. 13)

Then connect a Makita vacuum cleaner to the dust

nozzle.

OPERATION

CAUTION:

• Always hold the base flush with the workpiece. Failure

to do so may cause blade breakage, resulting in a

serious injury.

NOTE:

• If the tool is operated continuously until the battery

cartridge has discharged, allow the tool to rest for

15 minutes before proceeding with a fresh battery.

(Fig. 14)

Turn the tool on without the blade making any contact and

wait until the blade attains full speed. Then rest the base

flat on the workpiece and gently move the tool forward

along the previously marked cutting line.

When cutting curves, advance the tool very slowly.

Bevel cutting (Fig. 15)

CAUTION:

• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the

battery cartridge is removed before tilting the base.

With the base tilted, you can make bevel cuts at any angle

between 0° and 45° (left or right). (Fig. 16)

To tilt the base, loosen the bolt on the back of the base

with the hex wrench. Move the base so that the bolt is

positioned in the center of the bevel slot in the base.

(Fig. 17)

Tilt the base until the desired bevel angle is obtained. The

V-notch of the gear housing indicates the bevel angle by

graduations. Then tighten the bolt firmly to secure the

base.

Front flush cuts (Fig. 18)

Loosen the bolt on the back of the base with the hex

wrench and slide the base all the way back. Then tighten

the bolt to secure the base.

Cutouts

Cutouts can be made with either of two methods A or B.

A) Boring a starting hole: (Fig. 19)

• For internal cutouts without a lead-in cut from an edge,

pre-drill a starting hole 12 mm or more in diameter.

Insert the blade into this hole to start your cut.

B) Plunge cutting: (Fig. 20)

• You need not bore a starting hole or make a lead-in cut

if you carefully do as follows.

1. Tilt the tool up on the front edge of the base with the

blade point positioned just above the workpiece

surface.

2. Apply pressure to the tool so that the front edge of the

base will not move when you switch on the tool and

gently lower the back end of the tool slowly.

3. As the blade pierces the workpiece, slowly lower the

base of the tool down onto the workpiece surface.

4. Complete the cut in the normal manner.

Finishing edges (Fig. 21)

To trim edges or make dimensional adjustments, run the

blade lightly along the cut edges.

Metal cutting

Always use a suitable coolant (cutting oil) when cutting

metal. Failure to do so will cause significant blade wear.

The underside of the workpiece can be greased instead of

using a coolant.

Rip fence set (optional accessory)

CAUTION:

• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the

battery cartridge is removed before installing or

removing accessories.

1. Straight cuts (Fig. 22)

When repeatedly cutting widths of 160 mm or less, use of

the rip fence will assure fast, clean, straight cuts. (Fig. 23)

To install, insert the rip fence into the rectangular hole on

the side of the tool base with the fence guide facing down.

Slide the rip fence to the desired cutting width position,

then tighten the bolt to secure it.

2. Circular cuts (Fig. 24 & 25)

When cutting circles or arcs of 170 mm or less in radius,

install the rip fence as follows.
