WARNING:

DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with product

(gained from repeated use) replace strict adherence

to safety rules for the subject product. MISUSE or

failure to follow the safety rules stated in this instruc-

tion manual may cause serious personal injury.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

CAUTION:

• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and

unplugged before adjusting or checking function on the

tool.

Adjusting depth of cut (Fig. 1)

CAUTION:

• After adjusting the depth of cut, always tighten the lever

securely.

Loosen the lever on the depth guide and move the base

up or down. At the desired depth of cut, secure the base

by tightening the lever.

For cleaner, safer cuts, set cut depth so that no more

than one blade tooth projects below workpiece. Using

proper cut depth helps to reduce potential for dangerous

KICKBACKS which can cause personal injury.

Bevel cutting (Fig. 2, 3 & 4)

Loosen the front lever and rear wing nut. Set for the

desired angle (0° – 50°) by tilting accordingly, then

tighten the lever and wing nut securely.

Use the 45° stopper when you do precise 45° angle cut-

ting. Turn the stopper clockwise fully for bevel cut (0° –

45°) and turn it counterclockwise for 0° – 50° bevel cuts.

Sighting (Fig. 5)

For straight cuts, align the 0° position on the front of the

base with your cutting line. For 45° bevel cuts, align the

45° position with it. The position of the top guide is

adjustable.

Switch action (Fig. 6)

CAUTION:

• Before plugging in the tool, always check to see that

the switch trigger actuates properly and returns to the

“OFF” position when released.

To prevent the switch trigger from being accidentally

pulled, a lock-off button is provided. To start the tool,

push in the lock-off button and pull the switch trigger.

Release the switch trigger to stop.

Do not pull the switch lever hard without pulling the lock-

off lever. This can cause switch breakage.

For Model HS6101, HS7101

Lighting the lamp (Fig. 7)

CAUTION:

• Do not look in the light or see the source of light

directly.

The lamp lights up when the tool is plugged. The lamp

keeps on lighting until the tool is unplugged.

NOTE:

• Use a dry cloth to wipe the dirt off the lens of lamp. Be

careful not to scratch the lens of lamp, or it may lower

the illumination.

• Do not use gasoline, thinner or the like to clean the lens

of lamp. Using such substances will damage the lens.

ASSEMBLY

CAUTION:

• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and

unplugged before carrying out any work on the tool.

Removing or installing saw blade (Fig. 8)

CAUTION:

• Be sure the blade is installed with teeth pointing up at

the front of the tool.

• Use only the Makita wrench to install or remove the

blade.

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.

For tool with the inner flange for a 15.88 mm hole-

diameter saw blade (Fig. 9)

Mount the inner flange with its recessed side facing out-

ward onto the mounting shaft and then place saw blade,

outer flange and hex bolt.

BE SURE TO TIGHTEN THE HEX BOLT CLOCKWISE

SECURELY.

For tool with the inner flange for other than 15.88 mm

hole-diameter saw blade (Fig. 10)

The inner flange has a certain diameter protrusion on

one side of it and a different diameter protrusion on the

other side. Choose a correct side on which protrusion fits

into the saw blade hole perfectly.

Next, mount the inner flange onto the mounting shaft so

that the correct side of protrusion on the inner flange

faces outward and then place saw blade and outer

flange.

BE SURE TO TIGHTEN THE HEX BOLT CLOCKWISE

SECURELY.

CAUTION:

• Make sure that the protrusion “a” on the inner

flange that is positioned outside fits into the saw

blade hole “a” perfectly. Mounting the blade on the

wrong side can result in the dangerous vibration.

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. (Fig. 11)

Hex wrench storage (Fig. 12)

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

figure to keep it from being lost.

Connecting a vacuum cleaner (Fig. 13 & 14)

When you wish to perform clean cutting operation, con-

nect a Makita vacuum cleaner to your tool. Install the

dust nozzle on the tool using the screw. Then connect a

hose of the vacuum cleaner to the dust nozzle as shown

in the figure.
