Operation with abrasive cut-off / diamond wheel (optional accessory) (Fig. 8)
The direction for mounting the lock nut and the inner flange varies by wheel thickness.
Refer to the table below.
WARNING:
• When using an abrasive cut-off / diamond wheel, be
sure to use only the special wheel guard designed for
use with cut-off wheels.
• NEVER use cut-off wheel for side grinding.
• Do not “jam” the wheel or apply excessive pressure. Do
not attempt to make an excessive depth of cut. Over-
stressing the wheel increases the loading and suscepti-
bility to twisting or binding of the wheel in the cut and
the possibility of kickback, wheel breakage and over-
heating of the motor may occur.
• Do not start the cutting operation in the workpiece. Let
the wheel reach full speed and carefully enter into the
cut moving the tool forward over the workpiece surface.
The wheel may bind, walk up or kickback if the power
tool is started in the workpiece.
• During cutting operations, never change the angle of
the wheel. Placing side pressure on the cut-off wheel
(as in grinding) will cause the wheel to crack and break,
causing serious personal injury.
• A diamond wheel shall be operated perpendicular to
the material being cut.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or
maintenance.
• Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or the
like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may result.
Replacing carbon brushes (Fig. 9 & 10)
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. Take
out the worn carbon brushes, insert the new ones and
secure the brush holder caps.
To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,
any other maintenance or adjustment should be per-
formed by Makita Authorized Service Centers, always
using Makita replacement parts.
