[. . . ] Make sure the blade is not contacting the workpiece before the switch is turned on. Always switch off and wait for the blade to come to a complete stop before removing the blade from the workpiece. Do not touch the blade or the workpiece immediately after operation; they may be extremely hot and could burn your skin. Do not operate the tool at no-load unnecessarily. [. . . ] Failure to do so may cause insufficient tightening of the blade, resulting in a serious personal injury. €¢ Do not touch the blade or the workpiece immediately after operation; they may be extremely hot and could burn your skin. Using blades other than B type blades causes insufficient tightening of the blade, resulting in a serious personal injury. €¢ When you remove the saw blade, be careful not to hurt your fingers with the top of the blade or the tips of workpiece. Before installing the blade, make sure that the blade clamp lever is in the released position. To install the blade, insert the blade (teeth facing forward) into the blade holder until it latches. The lever moves to the fixed position by itself and the blade is locked. Pull the blade lightly to make sure that the blade does not fall off during operation. CAUTION: • If the lever does not move to the fixed position by itself, the blade is not installed completely. Do not press the lever by hand to the fixed position. Make sure that the back edge of the blade fits into the roller. To remove the blade, push the lever forward as far as it will go. 11) Loosen the bolt on the back of the tool base with the hex wrench, and slide the base all the way back. Then tighten the bolt to secure the tool base. Cutouts Cutouts can be made with either of two methods A or B. A) Boring a starting hole 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. 12) B) Plunge cutting You need not bore a starting hole or make a lead-in cut if you carefully do as follows. Tilt the tool up on the front edge of the base with the blade point positioned just above the workpiece surface. 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. As the blade pierces the workpiece, slowly lower the base of the tool down onto the workpiece surface. 6) To trim edges or make dimensional adjustments, run the blade lightly along the cut edges. [. . . ] 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. To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, carbon brush inspection and replacement, any other maintenance or adjustment should be performed by Makita Authorized Service Centers, always using Makita replacement parts.
