Safety cover
When lowering the handle, the safety cover
rises automatically. The cover returns to its
original position when the cut is completed
and the handle is raised. NEVER DEFEAT
OR REMOVE THE SAFETY COVER. In the
interest of your personal safety, always
maintain the safety cover in good condition.
Any irregular operation of the safety cover
should be corrected immediately. NEVER
USE THE TOOL WITH A FAULTY SAFETY
COVER. If the see-through safety cover
becomes dirty, or sawdust adheres to it in
such a way that the blade and/or workpiece
'
cover
is no longer easily visible, remove the battery cartridge and clean the cover carefully with a
damp cloth. Do not use solvents or any petroleum-based cleaners on the plastic cover.
Dust bag
The use of the dust bag makes cutting
operations clean and dust collection easy.
To attach the dust bag, fit the bag's entry
port over the dust nozzle. When the dust
bag is about half full, remove the dust bag
from the tool and pull the fastener out.
Empty the dust bag of its contents, tapping
it lightly so as to remove particles adhering
to
the insides which might hamper further
collection.

NOTE:
If you connect a Makita vacuum cleaner to your saw, more efficient and cleaner opera-
tions can be performed.
