6ENGLISH (Original instructions)Explanation of general viewSPECIFICATIONS• Due to our continuing program of research and development, the specifications herein are subject to change withoutnotice.• Specifications and battery cartridge may differ from country to country.• Weight, with battery cartridge, according to EPTA-Procedure 01/2003Intended use ENE078-2The tool is intended for performing lengthways andcrossways straight cuts and mitre cuts with angles inwood while in firm contact with the workpiece. Withappropriate Makita genuine saw blades, other materialscan also be sawed.General Power Tool SafetyWarnings GEA010-1WARNING Read all safety warnings and allinstructions. Failure to follow the warnings andinstructions may result in electric shock, fire and/orserious injury.Save all warnings andinstructions for future reference.CORDLESS CIRCULAR SAWSAFETY WARNINGS GEB061-4Cutting procedures1. DANGER: Keep hands away from cutting areaand the blade. Keep your second hand onauxiliary handle, or motor housing. If both handsare holding the saw, they cannot be cut by the blade.2. Do not reach underneath the workpiece. The guardcannot protect you from the blade below theworkpiece.3. Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of theworkpiece. Less than a full tooth of the blade teethshould be visible below the workpiece.4. Never hold piece being cut in your hands oracross your leg. Secure the workpiece to a stableplatform. It is important to support the work properlyto minimize body exposure, blade binding, or loss ofcontrol.A typical illustration of proper hand support andworkpiece support. (Fig. 1)5. Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfacesonly, when performing an operation where thecutting tool may contact hidden wiring. Contactwith a “live” wire will also make exposed metal parts ofthe power tool “live” and could give the operator anelectric shock.6. When ripping, always use a rip fence or straightedge guide. This improves the accuracy of cut andreduces the chance of blade binding.7. Always use blades with correct size and shape(diamond versus round) of arbour holes. Bladesthat do not match the mounting hardware of the sawwill run eccentrically, causing loss of control.8. Never use damaged or incorrect blade washers orbolt.
