Installing blades
CAUTION:
Use only Makita socket wrench provided to tighten the blade installation bolts. The use
of any other socket wrench may cause overtightening or insufficient tightening of the
bolts, resulting in severe injury.
Provide
a
flat wood block approx.
300 mm (11-13/16") long and 100 mm
(3-1 5/16") wide. Place the blade and the
set
plate on the wood block
so
that the
blade locating lug of the set plate rests
in the groove of the blade. Adjust the set
plate so that both ends of the blade pro-
trude approx. 1 mm (3/64") beyond the
end of the set plate. Place the two mag-
netic holders on the set plate and push
them until the claw contacts the blade.
Grip the magnetic holder and slip the
heel of the set plate into the groove in
the drum. Install the blade installation
bolts.
After tightening all the blade installation
bolts lightly and evenly from the center
to the outside, tighten them completely
following the same sequence. Remove
the magnetic holders from the set plate.
