Rip fence (guide rule)
The handy rip fence allows you to do extra-accurate
straight cuts. Simply slide the rip fence up snugly
against the side of the workpiece and secure it in
position with the screws on the front and the back of
the base. It also makes repeated cuts of uniform width
possible.
Overturning the rip fence (guide rule) also works as a
sub base for the tool.
Stopper for 2 to 3 mm depth of
cut when using circular saw blade
(optional accessory) and guide rail
(optional accessory)

Red mark
This tool has the stopper for 2 to 3 mm depth of cut
on the gear housing aside the rear handle when using
guide rail.
Splinter on the workpiece can be avoided by making a
pass of the 2 to 3 mm first cut and then make another
pass of usual cut.
First, push in the stopper toward the circular saw blade
for obtaining 2 to 3 mm depth of cut.
Then pull the button back for performing free depth of
cut.
Make sure that the stopper is released and the red mark
can be seen for groove cutting operation.
Connecting a vacuum cleaner
For groove cutting operation, connect a Makita vacuum
cleaner to your tool.
Connect a hose of the vacuum cleaner to the dust port.
