Ripping
CAUTION:
• When ripping, remove the miter gauge from the table.
• When cutting long or large workpieces, always provide
adequate support behind the table. The support should
be at the same height as the table.
Switch the tool on and gently feed the workpiece into the
blade along with the rip fence. Always use a push stick
when there is a danger that your hands or fingers will
come close to the blade. (Fig. 23)
A facing should be used for operations when the blade
comes close to the rip fence. Make a facing from wood
board or plastic board. Fasten it to the rip fence with bolts
and nuts or glue. (Fig. 24)
When the push stick strikes the blade guard because the
space between the blade and the rip fence is too narrow,
use an auxiliary fence and push block shown in Fig. 25.
Clamp the auxiliary fence to the rip fence in two loca-
tions. Gently feed the workpiece along the auxiliary
fence. When your hand comes close to the blade, rest
the push block on the auxiliary fence and feed through
until cut is completed. (Fig. 26)
Table saw stand
NOTE:
The following is description only for the tools equipped
with a table saw stand. For table saw stands as optional
accessories, refer to the instruction manuals for table
saw stands provided with them.
Place the stays on a level location and assemble the legs
inside. Secure with the bolts and nuts, then attach the
rubber caps to the ends of the legs. (Fig. 27)
Now set the table saw on top of the assembled stand and
secure with four hex bolts, washers and hex nuts.
(Fig. 28)
CAUTION:
This is a special stand built precisely for this Makita table
saw. Do not use it for other type tools.
NOTE:
Model 2702x1/2703x1 are standard-equipped with a
table saw stand.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before carrying out any work on the tool.
Inspection
• Periodically check tightness of screws carefully.
• Make sure that the blade guard operates smooth and
properly before operation.
Storage
Always unplug the tool after operation. Store it in dry, and
locked-up place — out of reach of children. When not
using it for a long period, take measures to prevent dust
and rust.
Cleaning
Clean out sawdust and chips from time to time. Carefully
clean the blade guard and moving parts inside the table
saw.
Lubrication
To keep the table saw in tip-top running condition, and to
assure maximum service life, oil or grease the moving
parts and rotating parts from time to time.
Lubrication places:
• Threaded shaft to elevate the blade
• Hinge to rotate the frame
• Elevation guide shafts on motor
• Gear to elevate the blade
• Gear to bevel the blade
• Shaft to rotate the blade guard
• Around slot in steel plate to secure bevel adjustment
• Cam shaft of rip fence
Replacement of carbon brushes (Fig. 29 & 30)
Replace carbon brushes when they are worn down to the

replaced at the same time.
To maintain product safety and reliability, repairs, mainte-
nance or adjustment should be carried out by a Makita
Authorized Service Center.
