Procedure to bypass microswitches on makita LB1200F bandsaw?

Just join the two wires together if they work by providing current, or disconnect if they work by being open circuit. Microswitches are normally safety related so bypassing them is not recommended. Just replace the switch if it is faulty. £13.99 https://www.google.com/search?q=microswitches+on+makita+LB1200F+bandsaw ..

I'm rebuilding a MAKITA 7301 Concrete Saw is there anyone with experience that could you give me a list of things I might as well change out now or check. I'd like this saw to last a while.

They are a reliable saw. Presumably you are replacing the piston and rings and honing the bore. Strip and clean the carburetor. Replace the spark plug and lead. https://www.google.com/search?q=MAKITA+7301+SAW+full+service ..

I have a Makita LS1013 Dual Slide Compound 10-inch Miter Saw. It was working one minute and next no power!

How did you measure the power at the switch Live to N ? that would rule out a break in the cable all that is left is Armature ,Stator coil and wiring to both.

Hey I just bought the Makita LS1016 and my release button is jammed. The saw works great but the button is stuck in the "on" position which has eliminated a positive stop at 0 degrees when changing t

try a squirt of wd-40 or crc to free up the button. The anti rust spray used in assembly has probably got sticky and is jamming the shaft of the button

How to remove turn base from base on a Makita LS1011 Slide Compound Saw?

If you have removed the kerf boards and the center bolt the saw will lift straight off the turn base. It is possible the aluminum is deformed a little, but it will pull straight up and off if that bolt is out

My Makita DSS610 18v cordless circular saw stopped working mid cut. I changed the battery to another, fully charged, one but still nothing. Tried again next day, with both batteries, still nothing.

Hello Derek, it seems that your motor or motor brushes have failed please contact the manufacture about replacing the motor brushes.
