I have a 10” Makita LS1013 sliding compound saw that the blade keeps coming loose. Have a Forrest 10” Chopmaster blade on it. Yea, I have the blade facing the correct way. I wonder if the motor, soft start or soft stop, is causing it or what. Ideas welcome. I roughed up the blade, washers, locking bolt but still does it. Charles.
(not sure now of model number, will check when back in shop. Maybe LS 1013.). Yep, Mikita LS 1013
could it be the brake?
the shop has hot water radiant heat in the floor so the temperature stays with in a range depending on how quick the temp changes out side.
