Makita 4114X 14 Electric Angle Cutter, AC/DC, case w/ 14 Diamond Blade

What's Included: A socket wrench (782210 - 8) and a 14 - inch diamond blade are part of the Model 4114X package. Key Features: This cutter comes with Super Joint System (SJS) tech to stop gear damage from accidental wheel binding. A 15.0 AMP motor powers it, reaching 3,500 RPM for tough jobs. You can use an AC/DC switch for alternative power. The tool base can be removed to cut closer to walls, and the guide wheels on the guard make movement smooth. There's a built - in vacuum port to clear dust. A rubber shield keeps debris away from you and out of the motor. The tool base can adjust for up to 5 - inch cutting depth, ideal for split - face block when building retaining walls. Even when the base is removed, the guide wheels ensure smooth operation. You can adjust the tool body position (0° - 80°) for comfort, and it works independently of cutting depth. The base has front and rear guides for better accuracy. All - ball bearing construction extends the tool's life. Externally accessible brushes make servicing easy. A lock - on button allows continuous operation, and the rubberized handle reduces fatigue. Specifications: It has a 14 - inch diamond blade and cut - off wheel with a 5 - inch cutting capacity, a 1 - inch arbor, a no - load speed of 3,500 RPM, 15.0 AMPS at 120V, and an overall length of 26 - 1/2 inches.

Using the Makita 4114X is straightforward. First, check if the socket wrench and diamond blade are properly installed. Connect the power source according to whether you're using AC or DC. Before starting, adjust the tool body position to a comfortable angle (0° - 80°) and set the cutting depth as needed. When cutting, especially close to walls, you can remove the tool base for better access. The guide wheels on the tool guard will help the cutter move smoothly over the surface. During operation, press the lock - on button for continuous cutting. Be aware that the Super Joint System is there to protect the gears if the wheel binds accidentally. For safety, the rubber shield is in place to keep debris away, but still, wear appropriate protective gear. Maintenance is important. Regularly check the brushes as they are externally accessible for easy replacement. Also, clean the built - in vacuum attachment port to ensure efficient dust removal. The all - ball bearing construction means it's built to last, but proper care will extend its life even further.
