This original Makita replacement part is sourced from manufacturer for use with compound miter saws. It is designed to secure the link plate which helps to guide the protector guard. It is a hex socket head bolt which is sold individually. Please note you would need a hex key/allen wrench to install or remove this bolt.
Removed the guard and link plate then replaced it and the associated spacers and washers and bolt. Worked great! The parts diagram and suggested parts for repair made it easy.

5. Be sure the ring engages the curved slot by (GENTLY) moving the guard until it

6. Do not tighten the bolt to much; only tighten so that the flat washer is in loose

7. Tightening to much will bind the blade guard causing the Guard to not operate
smoothly.
8. That\'s it; now the guard will move smoothly all the way down to complete the cut,
without any dangerous hand manipulation while operating the saw.
