    Makita LS103 Blade Brake Broke

    The blade brake on my 6-year-old Makita miter saw stopped working.

    I fixed it by cleaning the commutator with emery cloth.

    To get at the commutator you remove the brushes, then remove the 4 screws holding the motor assembly onto the saw. Then pull off the motor assembly. Do NOT forget to remove the brushes first!

    Thanks for the info Robert. I will have to try to remember the info if mine ever quits.
