Description
Overview:
This genuine Makita centre plate is a replacement table insert for selected LS-series sliding compound mitre saws, including the LS1013L and LS1214. It sits around the blade opening to provide a stable, flat reference surface for your workpiece and to maintain accurate cutting geometry over time. Manufactured from durable metal for long service life, it is designed to match the original fit and finish so your saw operates as intended after replacement. Correct seating of the insert helps reduce tear-out, supports narrow offcuts, and protects the saw's base from wear. Supplied to Makita's OEM specification under MPN 344473-0, it is suitable for routine maintenance or when the original insert becomes worn, bent or lost on site.
