Genuine Makita tension (return) spring — part number 231877-4 — a small helical coil spring with hooked ends designed to restore tension in the saw’s guard/lever assembly.
This single replacement spring is listed on Makita parts diagrams for several 190 mm circular saw models, including DHS710 and the HS7100/HS7101 series, so it’s a direct fit when your blade-guard or lever return loses spring tension.
Supplied as one genuine Makita part, it installs in the original spring location (refer to your model’s parts breakdown for the exact position) and is ideal when you need a precise, like-for-like replacement to get your saw working reliably again — a small, affordable part that solves common guard/lever return issues on compatible Makita circular saws.
Note: this is a Makita replacement part intended for repairs and maintenance of parts for power tools.
