Makita 233284-7 — genuine Makita compression spring (listed as "Compression Spring 5"). This small, original Makita coil spring restores the correct return/tension action in the saw’s control assemblies (switch/lock-off and related lever pieces) and is the exact replacement referenced on Makita parts diagrams.
Why this part matters: the 233284-7 provides the calibrated compression force that keeps blade-guard and switch linkages operating smoothly and safely; replacing a worn or broken spring clears up sticky or non-returning levers and restores normal mechanical function. The part is identified in Makita exploded parts lists as "Compression Spring 5."
Example fitment (models where this part is shown in Makita parts lists): N5900B (235 mm circular saw), HS0600 (260/270 mm circular saw), 5402NA (415 mm circular saw) — also listed against several other Makita/Dolmar circular-saw service diagrams. Check the parts diagram for your model to confirm the spring location before installing.
What you get: one original Makita compression spring (part no. 233284-7), ready to drop into the spring seat shown on your model’s exploded view so the existing lever or guard returns correctly.
