Makita 253852-0 — Large flat washer (Washer 8). This is a genuine Makita stamped-steel flat washer used as a spacing/load‑distribution washer on the turn‑base / blade assemblies of several Makita slide‑compound mitre saws and related equipment. It sits under M8 fasteners to prevent metal‑on‑metal wear, keep the turn base and bearing box properly spaced, and maintain secure clamp pressure during cutting.

Example models this part is listed for include the LS1013 / LS1013L and the LS1214 series (LS1214, LS1214F, LS1214L), and it also appears in parts lists for other LS-series saws such as LS1019 / LS1019L, LS1219 / LS1219L and some DC/drive saw variants (LS003G, LS004G) — also show compatible with DLS110/DLS111/DLS211 and several lawn/groundcare and utility models (DLM380, LM381D, DCU wheelbarrow models) as examples. (Compatibility can vary by serial/version; check the tool’s parts diagram for exact fitment.)

Sold individually and typically listed as “Large Washer 8” or “Flat Washer 8,” this small part is an inexpensive repair item that often fixes looseness, misalignment, or rubbing in the turn base. If you’re ordering parts for power tools, keep this genuine Makita washer on hand when reassembling M8 fasteners on the indicated saw families.
