Genuine Makita 345530-7 — riving knife (splitter) for Makita table saws. Designed to mount directly behind the 260 mm blade on the Makita 2704 series, this precision-formed steel riving knife maintains the kerf behind the blade to help prevent workpiece pinching and reduce kickback during through-cuts.
A direct-fit replacement listed for the Makita 2704 table saw, it uses the original mounting points so the saw’s blade‑guard/riving‑knife geometry is restored without modification — ideal when you need a single genuine Makita spare parts replacement to get the tool back to safe operation.
Because a riving knife is a safety device located just behind the blade that keeps the cut kerf open and reduces the chance of binding and kickback, replacing a bent or missing 345530-7 is an important service task for safe table‑saw use.
This item is sold as the standalone replacement part for repair and maintenance of compatible Makita table saws; confirm your model number (2704) before installation to ensure correct fitment of power tool parts.
