Genuine Makita Fix Plate GM00001282 — a small but vital replacement plate that secures the flashlight head’s pivot/rotator assembly. The fix plate is the part the turning shaft locates into, holding the rotating bracket and keeping the head indexed and wobble-free so the light will fold and swivel smoothly during use.
Sold as a single replacement piece for one-off repairs, this original Makita fix plate is ideal when the rotating mechanism has worn or the head will no longer hold position; it’s a low-cost way to restore function without replacing the whole light. This item appears in Makita parts listings for several cordless LED flashlight models, for example DML801 and BML801 — and is also shown as compatible with related flashlight models such as DML816 / LXLM03 on parts diagrams and listings.
If you’re doing a quick field repair, the GM00001282 fix plate is the exact part to replace the worn pivot seat and get the lamp rotating and locking properly again — a common small repair in parts for power tools maintenance.
