Original Makita square‑neck bolt JM23500031 — a precision M5 x 12 mm square‑neck fastener engineered to the same specifications used in Makita saw assemblies.

This bolt secures the lower guard/linkage area on the LS0815 / LS0815F and LS0815FL making it a direct, drop‑in replacement when that mounting fastener is missing or damaged.

A small but critical part, it restores correct guard alignment and movement so the blade guard operates safely and smoothly. Included here as part of genuine Makita spare parts, it’s the exact-fit screw spec your saw’s parts diagram calls out.

Keep this in your toolkit of essential power tool parts when servicing mitre or cut‑off saw guard linkages — same size: M5 × 12 mm (metric).
