Makita Genuine 324289-9 Rod for Makita BLS713, LS0714 Corded 190mm Slide Compound Mitre Saws

The Makita 324289-9 is a genuine OEM replacement rod designed to restore the slide mechanism on compatible Makita 190 mm slide compound mitre saws, including the BLS713 and LS0714 models. Forming part of the guide assembly, this rod enables the saw head to travel smoothly along its full range of motion whilst maintaining precise alignment. When the original rod develops wear, bending, or play, cutting accuracy suffers — making timely replacement essential for carpenters and joiners who rely on consistent mitre, bevel, and cross-cut results. Precision machined from durable metal, the 324289-9 is built to withstand the demands of regular site use and workshop environments. Its accurate dimensions ensure it fits without modification, reducing downtime and allowing straightforward installation using standard hand tools. As a genuine Makita part, compatibility is assured without the fitment uncertainty associated with aftermarket alternatives. Whether used for reactive repair or planned preventative maintenance, this rod helps extend the working life of your saw and keeps it performing to specification across framing, trim, and general carpentry applications.
