Makita Genuine JM23500037 Guard Linkage Centre Plate for Makita LS0815FL Mitre Saw

The Makita JM23500037 Guard Linkage Centre Plate is a genuine OEM replacement part designed specifically for the Makita LS0815FL sliding compound mitre saw.

Forming part of the blade guard linkage system, this precision-engineered metal plate is responsible for keeping the guard moving smoothly and consistently throughout each cut. When the centre plate becomes worn, bent, or corroded, it can cause stiff guard action or misalignment — both of which affect the reliability of the safety mechanism and the accuracy of the saw.

Replacing the damaged component with this correctly specified part restores the guard to its original operating geometry, allowing it to retract and return cleanly without drag or sticking. The durable metal construction with protective finish ensures long-term performance in demanding site and workshop environments.

Fitting is straightforward using basic hand tools, with the replacement plate designed to work with the existing fixings. For contractors and carpenters relying on the LS0815FL day-to-day, this is a cost-effective way to return a neglected or damaged saw to full, safe working order without the need for a full guard assembly replacement.
