Makita 231418-6 Spare Part - COMPRESSION SPRING 9
Original Makita compression spring — part number 231418-6. This is the genuine Makita compression (tension) spring used in the slide/mitre saw assemblies; it replaces the small coil spring that provides the correct preload and return tension for the saw’s moving linkages. Sold as a single replacement part and made to match Makita’s original fit and tension.
Example models this part is used in (typical fits): LC1230, LS0714 / LS0714FL / LS0714L, BLS713, DLS713 and DLS714 (and the closely related slide/compound mitre saw variants). If your saw’s parts diagram shows part 231418-6 or “Comp. Spring 9,” this is the matching Makita spring.
Quick notes for the repair: the spring is a direct drop‑in replacement — it restores the factory preload and smooth action where that coil spring is used in the slide/mitre mechanism. Order by Makita part number 231418-6 to ensure exact compatibility with the models listed.
