Using your Makita 40V Max XGT 6 - 1/2" Cordless Circular Saw Kit is easy. First, make sure the battery is fully charged and properly inserted into the saw. Select the right blade for the material you're cutting. You can use the variable speed control dial to adjust the speed according to your needs, between 2,500 - 4,900 RPM. When starting the saw, the soft start feature will give you a smooth start - up. For bevel cuts, you can adjust the bevel angle from - 1° to 48° with positive stops at 22.5° and 45°. If you want to use the Auto - start Wireless System (AWS®), you'll need to buy the transmitter separately and pair it with your dust extractor. When you pull the trigger, the dust extractor will turn on, and it'll turn off when you release the trigger. Remember, always wear safety goggles and appropriate clothing when using the saw. Keep the saw clean after each use. You can use a dry cloth to wipe off any dust or debris. If the blade gets dull, replace it with a new one. Store the saw in a dry place and keep the battery in a cool environment. Make sure to follow the instructions in the user manual for more detailed safety and maintenance guidelines.
