Makita LS1018 10 Slide Compound Miter Saw

Using the Makita LS1018 is straightforward. First, assemble all the included parts like the vice, dust bag, and extension wings. Make sure to use the provided wrench to secure everything properly. When making a cut, set the miter and bevel angles according to your needs. You can easily adjust these angles with the positive stops for accurate cuts. The soft start feature will give you a smooth start every time. When it comes to safety, always wear appropriate protective gear like safety glasses and ear protection. Keep your hands away from the blade at all times. Also, use the electric brake to stop the blade quickly after each cut. For maintenance, clean the dust bag regularly to ensure good dust collection. Check the blade for any signs of wear and replace it when necessary. Lubricate the moving parts as recommended in the manual. This will keep your saw in top condition and ensure it lasts for a long time.
