Using the Makita LS1019L is straightforward. First, make sure it's properly plugged in. Then, adjust the miter and bevel angles according to your cutting needs. You can use the positive miter stops at 0°, 15°, 22.5°, 31.6°, 45°, and 60° left or right for quick and accurate settings. The built - in laser can help you clearly see the line of cut, and you can adjust it with the on - off switch and micro - adjustments. When cutting, hold the ergonomic rubberized horizontal D - handle for a comfortable grip. After use, unplug the saw. For maintenance, keep the saw clean by using the dust bag to collect debris. Check the blade regularly for any signs of wear and replace it if necessary. Also, make sure to lubricate the moving parts as recommended in the user manual. Be careful when handling the saw, especially when adjusting the bevel and miter angles. Avoid overloading the motor and always follow the safety instructions provided.
