It includes a vertical vise, dust bag, triangular rule, a 10' x 5/8' 60T micro-polished miter saw blade, and a hex wrench. It has the crown molding cutting capacity of a 12' miter saw, with a linear ball bearing system for accurate cuts. The innovative direct drive gearbox and guard system increase vertical cutting capacity. Its unique 2-steel rail sliding system reduces the saw's footprint and allows wall-flush operation. It's lightweight at 57.9 lbs. and has a compact design for easy portability. The powerful 15.0 AMP direct drive motor runs at 3,200 RPM with less maintenance. It can handle up to 6-5/8' crown molding, 4-3/4' baseboard, and 12' crosscuts at 90°. The large aluminum base ensures stability. Soft start provides smooth startups and longer gear life. It miters 0-60° left and right, bevels 0-48° left and right, with positive miter stops at key angles. Electronic speed control maintains constant speed under load. The exclusive 4-3/4' tall dual sliding fence system allows precise cuts. The in-front bevel lock is convenient, and the built-in laser clearly shows the cut line. The ergonomic D-handle offers comfort, and the replaceable miter scale is easy to read. With an 8.2' cord, it's suitable for fine woodworking, carpentry, and general construction.
Using your Makita LS1019L miter saw is straightforward. First, make sure it's properly plugged into a power source with the right amperage. Place your material on the large aluminum base for stability. Use the vertical vise to secure the material if needed. Adjust the miter and bevel angles according to your project requirements, using the positive miter stops for common angles. The dual sliding fence system can be adjusted for more precise cuts. The built-in laser helps you line up your cut accurately, whether the blade is running or not. When starting the saw, the soft start feature will give you a smooth start. The electronic speed control will keep the blade running at a constant speed, even under load. After use, turn off the saw and wait for the blade to stop completely before handling it. For maintenance, keep the saw clean by using the dust bag to collect debris. Check the blade regularly for wear and replace it when necessary. The direct drive motor requires less maintenance, but still, make sure to keep it clean. If you notice any issues with the electric brake or other components, stop using the saw and have it checked by a professional. This saw is designed for a variety of woodworking tasks, but always follow safety guidelines and wear appropriate protective gear.
