Bench Mounting; Functional Description - Makita LS1016F Betriebsanleitung

27. Do not use the tool in the presence of flammable
liquids or gases. The electrical operation of the tool
could create an explosion and fire when exposed to
flammable liquids or gases.
28. Use only flanges specified for this tool.
29. Be careful not to damage the arbor, flanges
(especially the installing surface) or bolt. Dam-
age to these parts could result in blade break-
age.
30. Make sure that the turn base is properly secured
so it will not move during operation.
31. For your safety, remove the chips, small pieces,
etc. from the table top before operation.
32. Avoid cutting nails. Inspect for and remove all
nails from the workpiece before operation.
33. Make sure the shaft lock is released before the
switch is turned on.
34. Be sure that the blade does not contact the turn
base in the lowest position.
35. Hold the handle firmly. Be aware that the saw
moves up or down slightly during start-up and
stopping.
36. Make sure the blade is not contacting the work-
piece before the switch is turned on.
37. Before using the tool on an actual workpiece, let
it run for a while. Watch for vibration or wobbling
that could indicate poor installation or a poorly
balanced blade.
38. Wait until the blade attains full speed before cut-
ting.
39. Stop operation immediately if you notice any-
thing abnormal.
40. Do not attempt to lock the trigger in the on posi-
tion.
41. Be alert at all times, especially during repetitive,
monotonous operations. Do not be lulled into a
false sense of security. Blades are extremely
unforgiving.
42. Always use accessories recommended in this
manual. Use of improper accessories such as
abrasive wheels may cause an injury.
43. Take care when slotting.
44. Some dust created from operation contains
chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects
or other reproductive harm. Some examples of
these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based-painted material and,
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated
lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depend-
ing on how often you do this type of work. To
reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work
in a well ventilated area and work with approved
safety equipment, such as those dust masks
that are specially designed to filter out micro-
scopic particles.
45. To reduce the emitted noise, always be sure that
the blade is sharp and clean.
46. The operator is adequately trained in the use,
adjustment and operation of the machine.

WARNING:
DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with product
(gained from repeated use) replace strict adherence
to safety rules for the subject product. MISUSE or
failure to follow the safety rules stated in this instruc-
tion manual may cause serious personal injury.
INSTALLATION

Bench mounting

When the tool is shipped, the handle is locked in the low-
ered position by the stopper pin. Release the stopper pin
by simultaneously applying a slight downward pressure
on the handle and pulling the stopper pin. (Fig. 1)
WARNING:
• Ensure that the tool will not move on the support-
ing surface. Movement of the miter saw on the sup-
porting surface while cutting may result in loss of
control and serious personal injury.
This tool should be bolted with four bolts to a level and
stable surface using the bolt holes provided in the tool's
base. This will help prevent tipping and possible injury.
(Fig. 2)

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

WARNING:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before adjusting or checking function on
the tool. Failure to switch off and unplug the tool may
result in serious personal injury from accidental start-up.
Blade guard (Fig. 3 & 4)
When lowering the handle, the blade guard rises auto-
matically. The blade guard returns to its original position
when the cut is completed and the handle is raised.
WARNING:
• Never defeat or remove the blade guard or the
spring which attaches to the guard. An exposed
blade as a result of defeated guarding may result in
serious personal injury during operation.
In the interest of your personal safety, always maintain
the blade guard in good condition. Any irregular opera-
tion of the blade guard should be corrected immediately.
Check to assure spring loaded return action of guard.
WARNING:
• Never use the tool if the blade guard or spring are
damaged, faulty or removed. Operation of the tool
with a damaged, faulty or removed guard may result in
serious personal injury.
If the see-through blade guard becomes dirty, or sawdust
adheres to it in such a way that the blade and/or work-
piece is no longer easily visible, unplug the saw and
clean the guard carefully with a damp cloth. Do not use
solvents or any petroleum-based cleaners on the plastic
guard because this may cause damage to the guard.
If the blade guard becomes dirty and needs to be
cleaned for proper operation follow the steps below:
With the tool switched off and unplugged, use the sup-
plied socket wrench to loosen the hex bolt holding the
center cover. Loosen the hex bolt by turning it counter-
clockwise and raise the blade guard and center cover.
