Carrying Tool; Adjusting The Cutting Angle - Makita LS1216 Manual De Instrucciones

Example:
When cutting workpieces 115 mm (4-1/2")
and 120 mm (4 - 3/4") high, use a wood
facing with the following thickness.
Miter angle

CAUTION:
Use screws to attach the wood facing to the guide
•
fence. The screws should be installed so that the
screw heads are below the surface of the wood

A dado type cut can be made by proceeding as
follows:
Adjust the lower limit position of the blade using
the adjusting screw and the stopper arm to limit the
cutting depth of the blade. Refer to "Stopper arm"
section described previously.
After adjusting the lower limit position of the blade,
cut parallel grooves across the width of the
workpiece using a slide (push) cut as shown in the
figure. Then remove the workpiece material
between the grooves with a chisel. Do not attempt
to perform this type of cut using wide (thick) blades
or with a dado blade. Possible loss of control and
injury may result.
CAUTION:
Be sure to return the stopper arm to the original
•
position when performing other than groove
cutting.

Make sure that the tool is unplugged. Secure the blade
at 0° bevel angle and the turn base at right miter angle
fully. Secure the slide poles so that the lower slide pole

operator and the upper poles are locked in the position
of the carriage fully pushed forward to the guide fence
(refer to the section titled "Slide lock adjustment ".)
Lower the handle fully and lock it in the lowered position
by pushing in the stopper pin.
Carry the tool by holding both sides of the tool base as
shown in the figure. If you remove the holders, dust bag,
etc., you can carry the tool more easily.
