Makita LS1013 Instruction Manual page 12

Press the workpiece flat against the guide fence and the
turn base. Position the workpiece at the desired cutting
position and secure it firmly by tightening the vise knob.
CAUTION:
• The workpiece must be secured firmly against the
turn base and guide fence with the vise during all
operations.
Horizontal vise (optional accessory)
1
2 3
The horizontal vise can be installed in two positions on
either the left or right side of the base. When performing
15° or greater miter cuts, install the horizontal vise on the
side opposite the direction in which the turn base is to be
turned.
By flipping the vise nut to the left, the vise is released,
and rapidly moves in and out. To grip the workpiece,
push the vise knob forward until the vise plate contacts
the workpiece and flip the vise nut to the right. Then turn
the vise knob clockwise to secure the workpiece.
The maximum width of workpiece which can be secured
by the horizontal vise is 200 mm (7-7/8").
When installing the horizontal vise on the right side of the
base, also use the sub-fence R to secure the workpiece
more firmly. Refer to the "Sub-fence R" section described
on previously for installing the sub-fence R.
CAUTION:
• Always rotate the vise nut to the right fully when
securing the workpiece. Failure to do so may result
in insufficient securing of the workpiece. This could
cause the workpiece to be thrown, cause damage
to the blade or cause the loss of control, which can
result in PERSONAL INJURY.

Holders
1
The holders can be installed on either side as a conve-
nient means of holding workpieces horizontally. Slip the
holder rods into the holes in the base and adjust their
length according to the workpiece to be held. Then
tighten the holders securely with the screws.
CAUTION:
• Always support long workpieces level with the top
surface of the turn base for accurate cuts and to
prevent dangerous loss of control of the tool.
Kerf block (optional accessory)
1
CAUTION:
• When using the kerf block, always cut at the same
miter angle.
• When changing the miter angle, use other kerf
blocks.
• When performing bevel cuts, never use the kerf
block.
Failure to do so splits the block, causing a serious injury
to operator.
When you use the kerf block at 90° cutting, you can splin-
ter-free cut in workpiece on the side of the guide fence
(height of the workpiece is up to 35 mm). Install the kerf
block onto the guide fence by means of the two screws.
(Adjust the guide fence and the kerf block so that they
contact their faces. Then tighten the screws securely.)
