Adjustment of the laser line position (Fig. 70 & 71)
For models LS1016L and LS1016FL only
WARNING:
• Since the tool must be plugged in while adjusting
the laser line, special care must be taken to not
switch on the tool. Accidental start up of the tool may
result in serious personal injury.
CAUTION:
• Never look directly into the laser beam. Direct eye
exposure to the beam could cause serious damage to
the eyes.
• LASER RADIATION
Do not stare into beam.
NOTICE:
• Beware that impacts to the tool may cause the laser
line to be misaligned or may cause damage to the
laser, shortening its life.

Adjusting the laser line for the right side of the blade.

2 Saw blade
3 Laser line
009515
For both adjustments, do as follows.
1. Make sure that the tool is unplugged.
2. Draw the cutting line on the workpiece and place it
on the turn table. At this time, do not secure the
workpiece with a vise or similar securing device.
3. Lower the blade by lowering the handle and just
check to see where the cutting line and the position
of the saw blade is. (Decide which position to cut on
the line of cut.)
4. After deciding the correct position of the line in rela-
tion to the blade, return the handle to the original
position. Secure the workpiece with the vertical vise
without shifting the workpiece from the pre-checked
position.
5. Plug the tool and turn on the laser switch.
6. Adjust the position of laser line as follows.
The position of laser line can be changed as the movable
range of the adjusting screw for the laser is changed by
turning two screws with a hex wrench. (The movable
range of laser line is factory adjusted within 1 mm from
the side surface of blade.)
To shift the laser line movable range further away from
the side surface of blade, turn the two screws counter-
clockwise after loosening the adjusting screw. Turn these
two screws clockwise to shift it closer to the side surface
of the blade after loosening the adjusting screw.
Refer to the section titled “Laser beam action” and adjust
the adjusting screw so that the cutting line on your work-
piece is aligned with the laser line.
NOTE:
• Check the position of laser line regularly for accuracy.
• Have the tool repaired by a Makita authorized service
center for any failure on the laser unit.
Cleaning the laser light lens (Fig. 72 & 73)
For models LS1016L and LS1016FL only
If the lens for the laser light becomes dirty, or sawdust
adheres to it in such a way that the laser line is no longer
easily visible, unplug the saw and remove and clean the
lens for the laser light carefully with a damp, soft cloth.
Do not use solvents or any petroleum-based cleaners on
the lens.
To remove the lens for the laser light, remove the saw
blade before removing the lens according to the instruc-
tions in the section titled “Installing or removing saw
blade”.
Loosen but do not remove the screw which secures the
lens using a screwdriver.
Pull out the lens as shown in the figure.
NOTE:
• If the lens does not come out, loosen the screw further
and pull out the lens again without removing the screw.
Replacing carbon brushes (Fig. 74 & 75)
Remove and check the carbon brushes regularly.
Replace when they wear down to the limit mark. Keep
the carbon brushes clean and free to slip in the holders.
Both carbon brushes should be replaced at the same
time. Use only identical carbon brushes.
Use a screwdriver to remove the brush holder caps. Take
out the worn carbon brushes, insert the new ones and
secure the brush holder caps.
After replacing brushes, plug in the tool and break in
brushes by running tool with no load for about 10 min-
utes. Then check the tool while running and electric
brake operation when releasing the switch trigger. If the
electric brake is not working correctly, have the tool
repaired by a Makita service center.
