The saw miters 0 to 52 degrees left and 0 to 60 degrees right, with positive stops at 0, 15, 22.5, 31.6, and 45 degrees (left and right). The dual rear-handle bevel lock is easily accessible with adjustments from 0 to 45 degrees (left and right), with positive stops at 22.5, 33.9, and 45 degrees (left and right).Precise adjustments are made easy with dual front bevel scales for improved visibility. The easy one-touch (push in & turn) miter lock system is designed for accurate adjustments and increased efficiency. Makita LS1016L now has large Cutting Capacity and Increased Accuracy The LS1016L has an innovative direct-drive gearbox and patented retractable guard system engineered for increased vertical cutting capacity. At 6-5/8 inches, the LS1016L has the largest crown molding cutting capacity (vertically nested) in its class. The patented retractable rear guard also provides the LS1016L with 4-3/4-inch baseboard cutting capacity (vertical) and a 12-inch capacity at 90 degrees. In addition, the exclusive six linear ball bearings deliver smooth, solid, and adjustment-free accurate cuts. The saw also has a patented 4-Steel Rail Sliding System that further increases rigidity to produce superior cuts, as the four steel rails provide less deflection. The result is a larger cutting capacity and more accuracy..
Features with the Makita Slide Compound Mitre LS1016L

DXT - Deep and Exact Cutting Technology

Deep cutting - 3 stage reduction gear unit and movable rear blade guard provide larger capacities of cutting crown molding or skirting board

Capable of diagonal cutting up to 168mm in crown molding

Capable of vertical cutting up to 120mm in baseboard (skirting)

Exact cutting is obtained by using 4 short poles instead of the usual 2 longer poles. This also reduces vibration and makes for more precise cutting.

6 linear ball bearings are used to support the 4 poles for smooth and precise sliding out

Double sliding guide fence - the upper and the lower sections slide independently for added convenience; each upper fence slides outwards for bevel cut and each lower

fence slides inwards to securely hold small workpieces for precise and exact cutting

Quick and accurate mitre angle lock - mitre angle can be locked or unlocked by simply turning the handle 90°

Positive stops at 0°, 15°, 22.5°, 31.6° and 45°
