Using the Makita XBP03T is quite straightforward. First, charge the 18V LXT Lithium - Ion 5.0Ah battery using the Rapid Optimum Charger. It'll take 45 minutes or less to fully charge. Once charged, insert the battery into the band saw. You can easily change the blade using the 'tool - less' blade change lever. When you're ready to cut, place the material on the adjustable foot and use the adjustable material stopper plate for support. Turn on the saw and start cutting. The built - in LED light will help you see the work area clearly. Remember, this saw is designed for metal cutting, so don't use it on other materials. Keep it away from water and damp places. After use, clean the saw and the blade. Check the blade regularly for wear and tear and replace it if needed. Also, make sure to store the saw in a dry and safe place when not in use. And if you're not using the saw for a long time, remove the battery to prevent over - discharging.
