Turning on the REDEYE® laser line generator

1. The REDEYE® laser line generator emits two intense

narrow beams of pure red light that intersect at the

drilling point.

2. The intersection is clearly visible and will not be

obscured by dust. It improves operator drilling vision,

enables faster set-up, increases accuracy and improves

safety.

3. To turn the laser line on move

the switch to the ‘I’ position.

4. To turn off the laser line move

the switch to the ‘O’ position.

material to the table.

2. Insert a drill bit into the

chuck jaws.

3. Turn on the drill press.
4. Using the feed wheel lower

the spindle and make a small

mark in the workpiece.

5. Turn on the laser line generator.
6. If the laser is not aligned

with the mark in the work

piece, adjust as follows.

7. Using the 3mm hex key

loosen the set screw that

secures the laser light

assembly.

8. Rotate the laser beam until

it intersects the mark in the

workpiece.

9. Repeat the process for the

other side.
