Do not stare into the laser beam. Never aim the beam at
any person or an object other than the work piece. The use of optical instru-
ments with this laser product will increase the chance of eye damage.

1. Place the workpiece on the table.
2. Press the laser light ON/OFF switch to the “I” position.
3. To turn the laser light off press the laser light ON/OFF switch to the “O” position.
4. To adjust the laser line turn the laser adjustment knob in a counter-clockwise
direction to loosen it and then move it to the left or right until the laser line is in
line with blade. Turn the laser adjustment knob in a clockwise direction to tighten.
The laser guide does not normally present an optical hazard, although staring at the
beam may cause flash blindness.
The laser shall be used and maintained in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions.
Always ensure the laser beam is aimed at a sturdy work piece without a reflective
surface, i.e. wood or rough coated surfaces are acceptable. Bright shiny reflective
sheet or the like is not suitable for laser use as the defective surface could direct the
beam back at the operator.

Before operating the band saw, the unit should be fully assembled and prepared for
use. All doors should be closed and locked and appropriate safety procedures fol-
lowed.
1. With power removed from the equipment, perform a pre-operation check:
Check for damaged parts. Check that guards are in place. Check for alignment
of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any
other conditions that may affect its operation.
2. Correct all unsafe conditions. Any part that is damaged should be properly
repaired or replaced.

cause injury. Ensure the laser beam is turned on only when the tool is on a non-
reflective workpiece and as such it is aimed only at the work surface. Metals and
other materials like steel which can be highly reflective should only be cut with-
out the use of the laser.
