OPERATION
USING THE LASER GUIDE
See Figure 13.
WARNING:
Do not stare into the laser beam or turn the laser on
when the tool is not in use. Failure to do so could result
in possible serious personal injury.The laser unit comes
from the factory already installed and aligned. If the laser
becomes misaligned after time refer to the "adjustments"
section.
�n Mark the line to be cut on the workpiece.
�n Adjust the depth and angle of the cut as needed.
�n Switch on ( I ) the laser beam.
�n Plug the tool into a power supply and start the motor.
NOTE: Do not touch the blade to the workpiece until the
saw has reached maximum speed.
�n Slowly push the saw forward into the workpiece.
NOTE: Keep the laser beam on the marked line on the
workpiece for precision cutting.
�n Once the cut is complete, allow the saw to come to a
complete stop before turning off the laser.
�n Unplug the saw.
ADJUSTING BLADE DEPTH
See Figure 14.
Always keep correct blade depth setting. The correct blade
depth setting for all cuts should not exceed 1/4 in. (6.35 mm)
below the material being cut. More blade depth will increase
the chance of kickback and cause the cut to be rough. For
more depth of cut accuracy, a scale is located on the upper
blade guard.
Follow these directions to adjust the blade depth.
n
Unplug the saw.
WARNING:
Failure to unplug the tool could result in accidental start-
ing causing serious injury.
n Loosen depth adjustment knob.
n Determine the desired depth of cut.
