USING THE LASER LINE GUIDE
Your tool is equipped with a laser line guide
that will turn on whenever the tool is plugged
in and the laser button is pushed in (Fig. 1).
The laser line is pre-set at the factory to the
kerf of the blade supplied with your saw.
If using the laser line guide for cutting you do
not need the line guide incorporated in the
foot as it may be in a different setting than the
laser line guide.
The laser light guide is a class IIIA laser with a
maximum output power of 5.0 mWatts and
conforms to 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11.
LASER RADIATION.
AVOID DIRECT EYE
EXPOSURE. DO NOT stare into the laser
light source. Never aim light at another
person or object other than the workpiece.
Laser light can damage your eyes.
DO NOT use tinted
glasses to enhance the
laser light. Tinted glasses will reduce overall
vision for the application and interfere with the
normal operation of the tool.
Never aim the beam at a
workpiece with a
reflective surface. Bright shiny reflective
sheet steel or similar reflective surfaces are
not recommended for laser use. Reflective
surfaces could direct the beam back toward
the operator.
Use of controls or
adjustments or
performance of procedures other than those
specified herein may result in hazardous
radiation exposure.
The use of optical
instruments with this
product will increase eye hazards.
USING THE GUIDE NOTCHES
WITHOUT LASER LINE
For a straight 90° cut, use right side of notch
in the foot. For 45° bevel cuts, use the left side
(Fig. 7a). The cutting guide notch will give an
approximate line of cut. Make sample cuts in
scrap lumber to verify actual line of cut. This
will be helpful because of the number of
different blade types and thicknesses
available. To ensure minimum splintering on
the good side of the material to be cut, face
the good side down.
