Using the REDEYE laser line generator
WARNINGS. Do not stare directly at the laser beam. Never
aim the beam at any person or an object other than the
work piece.
Do not deliberately aim the beam at personnel and ensure
that it is not directed towards the eye of a person.
Always ensure the laser beam is aimed at a sturdy work
piece without reflective surfaces. i.e. wood or rough
coated surfaces are acceptable. Bright shiny reflective
sheet steel or the like is not suitable for laser use as the
reflective surface could direct the beam back at the
operator.
Only turn the laser beam on when the work piece is on
the tool.
1. Mark the line of cut on the work piece.
2. Adjust the bevel angle, rip fence and upper blade guide
as required.
3. Switch on the laser beam
using the laser light on/off
switch (7).
4. Align the laser beam with
the line on the work piece.
5. The laser beam can be
aligned to be parallel with
the line on the work piece
by adjusting the laser line.
6. To start the saw, press the
green 'ON' button.
7. To begin the cut guide the
wood into the moving saw
blade.
8. Use only enough pressure
to keep the saw cutting.
Do not force the cutting,
allow the blade and the
saw to do the work.
9. When cutting at an angle ensure that the rip fence is
located on the right hand side of the blade.
10. When cutting rod, use a jig or fixture to prevent the
workpiece from turning.
11. When cutting boards vertically, use a suitable push
block to feed the workpiece into the saw.
12. Once finished turn off the laser light, turn off the tool
by pressing the red 'OFF' button and unplug the tool
from the power point to prevent unauthorised use.
Changing the batteries
1. Open the battery cover that
is part of the laser light
on/off switch.
2. Insert 2 x AA batteries
taking care to insert the
new batteries with the
correct polarity.
WARNINGS. Use only
correct batteries, 2 x “AA”.
DO NOT mix old and new
batteries
DO NOT mix alkaline,
standard (carbon-zinc)
or rechargeable
(nickel-cadmium) batteries.
CAUTION. Remove the laser
light batteries when the tool
is to be stored without use for
a few days or more. If left in
position, the batteries might leak and damage the laser
light assembly. Damage due to leaking batteries is not
covered under warranty.
