Using the parallel fence
The parallel fence (12) allows you to make parallel cuts
in a sheet of wood, all at the same width.
CAUTION. Always ensure that the saw is switched off
and unplugged from the power supply before making
any adjustments.
1. Loosen the parallel fence locking knob (11)
2. Slide the parallel fence (12) through the slots in the base
plate (15).
3. Adjust the parallel fence to the required width and secure
it in position with the parallel fence locking knob (11).
4. Ensure that the parallel fence rests against the wood
along its entire length to give a consistent parallel cut.
Using the REDEYE ® system
WARNING. Do not stare directly at the laser beam.
Never aim the beam at any person or an object other than
the workpiece.
Do not deliberately aim the beam at personnel and ensure
that it is not directed towards the eye of a person for longer
than 0.25s.
Always ensure the laser beam is aimed at a sturdy
workpiece 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 laser beam on when
tool is on workpiece.
1. Mark the line of the cut on the
workpiece.
2. Adjust the depth of cut and
bevel angle as required.
3. Rest the front edge of the
base on the workpiece.
4. Switch on the laser beam using the laser light on/off
button (2).
5. Align the beam with the line on
the workpiece.
6. Start the motor by depressing
the lock-off button (5) and
squeezing the trigger switch (4).
7. Always let the blade reach
full speed (approximately 2
seconds) before you begin to
cut into the workpiece.
8. Slowly push the saw forward using both hands, keeping
the red laser light beam on the line of cut.
9. After completing your cut, release the trigger switch
and allow the blade to come to a complete stop. Do not
remove the saw from the workpiece while the blade is
moving.
10. Switch off the laser beam on completion of the cut.
