TO ADJUST THE LASER GUIDE
See Figure 37.
NOTE: Avoid direct eye exposure when using the laser
guide.
Set both the bevel angle and the miter table at 0°.
Use the work clamp or a C-clamp to secure a piece of
scrap wood.
Plug the saw into the power source and make a slight
cut to score the wood.
Raise the saw arm and unplug the saw.
Lift and hold the lower blade guard.
Rotate the blade by hand until you can push and hold
the laser button and the laser is near the center of the
workpiece as shown in figure 37.
To adjust the laser, turn the adjustment screw coun-
ter-clockwise or clockwise using the hex key (1/16 in.)
provided.
NOTE: When properly aligned, the laser should be on the
left edge of the kerf.
Once aligned, remove and store the hex key (1/16 in.),

cutting through your workpiece.
