ADJUSTMENTS DANGER: Laser radiation. Avoid direct eye contact with light source. WARNING: Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure. TO ADJUST THE LASER GUIDE See Figure 35. Use the work clamp or a C-clamp to secure a piece of scrap wood. Install the battery pack and make a slight cut to score the wood. Release the switch trigger and allow the saw blade to stop rotating before raising the blade. Raise the saw arm. Remove the battery pack. Turn the laser switch on. NOTE: The broken line may begin slightly skewed off of the mark in the uppermost position. As the saw blade assembly is lowered, at the approximate point the lower blade guard starts to move, the laser line will be aligned with the mark and remain aligned throughout the cut. This is normal. NEVER attempt to move the workpiece while making a cut. Always keep hands outside the "No Hands Zone". Using the Phillips end of the supplied blade wrench, turn the laser adjustment screw counterclockwise to move the laser line left or clockwise to move the laser line right. NOTE: When properly aligned, the laser should be on the left edge of the kerf. ADJUSTING THE MITER LOCK LEVER See Figure 36. The lock lever consists of a repositionable lever and locking hex screw. The lever can be repositioned without moving the hex screw for the best tightening orientation. To reposition the lever: With the lever seated against the hex screw, rotate the lever clockwise to lock the hex screw as tightly as possible with the lever in the current position. Pull the lever away from the saw to disengage it from the hex screw. LASER ADJUSTMENT SCREW Fig. 35 PULL MITER LOCK LEVER OUT TO ROTATE ROTATE TO THE DESIRED POSITION RELEASE THE LEVER TO LOCK Fig. 36 Keep a steady outward pull on the lever, then rotate the lever as needed to the desired position on the hex screw. Release the lever so that it snaps into place on the hex screw. NOTE: The lever may rotate slightly after release as it properly seats on the hex screw. 28 - English
