Danger, Warning, To Adjust The Laser Guide, To Adjust The Miter Lock Lever

Page 27 highlights

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 can result in hazardous radiation exposure. TO ADJUST THE LASER GUIDE See Figure 34.  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.  Release the switch trigger and allow the saw blade to stop rotating before raising the blade.  Raise the saw arm.  Unplug the saw.  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. TO ADJUST THE MITER LOCK LEVER See Figure 35. Prior to squaring the saw blade to the fence, check and adjust the miter lock lever, if needed. In the "locked" position, the action of fully locking the miter lock lever should feel tight and secure. Considerable effort should be required to move the miter table. If the table moves easily when in the "locked" position, an adjustment of the miter lock lever is required. To adjust:  Unplug the saw.  Lock the miter lock lever completely.  Pull the miter lock lever out to the right to disengage, then rotate forward to adjust.  Release miter lock lever to re-engage  Recheck the miter table to ensure proper tightness.

ADJUSTMENTS
DANGER:
Laser radiation. Avoid direct eye contact with light
source.
WARNING:
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of pro-
cedures other than those specified herein can result in
hazardous radiation exposure.
TO ADJUST THE LASER GUIDE
See Figure 34.
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.
Release the switch trigger and allow the saw blade to
stop rotating before raising the blade.
Raise the saw arm.
Unplug the saw.
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.
TO ADJUST THE MITER LOCK LEVER
See Figure 35.
Prior to squaring the saw blade to the fence, check and adjust
the miter lock lever, if needed.
In the “locked” position, the
action of fully locking the miter lock lever should feel tight
and secure. Considerable effort should be required to move
the miter table. If the table moves easily when in the “locked”
position, an adjustment of the miter lock lever is required.
To adjust:
Unplug the saw.
Lock the miter lock lever completely.
Pull the miter lock lever out to the right to disengage, then
rotate forward to adjust.
Release miter lock lever to re-engage
Recheck the miter table to ensure proper tightness.
