PARALLEL CUTTING GUIDE
• The cutting guide (11) can be used on
the left or the right of the blade.
• Using the guide provides accurate cuts without
the need to work free-hand following pencil
lines.
1. With the thumb screw on
the baseplate loosened
slide the guide (11) into
the mounting slots on the
baseplate, from either
the left or right hand
side.
2. Slide it along until the
required cut
width is reached.
3. Tighten the thumb screw to lock it
into position.
SIGHTING THE CUT LINE
The sighting indicators (4) in front of the saw
blade provide guidance when cutting along a
pencil line.
For 90˚ cuts use the right hand indicator (when
viewed from the operators perspective) and the
left hand indicator
for 45˚ cuts.

Functions
LASER SIGHTING
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
or longer than 0.25s.
• Always ensure the laser beam is aimed at a
sturdy work piece without reflective surfaces.
ie. 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 the tool
is on the workpiece.
1. Rest the front edge of the saw baseplate on the
workpiece. Ensure the blade is not touching
your work.
2. Switch on the laser using the laser sight on/off
button (1).
The laser will not operate if the tool
is not plugged in and switched on at the
mains.
3. Line up the beam with your pencil line.
4. Commence the cut.
5. Switch off the laser.
