(2) Checking laser line alignment
Laser line
(a) Set the saw to a 0° miter and 0° bevel setting.
(b) Use a combination square to mark a 90° angled
running across the top and down the front of a board.
This line will serve as the pattern line to adjust the
laser. Place the board on the saw table.
(c) Carefully lower the saw head down to align the saw
blade with the pattern line. Position the saw blade to
the left, side of the "pattern line" depending on your
preference for the laser line location. Lock the board
in place with the hold-down clamp.
(d) With the saw plugged in, turn on the laser guide. Your
saw has been preset with the laser line to the left side
of the blade.
WARNING
When making laser line adjustments, keep
fi ngers away from the ON/OFF trigger switch to
prevent accidental starting and possible serious
injury.
(e) Slide the cutting head forward enough so that the
laser line is visible on the front of the board.
(f) Looking at the front of the board, if the laser line is
not parallel to the "pattern line" please follow the
instructions listed below under "Front line" paragraph.
(g) Looking at the top of the board, if the laser line is
not parallel to the "pattern line" please follow the
instructions listed below under "Top line" paragraph.
NOTE
If the laser line is not visible on the front of a board,
lower the cutting head until the laser line is visible.
(3) Adjusting the position of the laser line
Front line

NOTE
○ When adjusting the front line and top line, turning
the adjustment knob too much will result in the laser
refl ecting off of the saw blade to produce two laser
lines.
○ After performing the above adjustments, visually
check that both the front and top laser lines are
parallel with pattern line.
