Using the parallel fence

The parallel fence (12) allows you to make parallel cuts in a sheet of wood, all at the same width.

CAUTION. Always ensure that the saw is switched off and unplugged from the power supply before making any adjustments.

1. Loosen the parallel fence locking knob (11)

2.Slide the parallel fence (12) through the slots in the base plate (15).

3.Adjust the parallel fence to the required width and secure it in position with the parallel fence locking knob (11).

4.Ensure that the parallel fence rests against the wood along its entire length to give a consistent parallel cut.

Using the REDEYE® system

WARNING. Do not stare directly at the laser beam.

Never aim the beam at any person or an object other than the workpiece.

Do not deliberately aim the beam at personnel and ensure that it is not directed towards the eye of a person for longer than 0.25s.

Always ensure the laser beam is aimed at a sturdy workpiece without reflective surfaces. i.e. 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 tool is on workpiece.

1.Mark the line of the cut on the workpiece.

2.Adjust the depth of cut and bevel angle as required.

3.Rest the front edge of the base on the workpiece.

4.Switch on the laser beam using the laser light on/off button (2).

5.Align the beam with the line on the workpiece.

6.Start the motor by depressing the lock-off button (5) and squeezing the trigger switch (4).

7.Always let the blade reach full speed (approximately 2 seconds) before you begin to cut into the workpiece.

8.Slowly push the saw forward using both hands, keeping the red laser light beam on the line of cut.

9.After completing your cut, release the trigger switch and allow the blade to come to a complete stop. Do not remove the saw from the workpiece while the blade is moving.

10.Switch off the laser beam on completion of the cut.
