Ink lining can be easily made on this tool to the laser marker. A switch lights up the laser marker. (Fig. 20)

Depending upon your cutting choice, the laser line can be aligned with the left side of the cutting width (saw blade) or the ink line on the right side.

The laser line is adjusted to the width of the saw blade at the time of factory shipment. Adjust the positions of the saw blade and the laser line taking the following steps to suit the use of your choice.

(1)Light up the laser marker and make a groove of about 5mm (3/16") deep on the workpiece that is about 20mm (25/32") in height and 150mm (5-29/32") in width. Hold the grooved workpiece by vise as it is and do not move it. For grooving work, refer to "11.Groove cutting procedures" on page 27.

(2)Then, turn the adjuster and shift the laser line. (If you turn the adjuster clockwise, the laser line will shift to the right and if you turn it counterclockwise, the laser line will shift to the left.) When you work with the ink line aligned with the left side of the saw blade, align the laser line with the left end of the groove. (Fig. 22) When you align it with the right side of the saw blade, align the laser line with the right side of the groove.

(3)After adjusting the position of the laser line, draw a right-angle ink line on the workpiece and align the ink line with the laser line. When aligning the ink line, slide the workpiece little by little and secure it by vise at a position where the laser line overlaps with the ink line. Work on the grooving again and check the position of the laser line. If you wish to change the laser line's position, make adjustments again following the steps from (1) to (3).
