Switching off:

Release the ON / OFF switch 3 .

Setting the cutting angle

You can set the cutting angle accurately with the help of the cutting angle scale 12b .

Release the wing screws / locking bolts of the cutting angle preselector 9 on both sides, set

the desired angle on the cutting angle scale 12b and retighten the wing screws / locking bolts.

Setting the cutting depth

Note: If possible we recommend that the cutting depth is set approximately 3 mm greater than the material thickness. This should help to ensure you achieve a clean cut.

Release the wing screw on the cutting depth setting clamp 5 , set the required cutting depth on the scale 19 and retighten the wing screw.

Setting the guide fence

Release the wing screw 13 of the base plate 8 and insert the guide fence 15 into the slot 14 . Retighten the wing screw 13 .

Switching the laser on and off
