OPERATION
ADJUSTING BLADE DEPTH
See Figure 14.
Always keep correct blade depth setting. The correct
blade depth setting for all cuts should not exceed 1/4 in. (6.35 mm) below the material being cut. More blade depth will increase the chance of kickback and cause the cut to be rough. For more depth of cut accuracy, a scale is
located on the upper blade guard.
Follow these directions to adjust the blade depth.

USING THE LASER GUIDE
See Figure 15
WARNING: Do not stare into the laser beam or turn the laser on when the tool is not in use. Failure to do so could result in possible serious personal injury. The laser unit comes from the factory al- ready installed and aligned. If the laser becomes misaligned after time refer to the "adjustments" section.
NOTE: Make a trial cut on a piece of scrap to ensure laser is aligned, adjusting the laser may be necessary.
�n Mark the line to be cut on the workpiece.
�n Adjust the depth and angle of the cut as needed. �n Switch on the laser beam.
�n Install battery pack into the tool and start the motor.
NOTE: Do not touch the blade to the workpiece until the saw has reached maximum speed.
�n Slowly push the saw forward into the workpiece.
NOTE: Keep the laser beam on the marked line on the workpiece for precision cutting.
�n Once the cut is complete, allow the saw to come to a complete stop before turning off the laser.
�n Remove battery pack from saw.
