MOUNTING THE LASER GUIDE
See Figure 21.
• Unplug your saw.
See "To Install Blade" on page 19 of this operator's
manual.
• Make sure inner blade washer is in place before
positioning saw blade on the spindle of your saw.
NOTE: The laser guide replaces the outer blade
washer.
• Place the laser guide onto the spindle, aligning the
double "D" flats inthe laser guide with the flats on the
spindle.
• Position flat surface of laser guide against the blade.
Warning labels are visible when laser guide is mounted
properly.
• Depress spindle lock button and secure laser guide
using only the special hex key bolt provided.
NOTE: The hex key bolt has left hand threads. Turn
bolt counterclockwise to tighten.
• Using the blade wrench provided with your saw,
tighten bolt securely.
• Remove the blade wrench and return it to the storage
area in the saw's base.
• Replace the lower blade guard and blade bolt cover.
• Retighten phillips screw securing blade bolt cover.
Tighten screw securely.
_ DANGER: Laser radiation. Avoid direct eye contact
with light source.
ALIGNING THE LASER GUIDE LINE
See Figure 22.
The laser guide will generate a red colored line on the
work surface when the blade is spinning above 500 rpm.
The red laser line will appear as a broken line on the
workpiece when the blade assembly is in the uppermost
position and the motor switch is activated. This broken
line will let you see your mark and your laser guide line at
the same time, and will assist you in lining up your mark
for more accurate cutting of the workpiece.
Align the laser line and your mark with the blade at the up-
permost position. Once both lines are in alignment, do not
move the workpiece until after you have finished cutting.
As the blade assembly is lowered toward the workpiece,
the broken line will become solid.
Make several practice cuts on different styles and thick-
ness of material.
Follow the directions below for using your laser guide.
Removing Your Mark:
Position the laser line near the left edge of your mark on
the work surface in order to remove the mark.
To Cut Your Mark:
Position the laser line near or over your mark on the work
surface in order to cut the mark.
To Leave Your Mark:
Position the laser line near the right edge of your mark on
the work surface in order to leave the mark.
After you have become familiar with using your laser
guide, you will be able to remove, cut, or leave your mark
on the work surface. Practice will teach you the correct
position for aligning the laser line with your mark.
