7. The laser guide
WARNING
● For your own safety, never insert the battery or AC/
DC adaptor to tool until all the adjustment steps are
complete and you have read and understood the safety
and operational instructions.
● Your tool is equipped with a laser guide using a Class
1M laser guide. The laser guide allows you to preview
the saw blade path on the workpiece to be cut before
starting the miter saw. The saw must be connected to the
power source and the laser on/off switch must be turned
on for the laser line to show.
(1) Avoid direct eye contact (Fig. 17)
WARNING
* AVOID EXPOSURE
Laser radiation is emitted from this aperture.
CAUTION
● Use of controls or adjustments or performance of
procedures may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
● The use of optical instruments with this product will
increase eye hazard.
WARNING
Do not attempt to repair or disassemble the laser. If
unqualifi ed persons attempt to repair this laser product,
serious injury may result. Any repair required on this
laser product should be performed by a qualifi ed service
dealer.
(2) Checking laser line alignment (Fig. 18)
(a) Set the saw to a 0° miter and 0° bevel setting.
(b) Use a combination square to mark a 90° angled running
across the top and down the front of a board. This line
will serve as the pattern line to adjust the laser. Place the
board on the saw table.
(c) Carefully lower the saw head down to align the saw blade
with the pattern line. Position the saw blade to the left,
side of the "pattern line" depending on your preference
for the laser line location. Lock the board in place with
the hold-down clamp.
(d) With the saw plugged in, turn on the laser guide. Your
saw has been preset with the laser line to the left side of
the blade.
WARNING
When making laser line adjustments, keep fi ngers away
from the ON/OFF trigger switch to prevent accidental
starting and possible serious injury.
(e) Slide the cutting head forward enough so that the laser
line is visible on the front of the board.
(f) Looking at the front of the board, if the laser line is not
parallel to the "pattern line" please follow the instructions
listed below under "Front line" paragraph.
(g) Looking at the top of the board, if the laser line is not
parallel to the "pattern line" please follow the instructions
listed below under "Top line" paragraph.
NOTE
If the laser line is not visible on the front of a board, lower
the cutting head until the laser line is visible.
(3) Adjusting the position of the laser line (Fig. 19)
Front line
If the laser line is angled from pattern line of front side,
turn the laser vertical adjustment knob to align the laser
line parallel with pattern line. (Fig. 19- b)
Top line
If the laser line is angled from pattern line of top side, turn
the laser horizontal adjustment knob to align the laser
line parallel with pattern line. (Fig. 19- c)
NOTE
○ When adjusting the front line and top line, turning
the adjustment knob too much will result in the laser
refl ecting off of the saw blade to produce two laser lines.
○ After performing the above adjustments, visually check
that both the front and top laser lines are parallel with
pattern line.

PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS

WARNING
○ To avoid personal injury, never remove or place a
workpiece on the table while the tool is being operated.
○ Never place your limbs inside of the line next to warning
sign while the tool is being operated (see Fig. 20). This
may cause hazardous conditions.
CAUTION
○ It is dangerous to remove or install the workpiece while
the saw blade is turning.
○ When sawing, clean off the shavings from the turntable.
○ If the shavings accumulate too much, the saw blade from
the cutting material will be exposed. Never subject your
hand or anything else to go near the exposed blade.
NOTE
Prior to operating the switch, make sure to check the
stability of the tool by setting the angle and turn to
conduct a trial cutting run without using a workpiece.
1. Switch operation (Fig. 21)
(1) Turning the saw on
This miter saw is equipped with a trigger switch. With the
lock-off button pressed, squeeze the trigger switch to
turn the miter saw ON. Release the trigger switch to turn
the saw OFF.
(2) Turning the laser guide / LED light on
Press the laser switch to turn it ON, and press again to
turn it OFF.
Press the the LED light switch to turn it ON, and press
again to turn it OFF.
WARNING
Make the ON/OFF switch childproof. Insert a padlock,
or chain with padlock, through the hole in the trigger
and lock the tool's switch, preventing children and other
unqualifi ed users from turning the machine on.
2. Using the Vise Assembly (Standard accessory)
(1) The vise assembly can be mounted on the base.
(2) Turn the upper knob and securely fi x the workpiece in
position (Fig. 22).
NOTE
When using the vise, make sure that the tool is free of
any excessive contact when the unit is swung or slid.
WARNING
Always fi rmly clamp or vise to secure the workpiece to
the fence; otherwise the workpiece might be thrust from
the table and cause bodily harm.
3. Cutting Operation
(1) As shown in Fig. 23 the width of the saw blade is the
width of the cut. Therefore, slide the workpiece to the
right (viewed from the operator's position) when length
ⓑ is desired, or to the left when length ⓐ is desired.
If a laser marker is used, align the laser line with the left
side of the saw blade, and then align the ink line with the
laser line.
(2) Once the saw blade reaches maximum speed, push the
handle down carefully until the saw blade approaches
the workpiece.
(3) Once the saw blade contacts the workpiece, push the
handle down gradually to cut into the workpiece.
(4) After cutting the workpiece to the desired depth, turn the
power tool OFF and let the saw blade stop completely
before raising the handle from the workpiece to return it
to the full retract position.
CAUTION
Increased pressure on the handle will not increase the
cutting speed.
On the contrary, too much pressure may result in
overload of the motor and/or decreased cutting
effi ciency.
