until all the adjustment steps
are complete and you have read
and understood the safety and
operational instructions.
The laser beam must always be
correctly aligned with the blade to
ensure straight, even cutting.
Your tool is equipped with the Laser
Trac cutting guide using Class II laser

beam. The laser beam will enable to
preview the saw blade path on the
stock to be cut before starting the miter
saw. This laser guide is powered by the
transformed alternating current supply
directly through the power lead. 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.

laser beam and line it up with the
pattern line.
