receptacle that the main body and the laser marker
are turned off.
* Exercise utmost caution in handling a switch trigger
for the position adjustment of the laser line, as the
power plug is plugged into the receptacle during
operation.
If the switch trigger is pulled inadvertently, the saw
blade can rotate and result in unexpected accidents.
