THE LASER GUIDE
Your tool is equipped with our latest innovation, the Laser
Guide, a battery powered device using Class II laser
beams. The laser beams will enable you to preview the
drill bit path on the workpiece to be drilled before you
begin your operation.
WARNING
AVOID DIRECT EYE CONTACT
A Laser light is radiated when the laser guide is turned
on. Avoid direct eye contact. Always turn off the laser
and unplug the drill press from the power source before
making any adjustments.
• A laser pointer is not a toy and should not come into
hands of children. Misuse of this appliance can lead
to irreparable eye injuries.
• Any adjustment to increase the laser power is
forbidden.
• When using the laser pointer, do not point the laser
beam towards people and /or refl ecting surfaces.
Even a laser beam of lower intensity may cause eye
damage. Therefore, do not look directly into the laser
beam.

months without use, please remove the batteries to
avoid damage from possibly leaking batteries.
