on the turn base. At this time, do not secure the work-
piece with a vise or similar securing device.
3. Lower the handle and align the cutting line with
the saw blade.

Return the handle to the original position and
secure the workpiece with the vertical vise so that the
workpiece does not move from the position you have
determined.

away from the blade, turn the range adjustment screws
counterclockwise. To move the laser line close to the
