CAUTION
Laser radiation - Do not stare into beam.
○
Laser radiation on work table. Do not stare
○
into beam. If your eye is exposed directly to
the laser beam, it can be hurt.
Do not dismantle it.
○
Do not give strong impact to the laser
○
marker (main body of tool); otherwise, the
position of a laser line can go out of order,
resulting in the damage of the laser marker
as well as a shortened service life.
Keep the laser marker lit only during a
○
cutting operation. Prolonged lighting of
the laser marker can result in a shortened
service life.
Use of controls or adjustments or
○
performance of procedures other than
those specifi ed herein may result in
hazardous radiation exposure.
NOTE
Perform cutting by overlapping the ink line
○
with the laser line.
When the ink line and the laser line are overlapped, the strength and weakness of light
○
will change, resulting in a stable cutting operation because you can easily discern the
conformity of lines. This ensures the minimum cutting errors.
In outdoor or near-the-window operations, it may become diffi cult to observe the laser line
○
due to the sunlight. Under such circumstances, move to a place that is not directly under
the sunlight and engage in the operation.
Do not tug on the cord behind the motor head or hook your fi nger, wood and the like around
○
it; otherwise, the cord may come off and the laser marker may not be lit up.
Ink lining can be easily made on this tool to the
laser marker. A switch lights up the laser marker
(Fig. 19).
Depending upon your cutting choice, the laser
line can be aligned with the left side of the cutting
width (saw blade) or the ink line on the right side.
The laser line is adjusted to the width of the saw
blade at the time of factory shipment. Adjust
the positions of the saw blade and the laser line
taking the following steps to suit the use of your
choice.
