Operation

IMPORTANT: When using this tool, always wear all the safety equipment
required. See 'Safety' for details.
Turning on and off
• To turn the saw on, depress and
hold the On/Off Trigger Switch (24)
(Fig. d)
• To turn the saw off, release the on/
off trigger switch
Using the laser guide
system
The laser line generator emits 2
intense narrow beams of pure red light
to guide you as you cut.
It improves operator cutting vision, enables faster set-up, increases
accuracy and improves safety.
WARNING
• Do not stare directly at the laser beam
• Never aim the beam at any person or an object other than the
workpiece
• Do not aim the beam at reflective surfaces as the reflective surface
could direct the beam back at the operator
• Always remember to switch off the Laser On/Off Switch (2) after
finishing a job. Only turn the laser beam on when the workpiece is on
the mitre saw table
1. Mark the line of the cut on the workpiece
2. Adjust the angle of mitre and bevel of the cut as required
