Adjusting the laser
Note: To test the laser function, the power tool must be connected to the power supply.
- While adjusting the laser (e.g. when moving the tool arm), never activate the on/off switch. Starting the power tool accidentally can lead to injuries.
- Bring the power tool into the work position.
- Turn the saw table (17) to the 0° detent (27). The lever (23) must be felt to engage in the detent.
- Draw a straight cutting line on the workpiece.
- Slowly guide the tool arm downwards using the handle (9).
- Position the workpiece so that the teeth of the saw blade line up with the cutting line.
- Hold the workpiece in this position and slowly guide the tool arm back up.
- Clamp the workpiece.
- Switch on the laser beams using the laser/worklight on/off button (54).
The laser beams must be flush with the cutting line on the workpiece along its entire length, even if the tool arm is guided downwards.
1. Adjusting the right-hand laser beam:
- Turn the right-hand set screw (68) using the hex key (44) until the entire length of the right-hand laser beam is flush with the cutting line marked on the workpiece.
This also moves the left-hand laser beam.
One rotation anticlockwise moves the laser beam from left to right; one rotation clockwise moves the laser beam from right to left.
2. Adjusting the left-hand laser beam:
- Turn the left-hand set screw (68) using the hex key (44) until the left-hand laser beam is the same distance away from the cutting line marked on the workpiece as the right-hand laser beam.
One rotation anticlockwise moves the laser beam from left to right; one rotation clockwise moves the laser beam from right to left.
