Replacing the Laser Batteries
See Assembly section of manual for battery replacement procedures.
Testing the Laser
1. Make a 24" long cut in a larger sheet of plywood or other flat stable material. Use the rip
fence or a strait edge to ensure the cut is straight. Allow the saw blade to come to a complete
stop before removing saw from cut.
2. Adjust the saw base for maximum depth of cut. Open the blade guard and place the saw
blade into cut made in step 1. Position the blade at the beginning of the cut making sure the
teeth at the front and rear are in contact with the cut on the same side.
3. Turn the laser on and observe the location of the beam. The laser is in alignment when the
beam disappears within the saw cut and no red light is visible on the surface of the material.
If red light is visible proceed with adjustment.
Adjusting the Laser
1. (SEE FIGURE 18) Move the On/Off rocker
switch (1) to the off "0" position.
2. If the beam in the test crosses the saw cut
or is entirely on the left or right side and not
parallel with the cut, rotational adjustment
is required:
a. Turn the laser on.
b. Carefully rotate the laser emitter (2) by
hand, until the beam is parallel with the
saw cut.
3. If the beam is parallel with the saw cut, but visible on the left or right side of the saw cut,
alignment adjustment is required:
a. Turn the laser on.
b. Carefully rotate the alignment adjusting screws (3) left or right until the beam disappears
in the saw cut.

WARNING: RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY. Read and understand all instructions. Failure to
follow all instructions listed below may result in electrical shock, fire and/or serious personal
injury. The term "power tool" in all of the warnings listed below refers to your mains-operated
(corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Work Area
1. Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents
2. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presences of
flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks, which may ignite the dust
or fumes.
3. Keep bystanders, children and visitors away while operating a power tool. Distractions can
cause you to loose control.
Electrical Safety
1. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any
adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodfied plugs and matching outlets
will reduce risk of electrical shock.
2. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges,
and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electrical shock if your body is earthed
or grounded.
3. Do not expose power tool to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electrical shock.
4. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power
tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entaqngled
cords increase the risk of electrical shock.
5. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use.
Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electrical shock.
Personal Safety

Pocket Cutting
Pocket cutting is used to start a cut in a
piece of wood from other than the edge. Use
extreme caution when beginning a
pocket cut.
1. (SEE FIGURE 12) Tilt the saw forward so the
front of the base is firmly in contact with
the wood.
2. Using the handle (1) on the lower blade
guard (2), pull back the guard to expose the
blade. Lower the saw until the teeth of the
saw almost touch the wood. Release the
lower blade guard.
3. While holding the saw with both hands, turn
the saw on and allow it to come to
full speed.
4. While keeping the front of the base in firm
contact with the work piece, slowly tilt the
saw until the blade contacts the wood.
Continue tilting the saw until the saw base
rest flat on the wood and the saw blade
spins freely.
5. Allow the saw blade to come to a complete
stop before removing saw from pocket.
Using the Rip Fence
1. (SEE FIGURE 13) Slide rip fence into slots
on saw base. Adjust to the desired position
shown on rip scale and secure with adjust-
ment knob.
2. Follow cutting procedure as outlined in
"General Cutting" section of this manual.
Cutting Sheet Goods
WARNING: Cutting sheet goods is prone to
kickback. You must read, understand and
follow "Causes and Operator Prevention of
Kickback" section of this manual.
1. (SEE FIGURE 14) Position long workpieces
and sheet goods so that both the cut and
large cut-off pieces are supported.
2. Provide a secondary support means near
the blade to prevent sagging that could
pinch the blade.
3. Adjust depth of cut so that workpiece is cut
but not the underlying supports.
4. Follow cutting procedure as outlined in
"General Cutting" section of this manual.
DANGER:
1. Keep hands away from cutting area and the blade. Keep your second hand on auxiliary
handle or motor housing. If both hands are holding the saw, they cannot be cut by the blade.
2. Do not reach underneath the workpiece. The guard cannot protect you from the blade below
the workpiece.
3. Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of the workpiece. Less than a full tooth of the
blade teeth should be visible below workpiece.
4. Never hold piece being cut in your hand or across your leg. Secure the workpiece to a
stable platform. It is important to support the work properly to minimize body exposure, blade
binding or loss of control.
5. Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the
cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with "live" wire will also
make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and shock the operator.
6. When ripping always use rip fence or straight edge guide. This improves the accuracy of the
cut and reduces the chance of blade binding.
7. Always use blades with correct size and shape (diamond verses round) of arbor holes.
Blades that do not match the mounting hardware of the saw will run eccentrically, causing
loss of control.
8. Never use damaged or incorrect blade washer or bolt. The blade washer and bold were
specially designed for your saw, for optimum performance and safety of operation.
WARNING:
1. Check lower guard for proper closing before each use. Do not operate the saw if lower
guard does not move freely and close instantly. Never clamp or tie the lower guard into the
open position. If saw is accidentally dropped, lower guard may be bent. Raise the lower
guard with the retracting handle and make sure it moves freely and does not touch the blade
or any other part, in all angles and depths of cut.
2. Check the operation of the lower guard spring. If the guard and the spring are not
operating properly, they must be serviced before use. Lower guard may operate sluggishly
due to damaged parts, gummy deposits, or a build-up of debris.
3. Lower guard should be retracted manually only for special cuts such as "plunge cuts" and
"compound cuts." Raise lower guard by retracting handle and as soon as blade enters the
material, the lower guard must be released. For all other sawing, the lower guard should
operate automatically.
4. Always observe that the lower guard is covering the blade before placing saw down on
bench or floor. An unprotected, coasting blade will cause the saw to walk backwards, cutting
whatever is in its path. Be aware of the time it takes for the blade to stop after switch
is released.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY. Never touch the saw blade while it is moving.
Do not touch the saw blade after operation, it will be very hot.
CAUTION: Remove all nails, staples, fasteners, foreign objects or other debris before sawing.
Make sure there is enough space under and behind the work piece for the saw blade.
1. Always hold the tool firmly with both hands and keep the base plate flush with the work
piece. Uneven contact with the work piece can cause kickback, excessive vibration, blade
damage or breakage.
2. Mark the desired cut with a pencil or chalk line. Align the laser or base plate notch with the
cut line.
3. For repetitive cuts or when ripping long material, use the rip fence for accuracy.
4. Never turn the saw ON with the saw blade in contact with the material.
General Cutting
1. (SEE FIGURE 11) Set bevel cut adjustment
to the desired angle.
2. Set depth of cut adjustment for
the workpiece.
3. Grasp the saw handle firmly with one hand
and the auxiliary handle with the other.
Squeeze the trigger and allow blade to
reach each full speed before starting
the cut.
NOTE: Cut the wood with the appearance
side down for a clean cut. Since the saw
cuts upward, the bottom surface of the
wood is less likely to splinter.
4. Slowly advance the saw into and through
the workpiece. Feed saw with a light,
continous pressure. Do not force the saw.
5. After the cut is complete, release the trigger
switch and allow the saw blade guard to
return to the closed position before
releasing your grip.
6. If the cut is interrupted before completion,
release the trigger switch and hold the saw
motionless in the material until the blade
comes to a complete stop.
7. When resuming an interrupted cut, center
the saw blade in the kerf and check that the
saw teeth are not engaged in the material
before starting the saw. Squeeze the trigger
and allow blade to reach full speed before
resuming the cut.
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched, bound or misaligned saw blade, causing an
uncontrolled saw to lift up and out of the workpiece toward the operator. When the blade is
pinched or bound tightly by the kerf closing down, the blade stalls and the motor reaction
drives the unit rigidly back toward the operator. If the blade becomes twisted or misaligned in
the cut, the teeth at the back edge of the blade can dig into the top surface of the wood
causing the blade to climb out of the curf and jump back toward the operator.
Kickback is the result of saw misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or conditions
and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as given below:
1. Maintain a firm grip with both hands on the saw and position your arms to resist kickback
forces. Position your body to either side of the blade, but not in line with the blade.
Kickback could cause the saw to jump backwards, but kickback forces can be controlled by
the operator, if proper precautions are taken.
2. When blade is binding, or when interrupting a cut for any reason, release the trigger and
hold the saw motionless in the material until the blade comes to a complete stop. Never
attempt to remove the saw from the work or pull the saw backward while the blade is in
motion or kickback may occur. Investigate and take corrective actions to eliminate the cause
of blade binding.
3. When restarting a saw in the workpiece, center the saw blade in the kerf and check that
saw teeth are not engaged into the material. If saw blade is binding, it may walk up or
kickback from the workpiece as the saw is restarted.
4. Support large panels to minimize the risk of blade pinching and kickback. Large tend to
sag under their own weight. Supports must be placed under the panel on both sides, near the
line of cut and near the edge of the panel.
5. Do not use dull or damaged blades. Unsharpened or improperly set blades produce narrow
kerf causing excessive friction, blade binding and kickback.
6. Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking levers must be tight and secure before making
cut. If blade adjustment shifts while cutting, it may cause binding and kickback.
7. Use extra caution when making a "plunge cut" into existing walls or other blind areas. The
protruding blade may cut objects that can cause kickback.
DANGER: LASER RADIATION - Do not stare into the beam. Use of controls or adjustments
or performance of procedures other than those specified in this instruction manual may result
in hazardous radiation exposure.
1. Laser radiations on work table - Do not stare into reflected light from work surface.
2. Avoid exposure - Laser light is emitted from the housing front aperture. Do not stare into
the aperture.
3. Do not disassemble laser.
4. Operate laser only when cutting. Turn laser off after use.

CONNECTION TO THE POWER SUPPLY
CONTENTS
Electrical Safety
1. Double Insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other.)
This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a polarized
outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. Double insulation eliminates the need for the three
wire grounded power cord and grounded power supply system.
2. Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electrical shock if your body is grounded.
3. Don't expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase
the risk of electrical shock.
4. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tools or pull the plug from the outlet.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace damaged cords
immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electrical shock.
Extension Cords
1. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to
use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will
cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. Table 1 shows the
correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate Ampere rating. If in doubt, use
the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
2. When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked "W-A" or "W".
These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electrical shock.
3. Use only UL listed extension cords. Inspect extension cord before use and never use damaged
or altered extension cords. Follow extension cord manufacturer safety instruction.
4. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace damaged cords
immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electrical shock.
