that the directional arrow on the blade surface matches the 
arrow on the upper blade guard.
9.   Replace the outer blade flange and the blade bolt. 
10.   Depress and hold down the spindle lock (7) while tightening 
the blade locking bolt securely with the 13 mm wrench in a

LASER GUIDE (FIG 10)
  WARNING:  Laser light – do not stare 
into the beam, aperture, or into a reflection from a 
mirror-like surface. 
 WARNING: Avoid exposure – laser light 
is emitted from the rear guard aperture. Use 
of controls or adjustments, or performance of 
procedures other than those specified herein may 
result in hazardous laser light exposure. 
 WARNING: DO not disassemble the laser 
module. 
 WARNING: USE of controls or adjustments 
or performance of procedures other than those 
specified herein may result in hazardous radiation 
exposure. 
Your miter saw is equipped with a battery powered laser (1). The 
Laser Battery Compartment (30-FIG 1) is located at the right side 
of the saw  under the motor. Install two included AAA batteries into 
battery compartment before using the laser. The Laser ON/OFF 
switch is located on the laser battery compartment. 
The laser alignment was made at the factory and is set for the 
center of the blade or draw line. Adjustment may be required prior 
to initial use due to the effects of shipping and handling. You also
have the ability to adjust the line projected by the laser to your liking. You may wish for the laser to be to right or 
left of the blade, or straight on a drawn cut line. Where you ultimately decide to  align the laser in relation to the 
saw blade’s cutting path will determine how you align the cut line.
On each side of the laser are two Phillips head screws (2) which, when loosened, allow movement to the left and 
right. The screw (3) on the laser’s stem area also allows left/right movement, but more importantly will affect 
the straightness of the laser line. Beware that small adjustments can yield dramatic changes in the laser’s path.
