For both adjustments, do as follows.
1. Make sure that the tool is unplugged.
2. Draw the cutting line on the workpiece and place it
on the turn table. At this time, do not secure the
workpiece with a vise or similar securing device.
3. Lower the blade by lowering the handle and just
check to see where the cutting line and the
position of the saw blade is. (Decide which
position to cut on the line of cut.)
4. After deciding the correct position of the line in
relation to the blade, return the handle to the
original position. Secure the workpiece with the
vertical vise without shifting the workpiece from
the pre-checked position.
5. Plug the tool and turn on the laser switch.
6. Adjust the position of laser line as follows.
The position of laser line can be changed as the movable
range of the adjusting screw for the laser is changed by
turning two screws with a hex wrench. (The movable
range of laser line is factory adjusted within 1 mm from
the side surface of blade.)
To shift the laser line movable range further away from
the side surface of blade, turn the two screws
counterclockwise after loosening the adjusting screw.
Turn these two screws clockwise to shift it closer to the
side surface of the blade after loosening the adjusting
screw.
Refer to the section titled "Laser line action" and adjust
the adjusting screw so that the cutting line on your
workpiece is aligned with the laser line.
NOTE:
• Check the position of laser line regularly for
accuracy .
• Have the tool repaired by a Makita authorized
service center for any failure on the laser unit.
