6.9 Using the laser (Fig. 35-38)
• The laser (31) enables you to make precision cuts with your table saw.
• The laser light is generated by a laser diode powered by two batte-
ries. The laser light is enlarged to form a line and is emitted through
the laser emission aperture. You can then use the line as an optical
marker of the sawing line for precision cuts. Follow the laser safety
instructions.
• Inserting the batteries:
- Remove the saw blade guard (2) (see 5.3). The laser is mounted on
the splitter (4) and now easily accessible.
- Set the laser ON/OFF switch (32) to position 0 (laser off).
- Remove the battery compartment cover (34) by undoing the screws
(33) and turning the mounting plates attached to the screw so that
they no longer block the battery compartment cover (34). Now flip
up the battery compartment cover (34).
- Insert the batteries, ensuring that you fit them the right way around
(see Figure 37).
- Replace the battery compartment cover (34) and secure it with the
screws (33).
• Refit the saw blade guard (2).
• Switching on the laser: Set the laser ON/OFF switch (32) to I. When the
saw blade guard (2) is mounted you can easily access the laser ON/
Off switch (32) through an opening provided in the saw blade guard.
A red laser beam will now be projected from the laser emission aper-
ture. If you guide the laser beam along the sawing line mark as you
saw, you will produce clean, precise cuts.
• Switching off the laser: Set the laser ON/OFF switch (32) to 0. The laser
beam will go out. Always switch off the laser when not in use in order
to save the batteries.
• The laser beam can be blocked by deposits of dust and chips.You
should therefore remove these particles from the laser emission aper-
ture before you use the laser.
• Notes on batteries: If you do not intend to use the laser for a lengthy
period of time, remove the batteries from the battery compartment.
Any leakage of battery fluid might damage the tool.
