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 decision the position to be cut, return the handle to the original
position. Secure the workpiece with the vertical vise without shifting the
workpiece from the pre-checked position.

6. Adjust the position of laser line as follows.
The position of laser line can be changed as the movable range of the adjust-

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.
