If the lens for the laser light becomes dirty, or sawdust
adheres to it in such a way that the laser line is no longer
easily visible, unplug the saw and remove and clean the
lens for the laser light carefully with a damp, soft cloth.
Do not use solvents or any petroleum-based cleaners on
the lens.
