English
(1) Light up the laser marker and make a groove of about
5 mm deep on the workpiece that is about 38 mm in
height and 89 mm in width. Hold the grooved workpiece
by vise as it is and do not move it.
(2) Then insert a 4 mm hex. bar wrench in the 12 diameter
hole on the side of the gear case, turn the hex. socket
set screw to move the laser line. (If you turn the Hex.
socket screw clockwise, the laser line will shift to the
right and if you turn it counterclockwise, the laser line
will shift to the left.) When you work with the ink line
aligned with the left side of the saw blade, align the
laser line with the left end of the groove (Fig. 13). When
you align it with the right side of the saw blade, align the
laser line with the right side of the groove.
(3) After adjusting the position of the laser line, draw a
right-angle ink line on the workpiece and align the ink
line with the laser line. When aligning the ink line, slide
the workpiece little by little and secure it by vise at a
position where the laser line overlaps with the ink line.
Work on the grooving again and check the position
of the laser line. If you wish to change the laser line's
position, make adjustments again following the steps
from (1) to (3).
WARNING (Fig. 14 and Fig. 15)
○ Make sure before plugging the power plug into the
receptacle that the main body and the laser marker are
turned off .
○ Exercise utmost caution in handling a switch trigger for
the position adjustment of the laser line, as the power
plug is plugged into the receptacle during operation.
If the switch trigger is pulled inadvertently, the saw
blade can rotate and result in unexpected accidents.
○ Do not remove the laser marker to be used for other
purposes.
CAUTION
○ Laser radiation - Do not stare into beam.
○ Laser radiation on work table. Do not stare into beam. If
your eye is exposed directly to the laser beam, it can be
hurt.
○ Do not dismantle it.
○ Do not give strong impact to the laser marker (main
body of tool); otherwise, the position of a laser line can
go out of order, resulting in the damage of the laser
marker as well as a shortened service life.
○ Keep the laser marker lit only during a cutting operation.
Prolonged lighting of the laser marker can result in a
shortened service life.
○ Use of controls or adjustments or performance of
procedures other than those specifi ed herein may
result in hazardous radiation exposure.
NOTE
○ Perform cutting by overlapping the ink line with the laser
line.
○ When the ink line and the laser line are overlapped, the
strength and weakness of light will change, resulting
in a stable cutting operation because you can easily
discern the conformity of lines. This ensures the
minimum cutting errors.
○ In outdoor or near-the-window operations, it may
become diffi cult to observe the laser line due to the
sunlight. Under such circumstances, move to a place
that is not directly under the sunlight and engage in the
operation.
○ Do not tug on the cord behind the motor head or hook
your fi nger, wood and the like around it; otherwise, the
cord may come off and the laser marker may not be lit
up.

○ Check and make sure on a periodic basis if the position
of the laser line is in order. As regards the checking
method, draw a right-angle ink line on the workpiece
with the height of about 38 mm and the width of 89 mm,
and check that the laser line is in line with the ink line
[The deviation between the ink line and the laser line
should be less than the ink line width (0.5 mm)] (Fig. 16).
9. Cutting operation
(1) As shown in Fig. 17 the width of the saw blade is the
width of the cut. Therefore, slide the workpiece to the
right (viewed from the operator's position) when length
ⓑ is desired, or to the left when length ⓐ is desired.
(Only Model C10FCH2)
If a laser marker is used, align the laser line with the left
side of the saw blade, and then align the ink line with the
laser line.
(2) Once the saw blade reaches maximum speed, slowly
push down the handle while pushing the lock lever (C)
and bring the saw blade in the vicinity of the material to
be cut.
(3) Once the saw blade contacts the workpiece, push the
handle down gradually to cut into the workpiece.
(4) After cutting the workpiece to the desired depth, turn the
power tool OFF and let the saw blade stop completely
before raising the handle from the workpiece to return it
to the full retract position.
CAUTION
○ For maximum dimensions for cutting, refer to
"SPECIFICATIONS" table.
○ Increased pressure on the handle will not increase the
cutting speed. On the contrary, too much pressure may
result in overload of the motor and/or decreased cutting
effi ciency.
○ Confi rm that the trigger switch is turned OFF and the
power plug has been removed from the receptacle
whenever the tool is not in use.
○ Always turn the power off and let the saw blade
stop completely before raising the handle from the
workpiece. If the handle is raised while the saw blade
is still rotating, the cut-off piece may become jammed
against the saw blade causing fragments to scatter
about dangerously.
○ Every time one cutting of deep-cutting operation is
fi nished, turn the switch off , and check that the saw
blade has stopped. Then raise the handle, and return it
to the full retract position.
○ Be absolutely sure to remove the cut material from the
top of the turntable, and then proceed to the next step.
10. Miter cutting procedures
(1) Loosen the side handle and push the lever for angle
stoppers. Then, adjust the turntable until the indicator
aligns with desired setting on the miter scale (Fig. 18).
(2) Re-tighten the side handle to secure the turntable in the
desired position.
NOTE
○ Positive stops are provided at the right and left of the 0°
center setting, at 15°, 22.5°, 31.6° and 45° settings.
Check that the miter scale and the tip of the indicator
are properly aligned.
○ Operation of the saw with the miter scale and indicator
out of alignment, or with the side handle not properly
tightened, will result in poor cutting precision.
CAUTION
○ Never remove the side handle; use of the tool without it
would be hazardous.
To prevent an accident or personal injury always fi rmly
tighten the miter handle.
