1. Place the workpiece firmly against the fence and secure it with the workpiece clamp. For long workpieces, use the auxiliary supports.
2. Adjust the miter and/or bevel angle as required for your cut.
3. Lower the saw head slightly to align the laser line with your cut mark.
4. Ensure the blade is not touching the workpiece before starting the motor.
5. Press the power switch on the handle to start the motor. Allow the blade to reach full speed.
6. Slowly and steadily lower the saw head through the workpiece. Do not force the cut.
7. Once the cut is complete, release the power switch and allow the blade to stop completely before raising the saw head.
8. Remove the cut workpiece.

4.2 Using the Laser Guide

The laser guide projects a line onto the workpiece, indicating the exact cutting path. Activate the laser by pressing its dedicated switch (if available, or it may activate with the main power). Align this line with your pencil mark for highly accurate cuts.

4.3 Dust Collection

The included dust collection bag helps to keep your workspace clean by collecting sawdust during operation. Regularly empty the dust bag to maintain optimal collection efficiency. For enhanced dust extraction, the saw can be connected to an external dust extractor system (adapter may be required).

• Always disconnect the power plug before cleaning.
• Clean the saw regularly to remove sawdust and debris. Use a brush or compressed air.
• Do not use aggressive cleaning agents or solvents.
• Empty the dust collection bag frequently.
• Keep the ventilation slots on the motor housing clear to prevent overheating.

5.2 Blade Replacement

Refer to section 3.2 "Blade Installation" for detailed instructions on how to safely replace the saw blade. Always use sharp, undamaged blades of the correct size and type for your saw.
