-14- (4) Caution label (J) (at the front of the hinge) an d c aution labels (C) and (E) (at the front lef t of the turn table) (only the Model C 8FS HE) Do not stare into laser beam. If your eye is expo sed dire ctly to the laser beam, it can be hurt.
-15- CAUTION: (1) Be sure to disconne ct the power cord plug from the recept acle before removing the laser marker for rep air . If it is unavoidable to check the operation of the removed laser marker with the po w er turned on, face the laser emitting aper ture to the ground to show the laser line on the ground.
-16- 1. Confirmation of saw blade lower limit position The lower limit of the saw blade cutting depth is fact o ry-adjusted so that when the saw blade is fully lowered, it s cutting edge is 10 to 1 1 .
-17- 3. Position adjustment of laser line (Only the Model C 8FSHE) The laser line is adjusted to the wid th of the saw blade at the time of factory shipment. Depending upon the cutting choice, align the laser line with the lef t side of the cutting width (saw blade) or the right side accord ing to the following procedure.
-18- 4. How to use the vise assembly (1) The vise assembly can be m ounted on either the left fence (fence (B)) or the right fence (fence (A)) by loosening 6 mm wing bolt (A). (2) The screw h older can be raised or lowered according to the height of the workpiece by loosening 6 mm wing b olt (B).
-19- 6. Cutting operation (1) Cutting ef ficiency will be reduced if a dull saw blade is used, if an excessively long extension cord is used, or if the wire gauge of the extension cord is too small. (For det ails, refer to the Instruction Manual "USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD.
-20- NOTE: Techniques to avoid unwanted cutting marks Uneven and un w anted cutting marks can be avoided by shifting from 3 press cutting to 4 slide cutting in a single, uninterrupted motion.

-22- 2 T ilt the motor head to the left and set the bevel angle as follows: * For 45° type crown moldings: 30 ° ( mark) * For 38° type crown moldings: 33.9 ° ( mark) 3 Position the crown molding so that the upper surface ( in Fig. 25) contact s the fence as indicated in Fig.
-23- W ARNING: Always firmly clamp or vise to secure the cro w n molding to the fence; othe r wise the crown molding might be thrust from the t able and cause bodily harm. Do not perform bevel cutting. The main body or the saw bl ade may contact the sub fence, resulting in an injury .
-24- 1. Bevel angle adjustment Before shipping from the factory , the height of 8-mm bolts (A) an d (B) is adjusted so that the saw blade section (head) will stop at 0° (right angle ), and 45° to the left. T o change the head stop positions, instruct the customer to adjust the height of 8-mm bolt s (A) and (B) by turning them.
-25- (1) How to inst all packing s (A) and (B) Remove the dust bag from the main body . Slide the head section toward the operator and insert packing (A) between the slide pipe, hinge and holder (A).
