Cleaning of the lens for the laser light
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.
To remove the lens for the laser light, remove the saw blade before removing
the lens according to the instructions in the section titled “Installing or remov-
ing saw blade”.
Loosen but do not remove the screw which secures the lens using a screw-
driver.
Pull out the lens as shown in the figure.
NOTE:
•
If the lens does not come out, loosen the screw further and pull out the
lens again without removing the screw.
Replacing carbon brushes
Remove and check the carbon brushes regularly. Replace when they wear
down to the limit mark. Keep the carbon brushes clean and free to slip in the
holders. Both carbon brushes should be replaced at the same time. Use only
identical carbon brushes.
Use a screwdriver to remove the brush holder caps. Take out the worn carbon
brushes, insert the new ones and secure the brush holder caps.
