LASER SAFETY
ATTENTION: LASER RADIATION. Class 2 laser. DO NOT STARE INTO THE BEAM
1. Do not look directly into the laser beam with unprotected eyes. Never look into the path of the beam.
2. Never point the laser beam towards reflecting surfaces. Never point the laser towards people or animals. Even a
laser beam with a low output can cause damage to the eyes.
3. Remove the laser batteries before storing the miter saw for an extended period of time.
4. Never open the laser module as unexpected exposure to the beam can occur. The laser cannot be replaced with
a different type of laser.
5. Repairs of the laser may only be carried out by the laser manufacturer or an authorised representative.
BATTERY SAFETY
1. Do not short-circuit batteries. Keep the batteries away from metal objects when not in use.
2. Do not charge non-rechargeable batteries.
3. Do not mix old and new batteries or batteries of different types. Replace an entire set of batteries at the same time.
4. Do not keep batteries near fire, ovens or other sources of heat. Do not use batteries in direct sunlight.
5. Remove batteries from the equipment when it will not be used for an extended period of time.
6. Never handle batteries that have leaked without appropriate protection. If the leaked fluid comes into contact
with your skin, the skin in this area should be rinsed off under running water immediately. Always prevent the fluid
from coming into contact with the eyes and mouth. In the event of contact, please seek immediate medical attention.
7. Do not dismantle batteries. Dispose of used batteries properly at your local collection/recycling facility.
