Using the Depth Stop

If a kerfing or rabbet cut which does not cut through the workpiece is desired, 
use the Depth Stop Bolt to control the depth of the cut.

1.  Unlock the Head Lock-down, see page 9.

2.  Raise the saw head assembly.

3.  Pull down on the saw head to 

check the current setting.

4.  Loosen the Depth Stop Nut on the Depth Stop Bolt.

5.  Turn the Depth Stop Bolt clockwise to decrease 

depth and counterclockwise to increase depth.

6.  Tighten the Depth Stop Nut after adjustment.

Workpiece and Work Area Set Up

1.  Designate a work area that is clean and well-lit.  

The work area must not allow access by children 
or pets to prevent injury and distraction.

2.  Route the power cord along a safe route to reach 

the work area without creating a tripping hazard or 
exposing the power cord to possible damage.  The 
power cord must reach the work area with enough 
extra length to allow free movement while working.

3.  Allow room on both left and right of 

saw for extended workpieces.

4.  Use a saw table, saw stand or other means to 

support the workpiece. Mount the Miter Saw 
so that the surface is level to the ground, and 
additional supports provide a surface on the 
same level as the saw table. If the work surface 
and any workpiece supports are not level, and 
on the same level, unwanted bevel angles will 
appear in the cuts resulting in poor joinery.

5.  Secure workpieces to the saw table using the Clamp 

or other clamping devices (not included). Securing 
the workpiece will provide safety by preventing kick 
back and by removing the need to hold workpieces 
near the blade by hand. Clamping the workpiece 
will also improve cutting accuracy by preventing the 
workpiece from moving during the cutting operation.
