press plunge release, and extend blade
roughly

shown in Figure 15.
Note: The cutting depth shown on the scale
is the depth WITHOUT rail track. The track
adds an additional

Making Straight Cuts
It is important to set the cutting depth of the saw,
which limits the amount of blade that is exposed
during the cutting operation.
4. Adjust depth stop so it contacts saw body,
then retighten lock knob. The saw blade will
now plunge only to that set point.
Straight cuts are made with the blade already
extended, with the cut beginning on one edge of
the workpiece and ending on the opposite side.
These cuts work well for cutting objects into sepa-
rate pieces and for straight-lining rough lumber.
To make basic straight cuts:
1. Set depth of cut (as described in Setting
Cutting Depth section on this page).
2. Position front of saw on workpiece, leav-
ing enough room for blade to fully extend
from bottom without coming into contact with
workpiece, as shown in
Figure 16.

workpiece for straight cut.
