Pre-scoring with the guide rail
To avoid tearing the surface of panel materials, use the pre-scoring function of the machine
when you work with guide rails. Here, the cutting depth is limited to 2.5 mm [0.1 in] and the
saw blade is minimally offset from the cutting line.
Use the following procedure to use the pre-
scoring function of the machine:
1.
Secure a guide rail on the workpiece.
2.
Position the machine with the guiding groove on
the guide rail.
3.
Rotate the notch for pre-scoring (3) clockwise
until it hits the stop.
