FLUSH CUTTING A DOOR JAMB AND
CASING FOR INSTALLING FLOORING
The multi-function power tool can be used
to flush cut a door jamb and casing to
allow space for the new flooring to fit
neatly under the door jamb and casing. For
the purpose of demonstrating the
procedure, floor tile is being used.
1. Install the plunge cutting wood saw
blade for wood in the tool
(Fig. 2 Page 12 & 13).
NOTE: The blade should be centred on
the tool housing and NOT installed in the
90° position.
2. Place a scrap piece of floor tile (1) on
the floor about 1/2" (25 mm) from the
door jamb (2) (Fig. 6).
NOTE:
Make sure the “good” side of the
tile is facing upward to provide a smooth
surface for the blade to follow.
3. Place the tool with the saw blade (3)
lightly touching the surface of the tile
and the cutting teeth NOT touching
the surface to be cut.
4. Turn the tool ON (Fig. 5 Page 14).
5. When the tool reaches its maximum
set speed, carefully plunge the blade
into the door jamb (4) while sliding the
blade along the floor tile.
NOTE: Hold the tool tightly and do not put
too much forward pressure on the saw
blade when cutting, as this will cause the
tool to vibrate excessively.
