LIMITING THE DEPTH OF CUT (GROOVE CUTTING)
1. Subtract the depth of your groove
from the thickness of your
workpiece.
• This will give you the height
above the table surface at
which the saw blade must be
set.
• For example if you want a 6 mm deep groove in a 18 mm thick piece of
wood, you need a saw blade height of 12 mm (18 mm - 6 mm).
2. Put a template or a piece of wood, the same thickness as the saw blade
height setting, on the table, below the saw blade.
• As an example a piece of wood 12 mm thick.
3. Lower the head until it lightly touches the template.
4. Loosen the locking ring (2) if
required, screw down the adjuster
(1) until it touches the ledge, then
finally tighten the locking ring (2).
• The saw blade is now set to cut
your groove, using the sliding
feature.
• The width of the groove will, of
course, be the width of the saw
blade. However, if you move
the workpiece along the table in small increments, it is possible to cut
grooves to any width.
5. Before reverting to normal cutting, remember to reset the position of the
adjuster to its normal position.
