GROOVE CUTTING
Your saw is equipped with a grooving stop and thumbscrew to allow for
groove cutting.
1. Firstly, determine the depth of
your groove, and subtract this
value from the thickness of your
workpiece. This will give you the
height above the table surface at
which the saw blade must be set.
2. Ideally, place a template or a
piece of wood, the same thickness as the saw blade height setting, on the
table, beneath the saw blade.
3. Pivot the groove plate to the side
position shown.
4. Undo the adjuster locking ring (2)
and screw out the adjuster (1),
then lower the head so that it
lightly touches the template or is
at the correct height as
determined using a rule.
5. Screw down the adjuster (1) so
that it touches the groove plate
(3), 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, by moving the
workpiece along the table in small increments, each time making a cut,
it is possible to cut grooves to any desired width.
• Angled grooves may be cut by tilting the head to the appropriate
angle.
6. Before reverting to normal cutting, remember to turn the groove plate to its
normal position as shown.
