8-1. Confirmation of Saw Blade Lower Limit Position

The lower limit of the saw blade cutting depth is factory-adjusted so that when the saw blade is fully lowered, its
cutting edge is 9 to 11 mm (23/64" to 7/16") below the upper surface of the turn table in order to cut workpieces
completely without cutting the bottom of the turn table groove. Lower the saw blade and check that it stops at the
correct position (Fig. 26-a). When changing the position of the 8-mm depth adjustment bolt that is the lower limit
position stopper.
Change the position of the 8 mm depth adjustment bolt that is the lower limit position stopper according to the
following procedure.
(1) Make the tip of the 8 mm depth adjustment bolt contact with the hinge.
(2) Turn the 8 mm depth adjustment bolt with a 13-mm wrench to adjust the lower limit position of the saw blade
(Fig. 26-c).
CAUTION: Perform adjustment carefully to ensure that the saw blade does not cut into the turn table.
