Depth Stop - Ryobi EMS2305SCL Owner's Operating Manual

EMS2305SCL MANUAL 29/4/05
Use of the depth stop feature means that the blade will not cut completely
through the work piece depending on the depth that it is set to. This allows the
operator to cut slots out of the work piece if used in conjunction with the sliding
function of the saw.
NOTE: It is advisable that the depth of cut is checked using a scrap piece to tim-
ber prior to undertaking this operation on the workpiece.
By making a cut in the work piece and then slightly moving the work piece to the
left or right before repeating, it is possible to perform trenching cuts or dados in
the work piece.
NOTE: It may be necessary to occassionally clean the pitches of the depth
adjustment screw using a sharp chisel or by sanding.
To use the depth stop feature follow these steps:
• Loosen the wing nut.
• Adjust the thumb knob to the required depth.
• Once set to the desired depth, tighten the wing nut against the retaining
bracket to lock the depth stop and ensure that there is no movement.
