Making Grooves/Concealed Cuts
Making Grooves/Concealed Cuts
Based on blade width and workpiece dimensions,
the saw can be programmed to make a series of
cuts to create a groove. Refer to Non-Through
Cuts on Page 47 for specific details on this type
of cut.
To make grooves/concealed cuts:
1.
Press Tool-Box key (see Figure 120), and
use F2 or F3 keys to scroll to dimensions
for blade to be used in operation. If blade
dimensions have not been entered, enter
them now (refer to Adding/Deleting Blade
Dimensions on Page 52).

IMPORTANT: Machine does NOT automati-
cally set blade height or tilt. This must be
done manually using blade controls on con-
trol panel. The purpose of entering groove
depth in this step is to ensure user has con-
sidered all variables before making a cut.
8.
Confirm blade width shown on line F5 (see
Figure 122) matches dimension chosen in
Step 1. System will determine number
cuts necessary to complete operation based
on this measurement.
Note: At this point, START key should be
illuminated, and number of cuts needed to
complete operation should be shown in lower
left-hand corner of screen.
9.
Press START key. Rip fence will move to
starting position.
10. Load workpiece onto table.
