ADJUST CUTTING DEPTH – cont'd
NOTES:
a) The measurement markings on side of
the blade guard (6) can be used as a guide
in setting the depth of cut. The
measurement mark on the guard that
intersects with the edge of the blade
indicates roughly the depth of cut.
b) Always set the cutting depth 1/8" greater
than the thickness of the workpiece.
c) Always test the depth setting on a scrap
workpiece to verify the setting before
cutting into the good workpiece.
INSTALL EDGE GUIDE MOUNT
1.
Insert the edge guide dovetail (1) into
the matching slot (2) in the front of the
blade guard (see Fig 7a).
2.
Slide the edge guide mount toward the
right hand side of the blade guard until
the mounting screw (3) lines up with
the matching threaded hole (4) in the
blade guard.
3.
Carefully turn the mounting screw
clockwise into the threaded hole until it
holds the edge guide firmly in place.
