DEPTH
OF CUT ADJUSTMENT
Always keep correct blade depth setting. The correct
blade depth setting for all cuts should not exceed 1/4 inch
below the material to be cut. More blade depth will
increase the chance of kickback and cause the cut to be
rough. One blade tooth below the material to be cut works
best for most efficient cutting action.
