• As some splintering along the line of
cut on the top side of the workpiece
cannot be avoided, cut on the side
where splintering is acceptable.
• Where splintering is to be minimized,
e.g. when cutting laminates, clamp a
piece of plywood onto the top of the
workpiece.
POCkET CuTTiNg (fig.11)
wARNiNg: Never tie the blade guard
in a raised position. Never move the saw
backwards when pocket cutting. This
may cause the unit to raise up off the
work surface which could cause injury.
A pocket cut is one that is made in a
floor, wall, or other flat surface.
• Adjust the saw foot plate so the blade
cuts at desired depth.
