ADJUSTING THE DEPTH OF CUT(FIGURE F, F1 & G)
The depth of cut should be set according to the thickness of the workpiece.
• Loosen the lever (11) to unlock the saw shoe (figures F & F1).
• Move the saw shoe (5) into the desired
position. The corresponding depth of cut
can be read from the scale (12).
• Tighten the lever to lock the saw shoe in
place.
• Set depth adjustment of saw such that one
half of a tooth of the blade projects below
the workpiece as shown in figure G.
Setting the saw at the proper cutting depth
keeps blade friction to a minimum, removes
sawdust from between the blade teeth,
results in cooler, faster sawing and reduces
the chance of kickback.
