Flush cutting a door jamb and casing for
installing flooring
The oscillating
tool can be used
to flush cut a door
jamb and casing
to allow space for
the new flooring
to fit neatly under
the door jamb
and casing. For
the purpose of
demonstrating the
procedure, floor tile
is being used.
1. Install the plunge cutting wood saw blade for wood in the
tool.
Note: The blade should be centred on the tool housing and
NOT installed in the 90° position.
2. Place a scrap piece of floor tile (1) on the floor about 1/2"
(25 mm) from the door jamb (2).
Note: Make sure the "good" side of the tile is facing upward
to provide a smooth surface for the blade to follow.
