ADJUSTING CUTTING DEPTH
(FIG. T)

cutting head was set at the factory.
Check to see that the blade does not
extend more than 1/4 in. below the
table insert, and does not touch the
control arm throat or any part of the
base or table. If the maximum depth
needs readjusting:
1. Loosen the stop knob (1) while
moving the cutting head down until
the blade extends just 1/4 in. below
the table insert.
2. Adjust the stop knob (1) to touch
the stop plate (2).
3. Recheck the blade depth by
moving the cutting head front to
back through the full motion of a cut
along the control arm. If the blade
touches the inside of the control
arm, readjust the setting.

3. Loosen the two fence locking bolts
(1) with a 6mm hex wrench.
4. Adjust the fence 90° to the blade

been used recently, recheck
blade squareness to the fence
and readjust if needed.
5. After fence has been aligned, using
a scrap piece of wood, make a cut

SETTING CUTTING DEPTH (FIG. T)
The depth of cut can be preset for even
and repetitive shallow cuts.

teeth of the blade are at the desired
depth.
2. While holding the upper arm in that
position, turn the stop knob (1) until
it touches the stop plate (2).
3. Recheck the blade depth by moving
the cutting head front to back
through the full motion of a typical
cut along the control arm.
