Large sheets and long boards sag or bend,
depending on support. If you attempt to cut
without leveling and properly supporting the
piece, the wheel will tend to bind, causing KICK-
BACK and extra load on the motor (Fig. 11).
Support the panel or board close to the cut, as
shown in (Fig. 12). Be sure to set the depth of
the cut so that you cut through the sheet or
board only and not the table or work bench. The
two-by-fours used to raise and support the work
should be positioned so that the broadest sides
support the work and rest on the table or bench.
Do not support the work with the narrow sides
as this is an unsteady arrangement. If the sheet
or board to be cut is too large for a table or work
bench, use the supporting two-by-fours on the
floor and secure.

First, consider the desired height of the flush
cut. For flooring installation, add up the
thickness of your flooring adhesive, the flooring
itself, and any underlayments or other material
that will add to the thickness of the finished
floor.
1. Install the flush cutting wheel on the tool as
described in “Flush Cutting Wheel
Assembly”, page 10.
2. Adjust the depth of the wheel to the desired
depth setting.
3. Turn the tool on it’s side so that the flush cut
foot rests against the flooring.
4. Firmly grip the tool. Turn tool on and allow it
to come to full speed before entering
workpiece.
5. Complete your cut and remove the tool from
the workpiece before turning the tool off.
