Saw Operations
Cutting Grooves
The depth stop adjustment is a feature used
when cutting grooves in the workpiece.
The depth adjustment is used to limit blade
depth to cut grooves.
NOTE: Read and understand all instructions on
page 22 in the Adjustments section on “Setting
Blade Depth for Non-Through Cuts for Cutting
Grooves.”
NOTE: For best results, Bosch recommends the
use of a table saw with an optional dado blade
set for cutting grooves and non-through cuts. In
the event this is not available, the feature de-
scribed below is a convenient alternative.
A groove should be cut as a slide cut.
1. For adjustment of groove depth, pull out
depth stop plate and rotate depth stop
screw. Rotating the depth stop screw clock-
wise will raise saw blade and rotating the
screw counterclockwise will lower the
blade.
2. For minor adjustments, simply rotate the
depth stop screw to the desired location.
Be aware of the path of
the saw blade. Make a dry
run with the saw Off by conducting a simu-
lated cutting cycle, and observe the projected
path of the saw blade. Keep hands at least six
(6) inches away from the projected path of
the saw blade.
3. Cut the two outside grooves first.
4. After cutting a groove, shut saw “OFF” and
wait for blade to stop.
5. To remove material between cuts, move the
workpiece to the right or left. The saw must
come to a complete stop before moving
workpiece.
