Grooves in the workpiece can be cut as indicated in Fig. 46 by adjusting the 8mm depth adjustment bolt.
Cutting depth adjustment procedure:
(1) Loosen the 8mm wing nut and turn the 8mm depth adjustment bolt by hand.
(2) Adjust to the desired cutting depth by setting the distance between the saw blade and the surface of the
base (see in Fig. 46).
(3) The 8mm wing nut must be properly tightened after the adjustment has been completed.
NOTE: When cutting a single groove at either end of the workpiece, remove the unneeded portion
with a chisel.
12. Cutting easily-deformed materials, such as aluminum sash
Materials such as aluminum sash can easily deform when tightened too much in a vise assembly. This will
cause ineffi cient cutting and possible overload of the motor.
When cutting such materials, use a wood plate to protect the workpiece as shown in Fig. 48. Set the wood
plate near the cutting section.
When cutting aluminum materials, coat the saw blade with cutting oil (non-combustible) to achieve smooth
cutting and a fi ne fi nish.
In addition, in case of a U-shaped workpiece, use the wood plate as shown in Fig. 49 to ensure stability in
the lateral direction, and clamp it near the cutting section of the workpiece and tighten it using both the vise
assembly and the clamp available in the market.

13. How to use the dust bag (Standard accessory)
(1) When the dust bag has become full of sawdust, dust will be blown out of the
dust bag when the saw blade rotates.
Check the dust bag periodically and empty it before it becomes full.
(2) During bevel and compound cutting, attach the dust bag at a right angle to
the base surface as shown in Fig. 50.
CAUTION: Empty the dust bag frequently to prevent the duct and the lower guard from becoming
clogged.
Sawdust will accumulate more quickly than normal during bevel cutting.
