OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
24. Grooves
The cutting depth adjustment is a feature used 
when cutting grooves in the work piece. The depth 
control knob (F) is used to limit the blade depth. A 
groove should be cut as a slide cut. 
Always make a practice cut on scrap wood before 
cutting the work piece.
a.  Remove the battery pack from the saw.
b.  With the depth-control knob (F) touching the 
depth stop, rotate the depth control knob to the 
desired cutting depth.
c.  Space the work piece away from the fence with 
a wooden spacer approximately 1-1/2 in. thick. 
This will allow for a complete groove to be cut. 
Be sure the work piece is fully supported.
d.  Attach the battery pack to the saw. 
e.  Cut the two outside edges of the groove.
f.  To create the groove, use a wood chisel or 
make multiple passes with a router to remove 
the material between the outside edges.
