Cutting Grooves
The depth stop adjustment is a feature used when cut-
ting 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 described 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 33 and rotate depth stop screw 32 (Fig. 55).
Rotating the depth stop screw clockwise 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 simulated cutting
cycle, and observe the projected path of the saw
blade. Keep hands at least six (6) inches (152mm)
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 work-
piece to the right or left. The saw must come to a
complete stop before moving workpiece.
