11. Groove cutting procedures
Cut grooves with saw blade
6 mm depth adjustment bolt
Hinge
Turntable
Grooves in the workpiece can be cut as indicated in
Fig. 44 by adjusting the 6 mm depth adjustment bolt.
Cutting depth adjustment procedure:
(1) Lower the motor head, and turn the 6 mm depth
adjustment bolt by hand shown in Fig. 45. (Where the
head of the 6 mm depth adjustment bolt contacts the
hinge.)

(2) Adjust to the desired cutting depth by setting the
distance between the saw blade and the surface of
the turntable (see ⓑ in Fig. 44).
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 inefficient cutting and possible overload of the
motor. When cutting such materials, use a wood plate
to protect the workpiece as shown in Fig. 46-a. Set
the wood plate near the cutting section.
Fence
When cutting aluminum materials, coat the saw blade with
cutting oil (non-combustible) to achieve smooth cutting
and a fine finish. In addition, in case of a U-shaped
workpiece, use the wood plate as shown in Fig. 46-b 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.
