If a blade is changed for any
reason, or if wear is suspected
since the last time depth stop was
set, you will need to re-set the
depth stop.
If a cut at a precise depth
is necessary, it is best to make a pre-
cut and MEASURE at deepest part
of cut to confirm cut is at desired depth.
NOTE
To Control the Depth of Cut with saw running and Blade Mounted:
Always adhere to manufacturer's blade speed
recommendations for Surface Feet Per Minute when
choosing a blade for your cutting conditions. See blade
size/speed information, "Blade RPM vs. Surface Feet Per
Minute (SFPM) on page 24.
