Depth=Of=Cut - Craftsman 5411.3 Manual Del Operador

DEPTH=OF=CUT ADJUSTMENT
Always use the correct blade-depth setting. The correct blade-depth setting for
all cuts should not be more than 1/4 in. below the material being cut. Allowing
more depth will increase the chance of kickback and cause the cut to be rough.
Your saw is equipped with a depth-of-cut scale that provides enhanced depth-
of-cut accuracy.

Depth Scale
Locate the depth scale on the
back of the upper blade guard.
Hold the base flat against the workpiece and raise or lower the saw until the indicator
aligns with the desired depth on the depth scale.
NOTICE: The depth scale may be tight; you can adjust the depth-of-cut
adjustment knob to loosen it. Take care not to make the depth-of-cut
adjustment knob too loose.
6. Tighten the depth-of-cut adjustment knob securely by turning it clockwise.
BEVEL ADJUSTMENTS
The angle of cut can be adjusted to any desired setting between 0°and 50 °.
Because blade thicknesses vary and different angles require different settings,
always make a trial cut in scrap material along a guideline to determine how
much you should offset the guideline on the workpiece to be cut.
