Depth of Cut Adjustment
When a new blade is installed, it may be necessary to
check the clearance of the blade to the turntable struc-
ture. The depth stop plate is a feature provided to allow
for (normal) full-depth cuts or non-through cuts used
to cut grooves.
SETTING BLADE DEPTH FOR NORMAL FULL-
DEPTH CUTS
1. When making normal full-depth cuts, push the depth
stop plate 33 in toward the saw head (see Fig. 13).
This will allow the depth stop screw 32 to pass
through the hole in the plate.
2. Check for full depth of cut:
- Set table at 0° miter and push saw fully back.
- Pull out head assembly lock pin 43 to the release
position.
- Push down saw head and watch the depth stop
screw pass through the stop plate without any
binding or contact with the plate.
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.
1. Release (pull out) the head asembly lock pin and
allow the saw head to move fully up. Slide saw head
to the full back position.
2. Pull the depth stop plate out away from the saw head
(see Fig. 14).
3. Grip the main handle (item 3 – page 12) and push
down the saw head while watching the depth stop
screw contact the top surface of the depth stop
plate. The screw will not pass through the hole in the
plate.
4. Turn the knob at the end of the depth stop screw
(while the threaded end is in contact with stop plate)
and watch the bottom of the saw blade move. This
adjustment sets the depth of cut.
