When a new blade is installed, it may be necessary
to check the clearance of the blade to the turntable
structure. 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
1. When making normal full-depth cuts, push the
depth stop plate in toward the saw head (see
Figure 16). This will allow the depth stop screw 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 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 Figure 17).
3. Grip the main handle (item 3, page 8) 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.
See page 44 for "Cutting Grooves" instructions.
