Cutting Grooves
• The depth stop adjustment is a feature used when
cutting grooves in the workpiece.
• The depth adjustment is used to limit blade depth to
cut grooves.
• A groove should be cut as a slide cut.
1. For major adjustments, press the depth stop
release button and slide the depth stop bolt to
the desired location (Figure 1).
2. For minor adjustments, simply rotate the depth
stop bolt to the desired location.
3. The upper jam nuts can be used to set a com-
monly used groove depth. To adjust, loosen the
upper jam nuts, move to desired location, and
tighten against each other.
4. Cut the two outside grooves.
5. Use a wood chisel or make multiple passes by
sliding the wood over to one side to remove the
material between the outside grooves (Figure 2).
Length Stop
Use only one length stop. Using
length stops on both sides of blade,
could trap workpiece and could cause workpiece to
be thrown.
The unit’s flip up length stop can be used when
making repetitive cuts of the same length.
To set the stop, simply unscrew the knob, flip the stop
into position and tighten the knob.
1. To set the cut length, unlock the base extension
clamping lever, reposition the base extension and
length stop, and relock the levers.
2. The maximum length that can be cut using the
length stop is approximately 18’.
If desired, the length stop and knob can be moved to
the left base extension. The optional MS1230 Length
Stop Kit can also be installed on the left side to pro-
vide stops on either side of the saw.
To increase the length that can be cut using the
length stop, replace the tool’s base extension rods
with the optional MS1229 Extra-Long Base Rod Kit,
which increases the maximum length that can be cut
using the length stop to approximately 25’ on either
side of the blade.
