Changes to cutter depth can be read on the depth
scale on the motor housing. Each mark on the scale
indicates a 1.6mm (1/16") change in depth setting.
Use the bottom edge of the removable base as
reference when setting depth of cut. To make
deeper cuts, make successive passes as required,
lowering the bit 3.1 mm (1/8") for each pass.
The plunge base depth of cut can be set two ways;
for single pass cuts (shallow cuts less than 3.1mm
(1/8")), or for multiple pass cuts.
