the base. Loosen the knob. Turn the scale ring until the bit just touches the flat
surface. Tighten the knob. Place the tool on its side and turn the scale ring
counterclockwise (when viewing the tool from the top) until the desired depth
of cut is obtained. One full turn of the scale ring is equal to 5 mm change in
depth setting. Loosen the knob and move the tool base until it makes contact
with the scale ring. Then tighten the knob securely.

CAUTION:
• Since excessive cutting may cause overload of the motor or difficulty in
controlling the tool, the depth of cut should not be more than 15 mm at a
pass when cutting grooves. When you wish to cut grooves more than
15 mm deep, make several passes with progressively deeper bit settings.
