Hi John fs on the saw means is the size you use for the track hope this helps

Yep - you're just using the wrong scale, plus you want to cut through ~1mm.

I'm pretty sure the ts has a fine adjustment screw on the depth stop. So with the saw sat on the track and the depth stop at 0 on the F scale plunge the saw down and turn the fine adjustment screw in or out so the teeth of the saw are just tickling the surface. I'm pretty sure it's something like that on my mates ts
