TS60 depth adjustment only to 61mm

[Theucroix]

Just got my TS60 and had my joy stolen when I realized the depth adjustment doesn't reach all the way to 62mm before reaching the bottom. Anyone with the same/similar problem and/or possible solutions?

i always thought that the second marker was for on a guiderail, so it plunges 61 mm deep while on a guiderail?

Yes, that is the FS marking by the arrow.

The manual says 62mm without guide rail, 57mm with the FS guide rail. See attached.

Doesn't that mean then by the look of the pic without the guide rail it's hitting 66mm or so DOC allowing for the 5mm FS?

Makita make a 170mm blade. Not sure if it will fit inside the ts60 saw or fits the arbour etc. Check before buying. But that will give you 1mm more depth of cut if it does fit.

It looks like it's already exceeding the max 62mm DOC the op was concerned it wasn't reaching, by 4mm judging by the pic.

Checking the videos from their official channel it looks like the fs mark should go all the way to 62.

The videos in their official show the fs mark on 62mm. I wonder if that's just poor quality control from their part and if I should ask for a replacement.
