What happens here
With your safety gear on, kneel down and position the toe-kick saw on the floor against the baseboard on one side of the doorway. Ensure the saw's shoe plate is flat on the subfloor. Slowly engage the saw and carefully push it horizontally into the baseboard, guiding the blade along the wall. The saw is designed to cut parallel to the floor, allowing it to undercut the baseboard just above the subfloor. Continue pushing the saw until the cut reaches the door jamb or the corner of the wall. Maintain a steady hand and consistent pressure for a clean, straight cut.
Goal: Create the first horizontal cut in the baseboard
