Yes, I do, but it didn't contain any useful information in regards to
my problem.

Not sure, I am at work now and will investigate when I get home
tonight. Will report back tomorrow.

You didn't find the sections titled "Adjusting Depth of Groove" and "Fine
Adjustment" on page 7 to be useful?
Look again, specifically at those two sections -- particularly Figure 3 --
and also at Figure 12 on page 10. If you're cutting #20 slots with the turret
set at 10 or 0, the depth stop rod isn't hitting the stops on the turret that
it's supposed to hit. The rod is either maladjusted, broken, or missing.

So what turned out to be the problem? Was the screw missing, as Leon and I
suggested, or was it something else?

There was a screw missing alright, but it wasn't on the joiner. It is
working OK now. Not sure what I was doing wrong yesterday.

This should be straight forward simple. The turret is suppose to be stopped
by an adjustment screw when you plunge. This screw is mounted on the motor
housing plunge section directly behind the turret. That adjustment screw
should engage the turret at the different indexing positions on the back end
of the turret.
Perhaps the screw is missing.

I have sons in the computer business, who have to deal at times with tech
support.
They call it an 1d10t error.

It seems to me that the depth stop rod that's supposed to hit the stop on the
turret is either grossly maladjusted, broken, or missing altogether. Do you
have the owner's manual for it?
