Unable to Change From Full Text View of posting on Main Page

I have been trying all after noon to get my main page blog listings to just show an excerpt or listing, but no matter what I do, it always shows the full text. I am new to the Suffusion theme, but have managed to get everything else to work correctly.

So far I have tried the following:
Set the main WordPress Reading Setting to Summary = No change
Altered the Suffusion Layouts - Front-Blog Page views settings to everything but Full content = No change

Please provide any information to assist in getting this setting to take effect.
My site is http://chadsgotdeals.com

Thanks in advance for your help.

What I have done is (in source mode) insert <!--more--> (including brackets) at the point where you want the excerpt to end. When you switch back to "View" mode it will still be visible even after you save it. However, it won't show on your front page excerpt or on the post page.
