Alternative Method for Cutting Crown Moulding
Cutting crown moulding using this method does not require a bevel cut.
Minute changes in the mitre angle can be made without affecting the
bevel angle. When corners other than 90° are encountered, the saw can be
quickly and easily adjusted for them.
Instructions for Cutting Crown Moulding Angled Between
the Fence and Base of the Saw for All Cuts (Fig. V2)
1. Angle the moulding so the bottom of the moulding (the part which
goes against the wall when installed) is against the fence
top of the moulding is resting on the saw table
2. The angled "flats" on the back of the moulding must rest squarely on
the fence and saw table.

Special Cuts


WARNING: Never make any cut unless the material is secured
on the table and against the fence.
Aluminum Cutting (Fig. W1, W2)
ALWAYS USE THE APPROPRIATE SAW BLADE MADE ESPECIALLY FOR
CUTTING ALUMINUM.
Certain workpieces may require the use of a clamp or fixture to prevent
movement during the cut. Position the material so that you will be cutting
the thinnest cross section, as shown in Figure W1. Figure W2 illustrates the
wrong way to cut these extrusions.
Use a stick wax cutting lubricant when cutting aluminum. Apply the stick
wax directly to the saw blade before cutting. Never apply stick wax to
46
a moving blade. The wax provides proper lubrication and keeps chips from
adhering to the blade.
Bowed Material (Fig. X1, X2)
When cutting bowed material always position it as shown in Figure X1 and
never like that shown in Figure X2. Positioning the material incorrectly will
cause it to pinch the blade.
Cutting Plastic Pipe or Other Round Material
Plastic pipe can be easily cut with your saw. It should be cut just like
wood and CLAMPED OR HELD FIRMLY TO THE FENCE TO KEEP IT FROM
ROLLING. This is extremely important when making angle cuts.
Cutting Large Material (Fig. Y)
Occasionally you will encounter a piece of wood a little too large to fit
beneath the lower guard. If this occurs, place your right thumb on the

upper side of the guard and roll the guard up just enough to clear the

workpiece, as shown in Figure Y. Avoid doing this as much as possible, but
if need be, the saw will operate properly and make the bigger cut. NEVER
TIE, TAPE, OR OTHERWISE HOLD THE GUARD OPEN WHEN OPERATING
THIS SAW.

MAINTENANCE

Your power tool has been designed to operate over a long period of
time with a minimum of maintenance. Continuous satisfactory operation
depends upon proper tool care and regular cleaning.

WARNING:To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn
tool off and disconnect battery pack before making any
adjustments or removing/installing attachments or accessories.
An accidental start-up can cause injury.
The charger and battery pack are not serviceable.
Lubrication
Your power tool requires no additional lubrication.
Cleaning

WARNING: Blow dirt and dust out of the main housing with dry air
as often as dirt is seen collecting in and around the air vents. Wear
approved eye protection and approved dust mask when performing
this procedure.

WARNING: Never use solvents or other harsh chemicals for cleaning
the non-metallic parts of the tool. These chemicals may weaken the
materials used in these parts. Use a cloth dampened only with water
and mild soap. Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never immerse
any part of the tool into a liquid.
Before use, carefully check the upper guard, lower guard and dust duct
to determine that they will operate properly. Ensure that chips, dust or
workpiece particles do not block of one of the functions.
In case of workpiece fragments jammed between the saw blade and
guards, remove the battery pack from the machine and follow the
instructions given in Changing or Installing a New Saw Blade. Remove
the jammed parts and reassemble the saw blade.
Periodically clean all dust and wood chips from around AND UNDER the
base and the rotary table.
Worklight Cleaning
• Carefully clean sawdust and debris from worklight lens with a cotton
swab. Dust build-up can block the worklight and prevent it from
accurately indicating the line of cut.
• DO NOT use solvents of any kind; they may damage the lens.
• With blade removed from saw, clean pitch and build-up from blade.
Dust Duct Cleaning
With the saw unplugged and the saw head raised fully, low pressure air or a
large diameter dowel rod can be used to clear the dust out of the dust duct.
