When cuttingcrown
molding by this method the bevel
angle should be sot at 33.85 °. The miter angle should
be sot at 31.62 ° either right or left, depending on the
desired cut for the application. See the chart below for
correct angle settings and correct positioning of crown
molding on miter table.
The settings in the chart below can be used for cutting
All Standard (U.S.) crown molding with 52 ° and 38 °
angles. The crown molding is placed flat on the miter
table using the compound features of your miter saw.

When cuffing warped material, always make sure it is
positioned on the miter table with the convex side
against the fence as shown in figure 33.
If the warped material is positioned the wrong way as
shown in figure 34, it will pinch the blade near the
completion of the cut.
WARNING: To avoid a kickback and to avoid
serious personal injury, never position the
concave edge of bowed or warped material
against the fence.
