When making a compound cut
WARNING
on a molding lying flat on the
table, narrow cut-off pieces (2" or less in width)
may be propelled at high speed over the fence
and beyond the back of the tool (see figure 41).
Use auxiliary fence as instructed and shown in
figures below.
An auxiliary fence is used to add support to the cut-
off workpiece such as large crown molding when cut
flat on the table (see Figure 42). It will reduce splin-
tering and movement of the unsupported cut-off
piece of wood after the cut is made.
Making an Auxiliary fence:
Required pieces:
Wood Board (described below)
4 – Flat Head Machine Screws – 1/4" diameter;
2-1/2" long
4 – 1/4" Flat Washers
4 – Nuts
1. Cut a nominal 1" x 2" wood board to a length of
21-3/14" long. NOTE: 1 x 2" nominal equals
3/4" x 1-1/2" actual. 3/4" plywood cut to size may
be substituted.

Crown Molding Auxiliary fence
2. Drill four holes through the board using a 5/16"
Remove the sliding fences from the tool – see page
21.
1. Place the flat head screws through the holes in
2. Place the washers and nuts over the screw
NOTE: The first time the auxiliary fence is used, it
will be cut through by the saw blade – cutting
through creates minimal clearance which reduces
splintering on the workpiece. Set the miter angle
and the bevel angle required before making the first
cut. Clamp the workpiece, then make cut – example:
compound cutting large crown molding flat on the
table (see Figure 39).

Stationary Fence

diameter drill bit. Countersink the holes deep
enough so that the flat head screws will rest
below the front work surface – use a 1/2" diam-
eter drill bit (see Figure 43, 44 & 45).
