Example:
In the case of cutting 52/38° type crown
molding for position (1) in Fig. A:
Tilt and secure bevel angle setting to
•
33.9° RIGHT.
Adjust and secure miter angle setting to
•
31.6° RIGHT.
Lay crown molding with its broad back
•
(hidden) surface down on the turn base
with its WALL CONTACT EDGE against
the guide fence on the saw.
The finished piece to be used will
•
always be on the RIGHT side of the
blade after the cut has been made.
7. Cutting aluminum extrusion
001844
When securing aluminum extrusions, use spacer
blocks or pieces of scrap as shown in the figure to
prevent deformation of the aluminum. Use a cutting
lubricant when cutting the aluminum extrusion to
prevent build-up of the aluminum material on the
blade.
CAUTION:
Never attempt to cut thick or round aluminum
•
extrusions. Thick aluminum extrusions may come
loose during operation and round aluminum
extrusions cannot be secured firmly with this tool.
8. Wood facing
Use of wood facing helps to assure splinter-free
cuts in workpieces. Attach a wood facing to the
guide fence using the holes in the guide fence.

CAUTION:
Use straight wood of even thickness as the wood

facing.
Use screws to attach the wood facing to the guide
•
fence. The screws should be installed so that the
screw heads are below the surface of the wood
facing.
When the wood facing is attached, do not turn the
•
turn base with the handle lowered. The blade
and/or the wood facing will be damaged.
9. Cutting repetitive lengths
3
001846
When cutting several pieces of stock to the same
length, ranging from 220 mm to 385 mm, use of the
set plate (optional accessory) will facilitate more
efficient operation. Install the set plate on the holder
(optional accessory) as shown in the figure.
Align the cutting line on your workpiece with either
the left or right side of the groove in the kerf board,
and while holding the workpiece from moving,
move the set plate flush against the end of the
workpiece. Then secure the set plate with the screw.
When the set plate is not used, loosen the screw
and turn the set plate out of the way.
NOTE:
Use of the
•
accessory) allows cutting repetitive lengths up to
2,200 mm approximately.
