When cutting crown molding by this method the bevel angle should
be set at 33.9°. The mitre angle should be set at 31.6° 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 mitre table.
The settings in the chart below can be used for cutting crown molding
with 52° and 38° angles or 45° and 45° angles. The crown molding is
placed flat on the mitre table using the compound features of the
product.

CUTTING NESTED CROWN MOLDING USING CROWN STOPS
(Crown stops not included)
See figure 38.
Crown stops may be purchased as an accessory to this saw for use in
cutting crown molding in a nested position and should be installed on
both the right and left side.
To attach the crown stops to the extension table:
Position a crown stop on the right extension table.
Insert the threaded crown stop lock knob through the long slot in
the crown stop and into Hole A as shown, but do not fully tighten
to allow for adjustment of the crown stop.
Set the top of the piece of crown molding on the table. Position
the spring angles so that the bottom angle is flat on the table and
the top angle is flush against the mitre fence.
Tighten the lock knob securely before making the cut.
NOTE: Hole B is used for extended mitre cuts when the rotating
extension table is in the farthest outboard position.
Repeat steps for the left side.
CROWN AND BASEBOARD SETTING LEVER
See figure 39.
The crown and baseboard setting lever is helpful when making mitre
cuts up to 45° for tall crown molding and vertical baseboard.
Use the crown setting for tall crown molding of 120 mm and taller.
NOTE: For cutting crown molding less than 120 mm tall, slide the saw
head to the rear most position with the crown and baseboard setting
lever in the down position.
To position for tall crown molding:
Unplug the saw.
Loosen the slide lock knob and pull the saw head forward.
Flip the crown and baseboard setting lever up.
