CUTTING
CROWN MOULDING
One of the many features of your saw is the ease of
cutting crown moulding.The following is an example of
cutting both inside and outside corners on 52/38 degree
wall angle crown moulding. NOTE: When cutting 45 degree
wall angle crown moulding, the following procedure for
inside and outside corners is the same with the
exception that the bevel position will always be at 30
degrees and the miter position will be 35.25 degrees to
the right or left.
1. Move the table to the 31.6 degree right miter
position and lock the table in position. NOTE: A triangle
indicator is provided on the miter scale to find this angle
quickly (Fig. 38)
2. Tilt the saw blade to the 33.9 degree left bevel
position and tighten bevel lock handle. NOTE: A triangle
indicator is provided on the bevel scale to find this angle
quickly (Fig. 39).
3. Place the crown moulding on the table with the
CEILING EDGE of the moulding against the fence, and
make the cut (Fig. 38). NOTE: The piece of crown
moulding used for the outside corner will always be on
the right hand side of the blade (A) Fig. 38. The piece of
crown moulding used for the inside corner will always be
on the left hand side of the blade (B) Fig. 38.
4. To make the matching halves of the inside and
outside corners, rotate the table to the 31.6 degree left
miter position and tighten table lock handle. NOTE: A
triangle indicator is provided on the miter scale to find
this angle quickly (Fig. 39).
5. Place the crown moulding on the table with the
WALL EDGE of the crown moulding against the fence
and make the cut. Again, the piece of crown moulding
used for the outside corner will always be on the right
side of the blade (C) Fig. 39. The piece of crown
moulding used for the inside corner will always be on the
left side of the blade (D) Fig. 39.
6. Fig. 40 illustrates the two outside corner pieces - (A)
being the piece cut at (A) Fig. 38, and (C) being the piece
cut at (C) Fig. 39.
7. Fig. 41 illustrates the two inside corner pieces - (B)
being the piece cut at (B) Fig. 38, and (D) being the piece
cut at (D) Fig. 39.
