Crown Molding Angled to Table and fence

The preferred method for cutting crown molding with this
saw is with the molding lying flat on the table. The
advantage to cutting molding angled against fence is
that no bevel setting is required, only the miter angle is
adjusted.
The maximum crown molding width that can be cut and
angled to table and fence is 3-1/2" at a 38 spring angle.
When cutting crown molding in this fashion it is
recommended to purchase and use the optional Crown
Stop Set (see page 44).
follow these instructions for cutting
crown molding angled to table and fence:
1. Position the molding so the bottom (decorative part,
which is installed against the wall) is against the
fence, figure 46.
2. For 90° corner, set the miter angle using chart below.
Tighten the miter lock knob.
3. Support crown molding against the fence (see "Body
and Hand Position" on page 24.)
WARNING
Off by conducting a simulated cutting cycle, and
observe the projected path of the saw blade. Keep
hands at least six (6) inches away from the projected
path of the saw blade.
Saw Operations
Be aware of the path of the saw
blade. Make a dry run with the saw
