Cutting method of crown molding without tilting the saw blade
(1) Crown molding stoppers (L) and (R) (optional accessories) allow easier cuts of crown molding without tilting
the saw blade. Install them to both sides of the base as shown in Fig. 22. After inserting, tighten the 6 mm
knob bolts to secure the crown molding guides.

(2) The crown molding vise ass'y (optional accessory) can be mounted on either the left fence (fence (B)) or the
right fence (fence (A)). It can unite with the slope of the crown molding and vise can be pressed down. Then
turn the upper knob, as necessary, to securely attach the crown molding in position. To raise or lower the vise
assembly, first loosen the 6 mm knob bolt.

After adjusting the height, firmly tighten the 6 mm wing bolt; then turn the upper knob, as necessary, to
securely attach the crown molding in position. (See Fig. 23.)
WARNING: Always firmly clamp or vise to secure the crown molding to the fence; otherwise the
crown molding might be thrust from the table and cause bodily harm. Do not perform
bevel cutting. The main body or saw blade may contact the sub fence, resulting in an
injury.
CAUTION: Always confirm that the motor head does not contact the crown molding vise ass'y
when it is lowered for cutting. If there is any danger that it may do so, loosen the 6 mm
knob bolt and move the crown molding vise ass'y to a position where it will not contact
the saw blade.
Position crown molding with its WALL CONTACT EDGE against the guide fence and its CEILING CONTACT
EDGE against crown molding stoppers as shown in Fig. 23. Adjust the crown molding stoppers according to
the size of the crown molding. Tighten the 6 mm wing bolt to secure the crown molding stoppers.
