CUTTING CROWN MOLDING
One of the many features of the saw is the ease of
cutting crown molding. The following is an example of
cutting both inside and outside corners on
52°/38°
wall
angle crown molding.
1. Move the table to the 31.62° right miter position and
lock the table in position.
NOTE:
A positive stop is
provided to find this angle quickly.
2. Tilt the saw blade to the 33.86° left bevel position
and tighten bevel lock handle.
NOTE:
A triangle
indicator is provided on the bevel scale to find this
angle quickly.
3. Place the crown molding on the table with the
CEILING EDGE
of the molding against the fence,
and make the cut, as shown in Fig. 35.
NOTE:
The piece of crown molding used for the
outside corner will always be on the right hand side
of the blade, as shown at (A) Fig. 35. The piece of
crown molding used for the inside corner will always
be on the left hand side of the blade, as shown at
(B) Fig. 35.
4. To make the matching halves of the inside and
outside corners, rotate the table to the 31.62° left
miter position.
NOTE:
A positive stop is provided to find this angle
quickly. The saw blade is already tilted to the 33.86°
bevel position from the previous cut.
5. Place the crown molding on the table with the
WALL EDGE
of the crown molding against the
fence and make the cut. Again, the piece of crown
molding used for the outside corner will always be
on the right side of the blade, as shown at (C) Fig.
36. The piece of crown molding used for the inside
corner will always be on the left side of the blade, as
shown at (D) Fig. 36.
6. Fig. 36A illustrates the two outside corner pieces; (1)
being the piece cut at (A) Fig. 35 and (2) being the
piece cut at (C) Fig. 36.
7. Fig. 36B illustrates the two inside corner pieces; (1)
being the piece cut at (B) Fig. 35, and (2) being the
piece cut at (D) Fig. 36.
45-45 CROWN MOLDING
NOTE:
If you are cutting crown molding that is
45°-45°
, follow the same procedure above, with the
exception that the bevel position will always be at 30°
and the miter position will be 35-1/4° to the right or left.
