CAUTION:

• Always be sure that the blade will move down to

bevel direction during a bevel cut. Keep hands out

of path of saw blade.

• During a bevel cut, it may create a condition

whereby the piece cut off will come to rest against

the side of the blade. If the blade is raised while the

blade is still rotating, this piece may be caught by

the blade, causing fragments to be scattered which

is dangerous. The blade should be raised ONLY

after the blade has come to a complete stop.

• When pressing the handle down, apply pressure

parallel to the blade. If the pressure is not parallel to

the blade during a cut, the angle of the blade might

be shifted and the precision of the cut will be

impaired.

5. Compound cutting

Compound cutting is the process in which a bevel

angle is made at the same time in which a miter

angle is being cut on a workpiece. Compound cut-

ting can be performed at angle shown in the table.

When performing compound cutting, refer to “Press

cutting”, “Slide cutting”, “Miter cutting” and “Bevel

cut” explanations.

6. Cutting crown and cove moldings

Crown and cove moldings can be cut on a com-

pound miter saw with the moldings laid flat on the

turn base.

There are two common types of crown moldings

and one type of cove moldings; 52/38° wall angle

crown molding, 45° wall angle crown molding and

45° wall angle cove molding. See illustrations.

There are crown and cove molding joints which are

made to fit “Inside” 90° corners ((1) and (2) in Fig.

A) and “Outside” 90° corners ((3) and (4) in Fig. A).

Measuring

Measure the wall length and adjust workpiece on

table to cut wall contact edge to desired length.

Always make sure that cut workpiece length at the

back of the workpiece is the same as wall length.

Adjust cut length for angle of cut. Always use sev-

eral pieces for test cuts to check the saw angles.

When cutting crown and cove moldings, set the

bevel angle and miter angle as indicated in the

table (A) and position the moldings on the top sur-

face of the saw base as indicated in the table (B).
