OPERATION
 Tighten the fence screws to secure the fences in place.
 Set the bevel angle at 0° and the miter angle at 45° to
either the left or the right.
 Nest and secure the crown molding against the back of
a sliding miter fence, as shown in figures 35 and 36.
 Position the crown molding in place by using the work
clamp as a material stop.
 Tighten the knob on the work clamp until it rests lightly
against the edge of the molding. Do not overtighten as
this may move the material causing misalignment.
 Hold the workpiece as shown in figure 35 with your hand
on the outside of the sliding miter fence.
 Before turning on the saw, perform a dry run of the cut-
ting operation to make sure that no problems will occur
when the cut is made.
 Grasp the saw handle firmly. Squeeze the switch trigger.
Allow several seconds for the blade to reach maximum
speed.
 Slowly lower the blade into and through the crown mold-
ing.
 Release the switch trigger and allow the saw blade to
stop rotating before raising the blade out of the crown
molding and removing the crown molding from the miter
table.
To install the sliding miter fences in their normal operat-
ing position:
 Loosen the fence screw and slide the miter fences toward
the saw arm until they stop.
NOTE: The fixed screws prevent the sliding miter fences
from sliding too close to the saw arm and possibly inter-
fering with the movement of the blade. Do not remove
fixed screws.
 Remove the sliding miter fences by pulling them up and
away from the miter table.
 Place the left sliding miter fence on the left side of the
tool and the right sliding miter fence on the right side with
both fences facing the front of the tool.
 Install the miter fences by aligning the large slot in the
fences with the fence screw on the saw and pushing
down.
 Tighten the fence screws to secure the fences in place.
