Basic Saw Operations (continued)
Cutting Crown Molding Angles to the Table and
Fence
The advantage of cutting crown molding in this position is
that no bevel setting is required. Small changes in the
miter angle can be made without affecting the bevel
angle. When using this method the saw can be quickly
and easily adjusted for corners that are not 90° (square).
1. Position the molding upside down so the bottom (part
which is installed against the wall) is against the fence.
Building a crown molding support jig:
Use small nails and glue to attach a top piece (typically
1/2 inch thick by 1-1/2 inches wide by 19-1/4 inches
long) to the fence as shown. NOTE: Make sure saw-
blade will not strike nails. This top piece will help sup-
port the molding at the correct cutting position.
2. Use the chart to set the miter gauge. Tighten the miter
lock knob.
3. Lower the head assembly, activate the switch and
make the cut. Wait until the blade comes to a complete
stop before allowing the head assembly to return to the
"UP" position and/or removing the workpiece.

Using Carbide Tipped Blades

WARNING: To avoid the risk of cutting tool failure
and thrown shrapnel (broken pieces of blade) read
and understand all the warnings and instructions
which come with carbide tipped blades. Failure to
heed all carbide tipped blade warnings and safety
instructions can result in serious injury.
Carbide is a very hard but brittle material. Take care
when mounting, using and storing carbide blades to pre-
vent accidental damage. Slight shocks, such as striking a
tip during handling, can seriously damage the blade. For-
eign objects in the workpiece, such as wire or nails, can

Maintenance and Lubrication

DANGER: Never put lubricants on the blade while
it's spinning.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury from unex-
pected starting or electrical shock, unplug the
power cord before working on the saw.

also cause tips to crack or break off.
Before using a carbide tipped blade, always examine the
blade and tips for damage. Look for bent teeth, a bent
blade, cracks, broken, missing or loose carbide tips. Do
not use a carbide tipped blade if damage is found or sus-
pected.
Do not use a carbide tipped blade without all appropriate
guards in place.
Mount blade securely in proper rotation direction.
Never rotate a carbide tipped blade faster than its maxi-
mum recommended speed.
WARNING: For your safety, this saw is double
insulated. To reduce the risk of electrical shock,
fire or injury, use only parts identical to those iden-
tified in the parts list reassemble exactly as origi-
nal assembly to reduce the risk of electrical
hazards.

Replacing Carbon Brushes

The carbon brushes furnished will last approximately 50
hours of running time or 10,000 on/off cycles. Replace
both carbon brushes when either brush has less than 1/4"
