Cutting Crown Molding
• Crown molding must be cuts must be positioned
properly to fit exactly.
• There are two ways to cut crown molding: fiat on
table or angled to table and fence.
• Crown molding's "spring angle" is the angle be-
tween the back of the molding and the bottom fiat
surface that fits against the wall.
• This miter saw has special miter detents at
31.6 ° and bevel detents at 33.9 °. These
detents allow you to easily position most crown
moldings fiat on the table and make precise cuts
for 90° corners. (These detents are only for use
with crown moldings that have a 38 ° "spring
angle".) NOTE: These detents cannot be
used with 45 ° crown molding.
• See also pages 29 & 30 for miter and bevel angle
charts for cutting crown moldings that have 38 °
and 45° spring angles (and the material is laid fiat
on the miter saw base). Each chart lists the exact
miter and bevel settings required for a wide
range of corner angles.
• Even though these angles are standards, most
rooms do not have angles of exactly 90 °, there-
fore, you will need to fine tune your settings.
The optional Bosch DAF220K MiterFinder
Digital Anglefinder/Protractor measures spring
angles and corner angles, then automatically de-
termines the exact miter and bevel settings
necessary to make each crown molding cut fit
perfectly.
