Certain types of molding need a fence face exten-
sion because of the size and position of the work-
piece. Holes are provided in the fence to attach an
auxiliary fence. The auxiliary fence is used with the
saw in the 0° bevel position only.
1. Place a piece of wood against the miter saw fence
(Figure 24). (Wood can have a maximum height
of 4-1/2". Check that auxiliary fence assembly
does not interfere with head assembly.
For splinter-free cuts of molding, attach a one
piece wood auxiliary fence and then cut openings
with miter saw.
2. Mark the locations of the support holes on the
wood from the back side of the fence.
3. Drill and countersink the holes on the front of the
support board.
4. Attach (each) auxiliary fence using two (2)
3/16" flat head machine screws. With 3/4" auxil-
iary fence use 1-1/2" long screws. Secure behind
metal fence with washer and machine nuts.
Alternate: With 3/4" auxiliary fence, use 1/4"
round head screws wood screws (3/4" long). Drill
four (4) smaller (then 1/4" pilot holes through aux-
iliary fence and run screws through rear of metal
fence.
