Certain types of molding need a fence-face
extension because of the size and position of
the workpiece.
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. Use a ¾" thick piece of wood (plywood is
preferred) to cut an auxiliary fence based
on the dimensions shown in Fig. 29a.
2. Place the auxiliary fence against the miter
saw fence (Fig. 29b). Check that the
auxiliary fence does not interfere with the
head assembly. Check for interference
between the auxiliary fence and the lower
blade guard. Adjust as necessary.
