7 SIDED BOX
Set this bevel angle on saw
Example: To make a 4-sided box with 26° exterior angles (Angle A, Fig. S),
use the upper right arc. Find 26° on the arc scale. Follow the horizontal
intersecting line to either side to get mitre angle setting on saw (42°).
Likewise, follow the vertical intersecting line to the top or bottom to get the
bevel angle setting on the saw (18°). Always try cuts on a few scrap pieces
of wood to verify the settings on the saw.
Cutting Base Moulding (Fig. J, T)
To complete straight 90° cuts, position the wood against the fence and hold
it in place as shown in Figure T. Turn on the saw, allow the blade to reach full
speed and lower the arm smoothly through the cut.
Cutting Base Moulding from 76 mm up to 171 mm High
Vertically Against the Fence (Fig. J, T)
nOTE: Use the slide lock lever
59
moulding measuring from 76 mm to 171 mm high vertically against
the fence.
Position material as shown in Figure T.
All cuts should be made with the back of the moulding against the fence
and with the bottom of the moulding against the table.

Material up to 171 mm can be cut as described above.
Cutting Crown Moulding (Fig. A1, U1, U2)
Your mitre saw is well suited to the task of cutting crown moulding. In
order to fit properly, crown moulding must be compound mitred with
extreme accuracy.
Your mitre saw has special pre-set mitre latch points at 31.62° left and right
for cutting crown moulding at the proper angle and bevel stop pawls at
33.86° left and right. There is also a mark on the bevel scale
chart below gives the proper settings for cutting crown moulding.
nOTE: Pretesting with scrap material is extremely important!
Instructions for Cutting Crown Moulding Laying Flat and
Using the Compound Features (Fig. U1)
1. Moulding should lay flat with the broad back surface down on the
15
saw table .
2. Place the top of the moulding against the fence
3. The settings below are for 45° sprung crown moulding.

Alternative Method for Cutting Crown Moulding
Cutting crown moulding using this method does not require a bevel cut.
Minute changes in the mitre angle can be made without affecting the bevel
angle. When corners other than 90° are encountered, the saw can be quickly
and easily adjusted for them.
Instructions for Cutting Crown Moulding Angled Between
the Fence and Base of the Saw for All Cuts (Fig. U2)
1. Angle the moulding so the bottom of the moulding (the part which
goes against the wall when installed) is against the fence
top of the moulding is resting on the saw table
2. The angled "flats" on the back of the moulding must rest squarely on the
fence and saw table.

Special Cuts

WARNING: Never make any cut unless the material is secured
on the table and against the fence.
Aluminum Cutting (Fig. V1, V2)
ALWAYS USE THE APPROPRIATE SAW BLADE MADE ESPECIALLY FOR
CUTTING ALUMINUM.
Certain workpieces may require the use of a clamp or fixture to prevent
movement during the cut. Position the material so that you will be cutting
the thinnest cross section, as shown in Figure V1. Figure V2 illustrates the
wrong way to cut these extrusions.
Use a stick wax cutting lubricant when cutting aluminum. Apply the stick
44
wax directly to the saw blade
a moving blade. The wax provides proper lubrication and keeps chips from
adhering to the blade.
Bowed Material (Fig. W1, W2)
When cutting bowed material always position it as shown in Figure W1 and
never like that shown in Figure W2. Positioning the material incorrectly will
cause it to pinch the blade.
Cutting Plastic Pipe or Other Round Material
Plastic pipe can be easily cut with your saw. It should be cut just like wood
and CLAMPED OR HELD FIRMLY TO THE FENCE TO KEEP IT FROM
ROLLING. This is extremely important when making angle cuts.
Cutting Large Material (Fig. X)
Occasionally you will encounter a piece of wood a little too large to fit
beneath the lower guard. If this occurs, place your right thumb on the
