When setting bevel and miter angles for all compound
miters, remember that:
The angles presented for crown moldings are very
precise and difficult to set exactly. Since they can
easily shift slightly and very few rooms have
exactly square corners, all settings should be
tested on scrap molding.

ALTERNATIVE METHOD FOR CUTTING CROWN
MOLDING
Place the molding on the table at an angle between the
fence and the saw table, as shown in Figure 18A. Use of
the crown molding fence accessory (DW7084) is highly
recommended because of its degree of accuracy and
convenience. The crown molding fence accessory is
available for purchase from your local dealer.
The advantage to cutting crown molding using this method
is that no bevel cut is required. Minute changes in the miter
angle can be made without affecting the bevel angle. This
way, when corners other than 90 degrees are
encountered, the saw can be quickly and easily adjusted
for them. Use the crown molding fence accessory to
maintain the angle at which the molding will be on the wall.

which goes against the wall when installed) is against
the fence and the top of the molding is resting on the
base of the saw, as shown in Figure 18A.
2. The angled '_flats"on the back of the molding must rest
squarely on the fence and base of the saw.
