LAYING MOLDING FLAT ON THE MITER TABLE
To use this method for accurately cutting crown
molding for a 90° inside or outside corner, lay
the molding with its broad back surface flat on
the miter table and against the fence.
When setting the bevel and miter angles for
compound miters, remember that the set-
tings are interdependent; changing one angle
changes the other angle as well.
Keep in mind that the angles for crown mold-
ings are very precise and difficult to set.

Since it is very easy for these angles to shift,
all settings should first be tested on scrap
molding. Also most walls do not have angles
of exactly 90°, therefore, you will need to fine
tune your settings.
When cutting crown molding by this method
the bevel angle should be set at 33.85°. The
miter angle should be set at 31.62° either right
or left, depending on the desired cut for the
application. See the chart below for correct
angle settings and correct positioning of crown
molding on miter table.
The settings in the chart above can be used
for cutting All Standard (U.S.) crown molding
with 52° and 38° angles. The crown molding is
placed flat on the miter table using the com-
pound features of the miter saw.
CUTTING WARPED MATERIAL
When cutting warped material, always make
sure it is positioned on the miter table with the
convex side against the fence.
If the warped material is positioned the wrong
way, it will pinch the blade near the comple-
tion of the cut.
