Crown Molding Auxiliary Fence
When making a compound cut on a
molding lying flat on the table, nar-
row cut-off pieces, 2" (50mm) or less in width, may be
propelled at high speed over the fence and beyond the
back of the tool (Fig. 56). Use auxiliary fence (Fig. 57) as
instructed below.

An auxiliary fence (Fig. 57) is used to add support to the cut-
off workpiece such as large crown molding when cut flat on
the table (Fig. 56, 22). It will reduce splintering and move-
ment of the unsupported cut-off piece of wood after the cut
is made.
Saw Operations
Making an Auxiliary Fence
Required pieces:
• Wood Board (described below)
• 4 – Flat Head Machine Screws – 1/4" diameter (M6);
2-1/2" (65mm) long
• 4 – 1/4" (M6) Flat Washers
• 4 – Nuts
To make an auxiliary fence:
1. Cut a nominal 1" x 2" wood board to a length of 22-1/2"
(572mm) long.
NOTE: 1" x 2" nominal equals 3/4" x 1-1/2" (19x38mm)
actual. 3/4" (19mm) plywood cut to size may be substi-
tuted.
2. Drill four holes through the board using a 5/16" (8mm)
diameter drill bit. Countersink the holes deep enough so
that the flat head screws will rest below the front work
surface – use a 1/2" (13mm) diameter drill bit (Fig. 58).

3. Remove the saw's sliding fences. See "Sliding Fences" on
page 33.
4. Place the flat head screws through the holes in the auxil-
iary fence, then the holes in the stationary fence on the
tool.
5. Place the washers and nuts over the screw threads and
against the stationary fence. Tighten nuts.
