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.
PRETESTING WITH SCRAP MATERIAL IS
EXTREMELY IMPORTANT!
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 17A. Use of
the crown molding fence accessory (DW7084) is highly
recommended because of its degree of accuracy and con-
venience. 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.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR CUTTING CROWN MOLDING
ANGLED BETWEEN THE FENCE AND BASE OF
THE SAW FOR ALL CUTS:
1. Angle the molding so the bottom of the molding (part
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 17A.
2. The angled "flats" on the back of the molding must rest
squarely on the fence and base of the saw.

NEVER MAKE ANY CUT UNLESS THE MATERIAL IS
SECURED ON THE TABLE AND AGAINST THE FENCE.
ALUMINUM CUTTING
ALWAYS USE THE APPROPRIATE SAW BLADE MADE
ESPECIALLY FOR CUTTING ALUMINUM. These are
available at your local D
service center. Certain workpieces, due to their size,
shape or surface finish, 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 18. Figure 18A illustrates the
wrong way to cut these extrusions. Use a stick wax cutting
lubricant when cutting aluminum. Apply the stick wax
directly to the saw blade before cutting. Never apply stick
wax to a moving blade.
