(4) Setting to cut crown moldings at positions w and e in Fig. 25 (see Fig. 32):

qTurn the table to the left and set the Miter Angle as follows:

*For 45° type crown moldings: 35.3°

*For 38° type crown moldings: 31.6°

wTilt the head to the right and set the Bevel Angle as follows:

*For 45° type crown moldings: 30°

*For 38° type crown moldings: 33.9° ( mark)

ePosition the crown molding so that the lower surface (A in Fig. 24) contacts the fence as in Fig. 33.

Aluminum Sash

Materials such as aluminum sash can easily deform when tightened too much in a vise assembly. This will cause inefficient cutting and possible overload of the motor.

When cutting such materials, use a wood plate to protect the workpiece as shown in Fig. 34.

When cutting aluminum materials, coat the saw blade with cutting oil (non-combustible) to achieve smooth cutting and a fine finish.

10. How to use the dust bag (Standard accessory)

Blade Guard (Metal)

Dust Bag

Right

Angle

(1)When the dust bag has become full of sawdust, dust will be blown out of the dust bag when the saw blade rotates.

Check the dust bag periodically and empty it before it becomes full.

(2)During bevel and compound cutting, attach the dust bag at a right angle to the base surface as shown in Fig. 35.

CAUTION: Empty the dust bag frequently to prevent the duct and the blade guard (metal) from becoming clogged.

Sawdust will accumulate more quickly than normal during bevel cutting.
