Delta 36-412 instruction manual Cutting Crown Moulding Flat Position

Page 18

A NEW FEATURE FOR THIS TOOL IS CROWN MOULDING STOPS BUILT INTO THE BASE. DELTA DOES NOT CONSIDER THE CROWN MOULDING STOPS TO BE WORK CLAMPS AND THEY ARE NOT TO BE

USED IN THIS MANNER.

MAKE SURE THAT THE FENCES ARE CLEAR OF THE GUARD AND BLADE BEFORE OPERATING THE SAW.

WHEN CUTTING CROWN MOULDING USING THE CROWN MOULDING STOPS, DO NOT BEVEL THE CUT. THE CROWN MOULDING STOP FEATURE IS DESIGNED TO MAKE THE CUT WITH THE CUTTINGHEAD AT 90° AND

WITH THE TABLE ROTATED 45°.

CUTTING CROWN MOULDING (FLAT POSITION)

One of the many features of the saw is the ease of cutting crown moulding. The following is an example of cutting both inside and outside corners on 52°/38° wall angle crown moulding.

1.Move the table to the 31.62° right miter position and lock the table in position. NOTE: A positive stop is provided to find this angle quickly.

2.Tilt the saw blade to the 33.86° left bevel position and tighten bevel lock handle. NOTE: A triangle indicator is provided on the bevel scale to find this angle quickly.

3.Place the crown moulding on the table with the CEILING EDGE of the moulding against the fence, and make the cut, as shown in Fig. 47.

NOTE: The piece of crown moulding used for the outside corner will always be on the right hand side of the blade, as shown at (A) Fig. 47. The piece of crown moulding used for the inside corner will always be on the left hand side of the blade, as shown at (B) Fig. 47.

4.To make the matching halves of the inside and outside corners, rotate the table to the 31.62° left miter position.

NOTE: A positive stop is provided to find this angle quickly. The saw blade is already tilted to the 33.86° bevel position from the previous cut.
