Porter-Cable 3802L Troubleshooting, Crown Moulding Other Angles, Work Support Extensions

45-45 CROWN MOULDING

NOTE: If you are cutting crown moulding that is 45°-45°, follow the same procedure above, with the exception that the bevel position will always be at 30° and the miter position will be 35-1/4° to the right or left.

OTHER ANGLES

NOTE: The above instructions are assuming the angle between the walls is 90°. If you need help cutting crown moulding for walls set at angles other than 90°, see the instruction sheet “CUTTING CROWN MOULDING” on the Porter-Cable web site at www.portercable.com.

WORK SUPPORT EXTENSIONS

For support when cutting long pieces, a work support extension can be constructed. Fig. 49 illustrates the miter saw mounted to two standard 2 x 4’s (A). Fasten the four mounting legs (two of which are shown at (B) Fig. 49) to the 2 x 4’s, using four screws (not supplied) through the four holes in the mounting legs. The length of the 2 x 4’s (A) can vary, depending on the kind of work that will need to be cut.

NOTE: Ensure that the top of the support 2 x 4’s are level with the miter saw table.

This is critical because the distance from the top of the 2 x 4’s

(A)to the miter saw table varies from saw to saw. In most cases, standard 2 x 4’s (C) can used. If these are too high, cut the 2 x 4s (C) to provide this height or use other properly-sized wood
