Cutting crown mouldings
The cutting of crown moulding is performed in a compound mitre. In
order to achieve extreme accuracy, your saw has pre-set angle positions
at 35.3° mitre and 30° bevel. These settings are for standard crown
mouldings with 45° angles at the top and 45° angles at the bottom.
Make test cuts using scrap material before doing the fi nal cuts.
All cuts are made in a left bevel and with the back of the moulding
against the base.

Sawing in the bench mode
Always use the riving knife.
Always ensure that the riving knife and blade guard are correctly
aligned.
Always ensure that the mitre saw is set and locked in 0° mitre.
WARNING: Do not cut metal in this mode.
Ripping (fi g. U1 & U3)
Set the bevel angle to 0°.
Adjust the saw blade height.
Set the parallel fence to the required distance.
Hold the workpiece fl at on the table and against the fence. Keep the
workpiece approx. 25 mm away from the saw blade.
Keep both hands away from the path of the saw blade.
Switch the machine on and allow the saw blade to reach full speed.
Slowly feed the workpiece underneath the upper blade guard, keeping
it fi rmly pressed against the fence. Allow the teeth to cut, and do not
force the workpiece through the saw blade. The saw blade speed
should be kept constant.
Remember to use the push stick (23) when close to the blade.
After completing the cut, switch the machine off, allow the saw blade
to stop and remove the workpiece.
WARNING: Never push or hold the free or cut-off side of the
workpiece.
WARNING: Always use a push stick when ripping small
workpieces.
Bevel cuts (fi g. U2)
Set the required bevel angle.
Proceed as for ripping.
Cross-cutting (fi g. V1)
Set the bevel angle to 0°.
Adjust the saw blade height.
Set the mitre fence to 0°.
Proceed as for ripping, only use the mitre fence to push the workpiece
through the blade.
Bevel cross-cutting
Set the required bevel angle.
Proceed as for cross-cutting.
Mitre cuts (fi g. V2)
Set the mitre fence to the required angle.
Proceed as for cross-cutting.
Optional attachments
WARNING: Prior to assembling any accessories always unplug
the machine.

WARNING! This machine is provided with two dust extraction
points for use in each mode.
WARNING! Whenever possible, connect a dust extraction
device designed in accordance with the relevant regulations
regarding dust emission.
WARNING! When sawing wood, connect a dust extraction
device designed in accordance with the relevant regulations
regarding dust emission.
Connect a dust collection device designed in accordance with the relevant
regulations. The air velocity of externally connected systems shall be 20m/s
±2 m/s. Velocity to be measured in the connection tube at the point of
connection, with the tool connected but not running.
Connecting - mitre saw position (fi g. W1)
