Cutting base mouldings
The cutting of base moulding is performed at a 45° bevel angle.
• Always make a dry run without power before making any
cuts.
• All cuts are made with the back of the moulding laying flat on
the saw.

• Position the moulding with top of the moulding against the
fence.
• Save the left side of the cut.

• Position the moulding with the bottom of the moulding
against the fence.

• Position the moulding with top of the moulding against the

• Save the right side of the cut.
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 31.62° mitre and 33.85° bevel. These
settings are for standard crown mouldings with 52° angles at
the top and 38° angles at the bottom.
• Make test cuts using scrap material before doing the final
cuts.
• All cuts are made in a left bevel and with the back of the
moulding against the base.

Grooving (fig. R)
Your saw is equipped with a grooving stop (17) and thumbscrew
(59) to allow for groove cutting.
• Flip the grooving stop (17) towards the front of the saw.
• Adjust the thumbscrew (59) to set the depth of the groove
cut. It might be necessary to release the lock nut (60) first.
• Place a piece of scrap material of approx. 5 cm between
fence and workpiece in order to perform a straight groove
cut.
Special Set-up for Wide Crosscuts (fig. A1, S1, S2)
Your saw can cut very wide (up to 391 mm) workpieces when a
special set up is used. To set the saw up for these workpieces,
follow these steps:
• Remove both left and right sliding fences from the saw and
set aside. To remove them, unscrew the fence knobs several
turns and slide each fence outward. Adjust and lock the
miter control so that it is at
0 degrees miter.
• Remove backfence screws (64) from right rear foot and
install them into the right hand fence (62) screw holes.
WARNING: Do not cut material using the special
setup without properly installing the backfence screws
(64), otherwise the material will not be supported
properly and may cause loss of control and possible
injury.
• Make a platform using a piece of 38 mm thick particleboard
or similar flat strong 38 mm thick wood to the dimensions:
368 x 660 mm. The platform must be flat otherwise the
material could move during cutting and cause injury.
• Mount the 368 x 660 mm platform to the saw using
four 76.2 mm long wood screws (64) through the holes
in the base fence. Four screws must be used to properly
secure the material. When the special set up is used, the
platform will be cut into two pieces. Ensure the screws are
tightened properly otherwise material could loosen and
cause injury. Ensure the platform is firmly flat on the table,
against the fence, and centered evenly from left to right.
WARNING: Ensure the saw is mounted firmly to a
stable flat surface. Failure to do so could cause the
saw to be unstable and fall causing personal injury.
• Place the workpiece to be cut on top of the platform
mounted to the table. Ensure the workpiece is firmly against
the backfence.
• Secure the material before cutting. Cut slowly through the
material using a out-down-and-back motion. Failure to
clamp securely or cut slowly could result in the material
coming loose and causing injury.
After several cuts are made at various miter angles other than
0º, the platform may weaken and not properly support the work.
Install a new, unused platform to the saw after presetting the
desired miter angle.
