Erbauer ERB238MSW - Cutting Crown Moulding

ERBAUER 254MM (10”) SINGLE BEVEL SLIDING MITRE SAW
Base mouldings and many other mouldings can
be cut on a compound mitre saw. The setup of
the saw depends on moulding characteristics
and applications, as shown. Perform practice

against fence and table. Use hold-down or
G-clamps, whenever possible, and place tape
on the area being clamped to avoid marks.
2) Reduce splintering by taping the cut area prior
to making cut. Mark cut line directly on the tape.
3) Splintering typically happens due to wrong
blade application and thinness of the material.
Note: Always perform a dry run cut so you can
determine if the operation being attempted is
possible before power is applied to the saw.
