Getting Started
Turning the Crown & Miter Pro feature ON
1. To activate the Crown & Miter Pro feature, Simply
press the [W] key twice.
2. Type [0] then the [Start] key.
These buttons, located along the top of the SawGear control,
are used to set angles once the Crown & Miter Pro feature is
turned ON.
Measuring Angles and Lengths
Crown & Miter Pro works best if, going counter clockwise around the room, you make a list of
angles and cut lengths. See Table 1.
Note - If doing base moulding, you will want to work clockwise around the room.
How to use Crown & Miter Pro
Once we have a list compiled, we can start using the system.
[W] Key
The [W] key is used to set the width of the molding.
[X] Key
In Crown & Miter Pro mode, the [X] key acts as the first angle of your part. Press the [X] key,
and the following screen will display;
A is the angle. S is the saw angle you will need to set.
Enter the first angle of the piece you want to cut, then use the [increm] key to select if this is an
inside or outside corner. As you type the angle the angle the saw will need to be set to will dis-
play. You will also see < for Left or > for Right. This will tell you which direction to set the saw
angle.
