ASSEMBLY

TO MOUNT THE TABLE SAW TO THE LEG STAND

See Figure 12.

WARNING:

Do not lift the saw without help. Hold it close to your body. Keep your knees bent and lift with your legs, not your back. Ignoring these precau- tions can result in back injury.

Remove the following hardware from the blister hardware pack:

8 carriage bolts (5/16-18 x 5/8 in.)

8 hex nuts, flanged (5/16-18)

Place the saw table upside down on a smooth surface, such as cardboard, on the floor.

Place the leg stand on the table saw base. Align the holes in the table with the holes in the legs.

NOTE: The front panel is the one with the RIDGID® logo and must be on the front of the saw base.

Insert a screw through the hole in the saw base and the hole in the leg stand. Add a hex nut. Hand tighten.

Repeat for remaining holes. Tighten all hardware with a wrench.

TO INSTALL EXTENSION TABLES

See Figure 13.

With the table saw still in the upside down position, place a table extension against the table top.

Insert four hex head screws (5/16-18 x 3/4 in. with washers) through the holes in the table extension and screw into the table top. Do not tighten.

NOTE: The holes in the table top are threaded.

Repeat above step on the other table extension.

Stand saw upright on leg stand.

NOTE: Do not lift the saw without help. This saw is heavy.

Line up the front edge of the extension table with the front edge of the table top. Using a combination square, check the alignment of the table top edge to the extension rail edge. Tighten the two corner nuts only with a 1/2 in. wrench.

Check the center of the table top and extension table. If necessary, use a C-clamp to align the edges. Tighten the center nuts with a 1/2 in. wrench.

Repeat steps for the other extension table.
