	vertical position slide the locating pin (HH) into the
	riving knife slot (II) centering the riving knife within the	D
	v-shaped notch in the top guard. Refer to Figure 11.
2.	Rotate the blade guard assembly toward the front
	of the saw while keeping the pin (HH) at the top
	of the riving knife slot. Rotate until the blade guard
	assembly is parallel to the table. Refer to Figure 12.
3.	Press the blade guard lock lever (WW) down until it
	snaps into the locked position. Check to make sure	II

TO BENCH MOUNT SAW (FIG. 3)

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn unit off and disconnect machine from power source before attempting to move it, change accessories or make any adjustments. An accidental start-up can cause injury.

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of personal injury, make sure table saw is firmly mounted before use.

The table saw must be mounted firmly. Four mounting holes (N, Fig. 3) are provided in the metal frame for mounting. We strongly recommend that these holes be used to anchor the table saw to your workbench or other rigid, stationary work support.

CAUTION: Ensure that the surface is stable enough that large pieces of material will not cause it to tip over during use.

1.Center the saw on the desired, stable work surface.

2.Drive four 3-1/2" (88.9 mm) long screws through the holes in the metal frame. Make sure the screws extend through the frame and securely attach to the supporting work surface.

If marring the supporting work surface is a concern, the DWE7480 can be mounted to scrap wood which can then be clamped onto the desired work surface.

1.Cut a piece of 3/4" (19 mm) plywood to fit beneath the footprint of the saw.

2.Screw the saw to the plywood and clamp the overhang of the plywood to the work surface. If the screws protrude through the plywood base, set it on two scrap pieces of material of equal thickness and attach them to the edges of the plywood to hold the saw further off of the work surface and prevent the screws from marring the surface.
