FASTENING THE MACHINE TO THE SUPPORTING SURFACE

Before operating your compound miter saw, mount it to a sturdy workbench or other supporting surface. Four holes are provided, two of which are shown at (A) Fig. 5.

When frequently moving the saw from place to place, mount the saw to a 3/4″ piece of plywood. The tool can then be easily moved from place to place and the plywood can be clamped to a supporting surface using “C” clamps.
