Transporting and Mounting

Mounting Applications

Workbench permanent Attachment

1.Each of the four mounting holes should be bolted securely using 5/16" bolts, lock washers and hex nuts (not included).

2.Locate and mark where the saw is to be mounted.

3.Drill four 5/16" diameter holes through work- bench.

4.Place the miter saw on the workbench, aligning holes in base with holes drilled in workbench. Install bolts, lock washers and hex nuts.

Alternate Attachment

The smaller mounting holes at each corner can be used for nails or longer drywall screws.

The supporting surface where the saw is to be mounted should be examined carefully after mounting to ensure that no movement can occur during use. If any tipping or walking is noted, secure the workbench or stand before operating the miter saw.

Be careful not to over-drive nail or over-torque the bolt. This

could crack foot or damage base.

Holes

Temporary Mounting Using Clamps

If necessary, clamp the miter saw to a workbench or table top.

Place two or more “C” clamps on the clamping areas and secure (see Figure 29). There are clamping areas at all four corners of the saw.

Be careful not to place clamps over the base extension clamping levers (see Figure 29).

Mounting with clamps may prevent access to some wide miter angles.
