WARNING:

Failure to unplug the tool could result in accidental starting causing possible serious personal injury.

Before You Start

RIDGID miter saws bolt directly onto this workstand.

When you are finished attaching your saw to the workstand re-read the Operation and Rules for Safe Operation sections of this manual. Make sure that you understand how to set- up and fold the workstand safely. Saw and workstand combination must be stable in order to operate safely.

WARNING:

To avoid serious personal injury, always assure saw is fully supported and securely attached to a level work surface. If not, relocate to a more stable location.

WARNING:

To reduce the risk of injury from the miter saw moving or falling off stand, always check that all mounting bolts and nuts are securely tightened before moving stand or using tool.
