a. Before moving the saw, lock the miter (and bevel if applicable) lock knob, and lock the power head in the lower position using the stop shaft. Unplug electric cord.
b. To avoid back injury, Hold the tool close to your body. Bend your knees so you can lift
with your legs, not your back° Lift by using the
base or the carry handle.
c. Never carry the miter saw by the power cord or by the trigger grip of the plastic handle. Carrying the tool by the power cord could cause damage to the insulation or the wire
connections resulting in electric shock or fire.
d. Place the saw so other people cannot stand behind iL Thrown debris could injure people in its path.
e. Place the saw on a firm, level surface where there is plenty of room for handling and properly supporting the workpiece.
f.Support the saw so the table is level and the saw does not rock.
g.Bolt or clamp the saw to its support°
Place the saw in the desired location either on a work bench or the recommended leg set, The base of the saw has two sets of four holes to mount the miter saw, four smaller holes for "Drywall" screws and four larger holes for 5/16 bolts, (see illustration) If the saw is to be used in one location, permanently fasten it to the work bench or leg set,

Portable Applications
To mount the saw to a 3/4" piece of plywood, use the 5/16 bolt holes or the 4 drywall screw holes. The mounting board can then be clamped down to prevent it from tipping_ Plywood mount also helps protect saw from damage during the rough handling associated with portable miter saw usage,
Work Bench Applications
Mount as specified in portable applications Check for workpiece clearances to left and right of saw_
Leg Set Applications
To mount saw to below mentioned leg set, use larger holes in saw base Attach with hardware shown
