Mounting The Miter Saw ....................................WARNING: To avoid injury from unexpected
saw movement:
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 hand-hold areas at the bottom of 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 inthe 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
throughlegset holes indicated by ,,o,, (see illustrations)
