ASSEMBLY
WARNING:
This saw can tip over if the saw head is released suddenly
and the saw is not secured to a work surface. ALWAYS
secure this saw to a stable work surface before any use
to avoid serious personal injury.
MOUNTING HOLES
See Figure 7.
WARNING:
Before starting any cutting operation, clamp or bolt your
miter saw to a workbench or an approved miter saw stand.
If a miter saw stand is used, read operator’s manual and
follow the instructions for the miter saw stand. Never
operate your miter saw on the floor or in a crouched
position. Failure to heed this warning can result in serious
personal injury.
The compound miter saw should be mounted to a firm
supporting surface such as a workbench, mounting board,
or miter saw stand. The saw base has four mounting
holes. If using bolts, they should be of sufficient length to
accommodate the saw base, lock washers, hex nuts, and
the thickness of the workbench or other mounting surface.
Tighten all bolts or screws securely.
The hole pattern for mounting to a workbench is shown in
Figure 7. Carefully check the workbench after mounting to
make sure that no movement can occur during use. If any
tipping, sliding, or walking is noted, secure the workbench
to the floor before operating.
