WARNING:
Always make sure the compound miter saw is securely
mounted to a workbench or an approved workstand. Failure
to heed this warning can result in serious personal injury.
MOUNTING HOLES
See Figure 8.
If not using a stand, the saw should be mounted to a firm
supporting surface such as a workbench. Four bolt holes
have been provided in the saw base for this purpose. Each
of the four mounting holes should be bolted securely using
1/4 in. machine bolts, lock washers, and hex nuts (not
included). Bolts should be of sufficient length to accommodate
the saw base, lock washers, hex nuts, and the thickness of
the workbench. Tighten all four bolts securely.
The hole pattern for mounting to a workbench is shown in
figure 8. 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.

See Figure 9.
A dust bag is provided for use on this miter saw. It fits over
the exhaust port on the upper blade guard. To install, squeeze
the two metal clips to open the mouth of the bag and slide
it on the exhaust port. Release the clips. The metal ring in
the bag should lock in between the grooves on the exhaust
port. To remove the dust bag for emptying, simply reverse
the above procedure.
