MOUNTING HOLE

See Figure 6.

Your miter saw should be mounted to a firm supporting
surface such as 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 3/8 in. (10
mm) 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, shown in figure 6, is for an 18 in. (457 mm)
x 24 in. (610 mm) workbench. 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.

OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES

Optional accessories, provided on some models, are avail-
able for use with your saw. They include table extensions, a
stop block, work clamp, and dust bag.

Table extensions increase the work surface to 36 in. (914
mm) wide, providing support for cutting long workpieces.

The stop block provides a stop for making repetitive cuts to
same length. It can be installed on either side of saw base.

The work clamp provides a means for clamping workpiece
securely against the fence when making a cut. Standard "C"
clamps can also be used for this purpose.

The dust bag catches sawdust, helping keep work area
cleaner.

If these accessories were not provided with our saw, they
are available from your Ryobi dealer. For the location of a
distributor near you, call 1-800-525-2579 in the United
States.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

Your saw has a precision built electric motor. It should be
connected to a power supply that is 120 volts, 60 Hz, AC
only (normal household current). 
Do not operate this tool
on direct current (DC). A substantial voltage drop will cause
a loss of power and the motor will overheat. If your tool does
not operate when plugged into an outlet, double-check the
power supply.

WARNING:

The operation of any saw can result in foreign objects
being thrown into your eyes, which can result in severe
eye damage. Before starting power tool operation, always
wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields
and a full face shield when needed. We recommend wide
vision safety mask for use over eyeglasses or standard
safety glasses with side shields.

WARNING:

Do not attempt to modify this tool or create accessories
not recommended for use with this tool. Any such alter-
ation or modification is misuse and could result in a
hazardous condition leading to possible serious per-
sonal injury.
