four legs of the base. These should
be firmly mounted using bolts (not
included) to your saw stand or saw
table (not included). This will help
prevent tipping or movement of the
saw, preventing injury. Also, the use
of a saw table will make it easier to
efficiently handle work materials and
make more accurate cuts.

work piece and work area Set up
Designate a work area that is clean
1.
and well-lit. The work area must not
allow access by children or pets to
prevent injury and distraction.
Route the power cord along a safe
2.
route to reach the work area without
creating a tripping hazard or exposing
the power cord to possible damage.
The power cord must reach the work
area with enough extra length to
allow free movement while working.
Use a saw table, saw stand or other

means to support the work piece.
The Miter Saw must be mounted in
such a way that the surface is level to
the ground, and supports used must
provide a surface on the same level
as the saw table. If the work surface
and any work materials supports
are not level, and on the same level,
unwanted bevel angles will appear in
the cuts resulting in poor joinery.
Work pieces may be secured to
4.
the saw table using the Hold Down
Clamp or other clamping devices (not
included). Securing the work piece
will provide safety by preventing
kick back and by removing the need
to hold work pieces near the blade
by hand. Clamping the work piece
will also improve cutting accuracy
by preventing the work piece from
moving during the cutting operation.
When using this saw, work pieces

are often quite long. Allow room on
both left and right of saw for extended
work pieces.
