ASSEMBLY
MOUNTING HOLES
See Figure 9.
WARNING:
Before starting any cutting operation, clamp, bolt or
screw 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 or screws, 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 9. 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.
INSTALLING MITER FENCES
See Figure 10.
 Turn the fence lock knob counterclockwise to clear fixed
fence slots.
 Install the sliding miter fence. Lower fence into fence
slots. Be sure side of fence lines up flush with side of
fixed fence.
 Tighten fence lock knob securely. Repeat on other side.
USING THE DEPTH GUIDE
See Figure 11.
When used, the depth guide limits the downward travel of
the blade when cutting dadoes and other non-through cuts.
To use the depth guide:
 Unplug the saw.
 Rotate the depth stop outward.
 Loosen the lock nut.
 With the depth control knob touching the depth stop,
adjust the depth control knob by turning the knob until
the desired depth of cut is attained.
 Tighten the lock nut.
 A wooden spacer must be placed between the workpiece
and the fence to create a distance of 3-1/2 inches
between the workpiece and the fence for a consistent
depth of cut in the workpiece. Use the work clamp to
clamp the spacer and another suitable clamp to clamp
the workpiece. Make the slide cut at the desired depth.
See Figures 45 and 46.
