Bench Mounting
Holes are provided in all four feet to facilitate bench mounting, as shown in Figure 2. (Two
different sized holes are provided to accommodate different sizes of screws. Use either
hole, it is not necessary to use both.) Always mount your saw firmly to prevent movement.
To enhance the tool's portability, it can be mounted to a piece of 1/2" (12.7 mm) or thicker
plywood which can then be clamped to your work support or moved to other job sites and
reclamped.
NOTE: If you elect to mount your saw to a piece of plywood, make sure that the mounting
screws don't protrude from the bottom of the wood. The plywood must sit flush on the work
support. When clamping the saw to any work surface, clamp only on the clamping bosses
where the mounting screw holes are located. Clamping at any other point will surely inter-
fere with the proper operation of the saw.
