Mounting Applications
Be certain the miter saw is
mounted or placed on a level,
firm work surface before using. A level and firm work
surface reduces the risk of the miter saw becoming
unstable.
WORKBENCH PERMANENT ATTACHMENT
1.
Each of the four mounting holes should be bolted
securely using 5/16" (M8) bolts, lock washers and
hex nuts (not included), see Fig. 26.
2.
Locate and mark where the saw is to be mounted.
3.
Drill four 5/16" (8mm) diameter holes through work-
bench.
4.
Place the miter saw on the workbench, aligning
holes in base with holes drilled in workbench. Install
bolts, lock washers and hex nuts.
ALTERNATE ATTACHMENT
The smaller mounting holes at each corner can be used
for nails or longer drywall screws.
The supporting surface where the saw is to be mounted
should be examined carefully after mounting to ensure
that no movement can occur during use. If any tipping or
walking is noted, secure the workbench or stand before
operating the miter saw.
This could crack foot or damage base.
TEMPORARY MOUNTING USING CLAMPS
•
If necessary, clamp the miter saw to a workbench or
table top.
•
Place two or more "C" clamps on the clamping areas
and secure (see Fig. 27). There are clamping areas
at all four corners of the saw.
•
Be careful not to place clamps over the base exten-
sion clamping levers (see Fig. 27).
•
Mounting with clamps may prevent access to some
wide miter angles.
