Bench Mounting
Bench mounting holes (8) are provided in all four feet to facilitate
bench mounting, as shown in Figure 1. (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" 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 interfere with the proper operation of
the saw. CAUTION: To prevent binding and inaccuracy, be sure the
mounting surface is not warped or otherwise uneven. If the saw rocks
on the surface, place a thin piece of material under one saw foot until
the saw sits firmly on the mounting surface.
Important Safety Instructions
Changing or Installing a New Saw Blade
CAUTION:
•Never depress the spindle lock button while the blade is under
power or coasting.
•Do not cut ferrous metal (containing iron or steel) or masonry or fiber
cement product with this miter saw.
Removing the Blade

raised, place the blade on the spindle, and against the inner clamp
washer with the teeth at the bottom of the blade pointing toward the
back of the saw.
3. Assemble the outer clamp washer onto the spindle.

screw firmly with wrench provided. (Turn counterclockwise,
left-hand threads)
