Setting Up Your Saw

The ICS is a stationary saw. In some situations it is important to be able to relocate your stationary saw from
one position to another in your workshop. For example, you may want to store any stationary saw against a
wall in your workshop and then move the saw away from the wall to use it. An optional mobile base allows you
to reposition your stationary saw with ease.

1. Saw Placement:

Position the saw on a level surface away from
sources of moisture and electrical noise. Make
sure there is sufficient room to allow free access
to all sides of the saw.
If you plan to relocate the saw occasionally,
mount the saw in the optional SawStop Industrial
Mobile Base (see Fig. 6). This mobile base has
been specifically engineered to fit the Industrial
Cabinet Saw and to support the weight of the
saw including the optional T-Glide Fence, Rails
and Extension table. See the Owner's Manual
included with the Industrial Mobile Base for
instructions on mounting the saw in the base
and operating the base.

2. Extension Wing Assembly:

The saw is shipped with the right extension wing
pre-installed. Position the left extension wing next
to the table, making sure the small beveled edge
on the surface of the extension wing is facing
forward. Insert the three M10x1.5x30 bolts (with
washers and lock washers) through the holes in
the side of the wing and into the threaded holes in
the side of the table (see Fig. 7). Align the top of
the extension wing with the table using a straight
edge and then fully tighten the bolts using a 17 mm
wrench. You may want someone to help hold the
extension wing in place while you fasten the bolts.
3. Table and Extension Wing Cleaning:
The table and extension wings are shipped with a coating of oil on the top surfaces to prevent the cast iron
from rusting. Carefully wipe the top surfaces with a soft, clean cloth to remove the oil. To prevent the top
surfaces from rusting during use, you can coat the surfaces with rust-preventative materials such as TopCote
or TopSaver™, available in many woodworking stores. If the saw will not be used for an extended time, the
table and wing surfaces can also be protected by applying a light coating of oil and then covering with wax
paper.

4. Rip Fence Installation:

This saw ships without a rip fence. You must install a rip fence prior to using the saw. Refer to the manual that
accompanied your rip fence for instructions on installing the fence on the saw.
