Locate the table saw in a well lit and level area where
you can maintain good footing and balance. It should be
installed in an area that leaves enough room to easily
handle the size of your workpieces. The table saw
should be secured with four screws or bolts to the work
bench or table saw stand using the holes provided in the
bottom of the table saw. When securing the table saw on
the work bench, make sure that there is an opening in
the top of the work bench the same size as the opening
in the bottom of the table saw so the sawdust can drop
through.
If during operation there is any tendency for the table
saw to tip over, slide or move, the work bench or table
saw stand should be secured to the floor.
