ASSEMBLY
MOUNTING THE MITER SAW TO THE STAND
See Figures 8 - 9.
Use the handles located at the rear of the mounting brackets
to aid in installing or removing saw and bracket assembly.
n �Lift the saw and bracket assembly, allowing the assembly
to tilt slightly toward your body.
n While still tilted toward you, hook the front edge of the
bracket assembly onto the front rail of the stand.
WARNING:
To avoid serious personal injury, make sure the curved
front edge of the mounting brackets are securely seated
over the front rail before seating the other end of the
brackets. Failure to do so could cause you to lose control
of the saw mounting assembly, which could cause seri-
ous personal injury.
n Lower the bracket assembly to allow the rear edge of the
bracket to seat fully over the rear rail.
Fig. 8
n Lock the brackets in position by lowering the locking
levers.
NOTE: Continue to hold the mounting bracket assembly
with one hand until both levers are securely locked.
n Check position and adjust, if necessary, to make sure
the weight of the saw is evenly balanced over the rails
as shown in figure 9.
n Ensure the saw is fully seated and locked in position, then
securely tighten the four nuts holding the saw to the saw
mounting brackets.
�To remove saw from stand:
n Raise the locking levers to unlock the saw and mounting
bracket assembly.
�n Grasp the handles on either side of the assembly and lift
away from the rear rail of the stand to disengage.
n �With the assembly tilted slightly toward you, lift the front
part of the assembly to disengage from the front rail of
the stand.
WARNING:
The mounting brackets are designed to fit snugly over the stand rails. With the locking levers in the lowered (locked)
position, you should not be able to remove the saw and bracket assembly from the rails. If the mounting brackets will
not fit over the rails, or if the mounting brackets can be removed from the rails when the levers are locked, remove from
the saw and bracket assembly immediately and tighten the bracket adjustment screw as described in the Maintenance
section of this manual. Failure to heed this warning may result in serious personal injury.
