ŏ Disconnect the power cord from the outlet and
lock the cutting head in the lower position using
the hold-down latch.
ŏ Lock the slide carriage in place by tightening the
slide carriage lock knob.
ŏ To avoid back injury, lift the saw by using the
designated carrying handles located on the top
of the machine. Bend with your knees, not your

visitors to stand near the saw during any cutting
operations.
Mounting instructions:
ŏ For stationary use, place the saw in the
desired location, directly on a workbench where
there is room for handling and proper support
of the workpiece. The base of the saw has eight
mounting holes (10-Fig. 6), four 3/8 in. holes for
mounting the saw to the work surface. Bolt
the base of the miter saw (1) to the work
surface (5), using the recommended fastening
method as shown in Fig. 7.
NOTE: Mounting hardware is not included with
this tool. Bolts, nuts, washers and screws must
be purchased separately.
ŏFor portable use, place the saw on a
3/4 in. thick piece of plywood. Bolt the base of
the miter saw securely to the plywood using the
mounting holes (10-Fig. 6) on the base. Use
C-clamps to clamp this mounting board to a
stable work surface at the worksite (Fig. 8).
NOTE: If a miter saw stand is used, please
follow all instructions shown in that product’s
instructions for proper mounting.
