Attach the power tool to a level, horizontal work bench in accordance with Fig. 4.
Select 5/16" (8mm) diameter bolts suitable in length for the thickness of the work bench.
Bolt length should be at least 1" (25mm) plus the thickness of the work bench.
For example, use 2" (50mm) or larger bolts for a 1" (25mm) thick work bench.
The holder attached to the rear of the base helps stabilize the power tool.

Loosen the 6mm bolt with the supplied 10mm box wrench.
Adjust the base holder until its bottom surface contacts the work
bench surface.
After adjustment, firmly tighten the 6mm bolt.
