Portable Mounting Using Clamps

If necessary, clamp the miter saw to a workbench

or table top.

Place two (2) or more “C” clamps on the clamping

areas and secure (Figure 15).

Be careful not to place clamps over the base

extension clamping levers (Figure 15).

Mounting with clamps will prevent access to some

wide miter angles.
