MOUNTING HOLES
This tool comes mounted to a leg stand. If you chose to
remove the leg stand, the table saw must be mounted to a
firm supporting surface such as a workbench or leg stand.
Four bolt holes have been provided in the saw’s base for
this purpose. Each of the four mounting holes should be
bolted securely using 3/8 in. machine bolts, lock washers,
and hex nuts (not included). Bolts should be of sufficient
length to accommodate the saw base, lock washers, hex
nuts, and the thickness of the workbench. Tighten all four
bolts securely.
Carefully check the workbench after mounting to make sure
that no movement can occur during use. If any tipping, slid-
ing, or walking is noted, secure the workbench to the floor
before operating.
