Warning, Mounting Holes, To Install/replace The Blade

Page 14 highlights

ASSEMBLY WARNING: Always make sure the compound miter saw is securely mounted to a workbench or an approved workstand. Failure to heed this warning can result in serious personal injury. Mounting Holes See Figure 8. If not using a stand, the saw should be mounted to a firm supporting surface such as a workbench. Four bolt holes have been provided in the saw base for this purpose. Each of the four mounting holes should be bolted securely using 1/4 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. The hole pattern for mounting to a workbench is shown in figure 8. Carefully check the workbench after mounting to make sure that no movement can occur during use. If any tipping, sliding, or walking is noted, secure the workbench to the floor before operating. To Install/replace the Blade See Figures 9 - 10. WARNING: A 7-1/4 in. blade is the maximum blade capacity of the saw. Never use a blade that is too thick to allow outer blade washer to engage with the flats on the spindle. Larger blades will come in contact with the blade guards, while thicker blades will prevent the blade bolt from securing the blade on the spindle. Either of these situations could result in a serious accident and can cause serious personal injury.  Unplug the saw.  Raise the saw arm.  Rotate lower blade guard up and remove blade bolt cover screw. Rotate blade bolt cover up and back to expose the blade bolt.  Depress and hold the spindle lock button and rotate the blade bolt until the spindle locks. trace holes at these locations for hole patTern BASE trace holes at these locations for hole patTern Spindle Lock Button mounting surface Fig. 8 Fig. 9 14

ASSEMBLY
WARNING:
Always make sure the compound miter saw is securely
mounted to a workbench or an approved workstand. Fail-
ure to heed this warning can result in serious personal injury.
MOUNTING HOLES
See Figure 8.
If not using a stand, the saw should be mounted to a firm
supporting surface such as a workbench. Four bolt holes have
been provided in the saw base for this purpose. Each of the
four mounting holes should be bolted securely using 1/4 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.
The hole pattern for mounting to a workbench is shown in
figure 8. Carefully check the workbench after mounting to
make sure that no movement can occur during use. If any
tipping, sliding, or walking is noted, secure the workbench
to the floor before operating.
TO INSTALL/REPLACE THE BLADE
See Figures 9 - 10.
WARNING:
A 7-1/4 in. blade is the maximum blade capacity of the
saw. Never use a blade that is too thick to allow outer
blade washer to engage with the flats on the spindle.
Larger blades will come in contact with the blade guards,
while thicker blades will prevent the blade bolt from se-
curing the blade on the spindle. Either of these situations
could result in a serious accident and can cause serious
personal injury.
Unplug the saw.
Raise the saw arm.
Rotate lower blade guard up and remove blade bolt cover
screw. Rotate blade bolt cover up and back to expose
the blade bolt.
Depress and hold the spindle lock button and rotate the
blade bolt until the spindle locks.
