Vibration Safety

Tools mounted on this Stand vibrate during use.

Repeated or long-term exposure to vibration may cause temporary or permanent physical injury, particularly to the hands, arms and shoulders.

To reduce the risk of vibration-related injury:

1. Anyone using vibrating tools regularly or for an extended period should first be examined by a doctor and then have regular medical check-ups to ensure medical problems are not being caused or worsened from use. Pregnant women or people who have impaired blood circulation to the hand, past hand injuries, nervous system disorders, diabetes, or

Raynaud’s Disease should not use this tool.

If you feel any symptoms related to vibration (such as tingling, numbness, and white or blue fingers), seek medical advice as soon as possible.

2. Do not smoke during use. Nicotine reduces the blood supply to the hands and fingers, increasing the risk of vibration-related injury.

3. Wear suitable gloves to reduce the vibration effects on the user.

15. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

16. The warnings, precautions, and instructions discussed in this instruction manual cannot cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood by the operator that common sense and caution are factors which cannot be built into this product, but must be supplied by the operator.

4. Use tools with the lowest vibration when there is a choice.

5. Include vibration-free periods each day of work.

6. Grip tool as lightly as possible (while still keeping safe control of it). Let the tool do the work.

7. To reduce vibration, maintain the tool as explained in this manual. If any abnormal vibration occurs, stop use immediately.

8. People with pacemakers should consult their physician(s) before use. Electromagnetic fields in close proximity to heart pacemaker could cause pacemaker interference or pacemaker failure. In addition, people with pacemakers should:

• Avoid operating alone.

• Properly maintain and inspect to avoid electrical shock.

• Properly ground power cord. Ground Fault Circuit

Interrupter (GFCI) should also be implemented

– it prevents sustained electrical shock.

SAVE THESE INSTRUcTIONS.

WARNING!

Included Carriage Bolts (54) may be too long or short for your miter saw. They must properly secure the miter saw to the brackets, thread all the way through the washers and nut, and not interfere with the safe operation of the saw in any way.

Replacement bolts can be used instead, but they must be grade 5, have the same head type and size as the included Bolts (54), and have a 1.25mm thread pitch and M8 thread diameter. They also must properly secure the miter saw to the brackets, thread all the way through the washers and nut, and not interfere with the safe operation of the saw in any way.

9. Adjust the position of the Carriage Bolts on the Mounting Brackets and the position of the

Mounting Brackets on the Saw Stand to align with mounting holes on the miter saw base.

10. CAUTION! Make sure the miter saw (not included) is unplugged from its electrical power supply source before attempting to mount on the Miter Saw Stand.

11. With assistance, lower the miter saw onto the Mounting Brackets, making sure the

Carriage Bolts on the Brackets pass through the mounting holes on the miter saw base.

12. Secure the miter saw in place on the

Mounting Brackets using M8 Flat

Washers (51), M8 Spring Washers (57), and M8 Nuts (56) on the Carriage Bolts.

Note:

If the miter saw does not have at least four mounting holes that line up with the bolts on the

Mounting Brackets, it will need to be attached using a universal mounting platform, as explained below.

13. To remove the miter saw with attached

Mounting Brackets from the Miter Saw Stand, press the Locking Buttons on the Mounting

Brackets to open the Locking Handles and lift the miter saw off of the Stand.

Universal Mounting platform

1. For miter saws with unusual mounting patterns, a mounting platform can be used. Use minimum

3/4" thick plywood that is at least 4" wider than the widest part of the miter saw base and at least as deep as the smallest depth of the miter saw base or a minimum of 16", whichever is larger.

2. Ensure the plywood is square and drill 3/8" holes in the four corners, 1" in from the sides.

3. Attach the Mounting Brackets to the Stand as described in

Assembly

, steps 6 to 8 on page 5.

4. Adjust the position of the Carriage Bolts on the Mounting Brackets and the position of the

Mounting Brackets on the Saw Stand to align with mounting holes on the plywood platform.

5. Attach the plywood platform to the Mounting

Brackets using M8 Flat Washers (51),

M8 Spring Washers (57), and M8

Nuts (56) on the Carriage Bolts.

6. Place the miter saw in the chosen location on the platform and use mounting holes in the miter saw base as a template to mark mounting hole locations on the plywood. Remove saw and drill holes at marked locations of an appropriate size for the mounting hardware to be used. Use the largest diameter hardware possible.

7. Mount miter saw to plywood platform using four bolts

(grade 5 or better), flat washers, lock washers, and nuts (not included). Tighten all hardware securely.

Maintenance

procedures not specifically explained in this manual must be performed only by a qualified technician.

TO pREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM AccIDENTAL OpERATION:

Turn the power switch of the miter saw mounted on the Miter Saw Stand off, and unplug the tool from its electrical outlet before performing any procedure in this section.

TO pREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM TOOL FAILURE:

Do not use damaged equipment. If abnormal noise or vibration occurs, have the problem corrected before further use.

1.

BEFORE EAcH USE,

inspect the general condition of the Miter Saw Stand. Check for:

• loose hardware

• misalignment or binding of parts

• cracked or broken parts

• loose or improper mounting of the miter saw

• any other condition that may affect its safe operation.

2.

AFTER USE,

wipe external surfaces of the Stand with clean cloth.

3. Periodically, lightly lubricate all moving parts of the Miter Saw Stand.

Adjusting the Mounting Brackets

After extensive use of the Miter Saw Stand, the Mounting Brackets may require readjustment. If the

Mounting Brackets can be removed from the Saw Stand rails when the Locking Handles are locked, the bracket adjustment screws should be tightened. If the Mounting Brackets will not fit over the Saw

Stand rails, the bracket adjustment screws should be loosened. To adjust the Mounting Brackets:

1. Remove the miter saw with attached Mounting

Brackets from the Stand, then remove the

Brackets from the miter saw.
