Assembling miter saw stand: (Fig. 1)

(1) Front foot (2 units)

  1. Place the stand assembly upright.
  2. Secure the front foot R (11) to the stand leg with screw plate (10), hex bolt M6 x 40 (9) (2 pcs), flat washer 6 (12) (2 pcs) and hex nut 6 (13) (2 pcs).
  3. Insert the support (14) into the holes on the front foot R.
  4. Secure the front foot L (11-1) by repeating the above procedure.

(2) Wheel assembly

  1. Remove the whole parts from the wheel axis.
  2. Place the flat washer (4), wheel (3) and flat washer (4) on wheel axis (5) in order. Then slide the wheel axis (5) into the leg (15). Place the flat washer (4), wheel (3) and flat washer (2) on the other side of the wheel axis. Secure the lever on the wheel axis end, and then tighten the hex nut 8 (1).
  3. Check the wheels turn properly after loosening the lever. If the wheels do not turn, it shows the hex nut 8 is excessively tightened. When using a miter saw stand, secure the lever to fix the wheels.

(3) Foot arm (1 unit)
Insert the foot arm (7) into the ports of the leg and secure them by hex socket bolt M8 x 10 (8) (2 pcs). When securing the foot arm, insert it in a proper direction. Otherwise the foot arm cannot be secured.

Installing miter saw on the miter saw stand: (Fig. 2)

Loosen the levers (16). Place a miter saw so that the bolt holes in the miter saw base overlap holes on the working table. Secure the miter saw stand with hex bolt M8 x 50 (17) (4 pcs), flat washer 8 (18) (8 pcs) and hex nut 8 (19) (4 pcs). Secure the levers (16).
