Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow all

instructions listed below and in your miter saw manual m

ay result in serious personal injury.

Fully ass e m b l e and tighte n al l the faste n e r s required for this stand. Also remember to occasionally check the stand and make sure it is still tight. A loose stand is unstable and may shift in

use and cause serious injury.

Turn tool switch off and disconnect power before mounting to the stand. Unintended startup during

assembly can cause injury.

Be fore o perati ng make sure the en tire unit i s placed on a solid, flat, level surface. Serious injury

could occur if tool with stand is unstable and tips.

Never stand on tool or its stand or use as ladder or scaffolding. Serious injury could occur if the tool is

tipped or the cutting tool is accidentally contacted. Do not store materials on or near the tool such that it is necessary to stand on the tool or its stand to reach them.

Use only Bosch replacement parts. Any others may create a hazard.

The Miter Saw should be firmly mounted to the stand per the instruction manual.

After mounting t he Miter Saw to the stand, align, position and balance the Miter Saw per the instruction manual.

Before use, verify that all stand parts are free from damage and/or deformity.

Before use, verify that all parts or components of the stand are properly installed.

Before use, swing open each of the legs until the pin clicks, locking the legs in position.

When mounting the Miter Saw to the stand, make sure that the tool mounting brackets are in the “UNLOCK” position, so the tool mount will engage with the rails. Be sure to hold the saw until it is secured to prevent it from falling off the rails. Mounting bracket locking knobs should then be tightened.

When removing the Miter Saw from the stand, loosen the mounting bracket locking knobs until they rotate to the “UNLOCK” position. Hold the Miter Saw firmly to prevent the saw from falling off the rails. Carefully remove the Miter Saw.

Do not modify the stand in any manner or use the stand for any purpose other than is stated in these instructions.

Because cut material may cause the stand to become unbalanced, always be sure the material is supported properly. Also, if the piece being cut is placed far beyond the work support, stand legs on the opposite side may suddenly be lifted up du e to weight imbalance. To prevent this from occurring, hold the opposite side firmly before cutting.

MOUNTING THE MITER SAW TO THE STAND

ee Figures 8 - 9.

1. Lift the saw and bracket assembly, allowing the a

ssembly to tilt slightly toward your body.

2. While still tilted toward you, hook the front edge of the bracket assembly onto the front rail (1) of the stand, figure 8.

To avoid se r i o us per s o n a l

injury, make sure the curved front edge of the mounting brackets are securely seated over the front rail before seating the other end of the brackets. Failure to do so could cause

you to lose control of the saw mounting assembly.

3. Lower the bracket assembly to allow the rear edge

of the bracket to seat fully over the rear rail (2), figure 8.

4. Lock the brackets in position by tightening the

locking knobs (3).

NOTE: Cont i n u e to h o l d the mo u n t ing br a c k e t assembly with one hand until both levers are securely locked.

5. Check position and adjust, if necessary, to make

sure the weight of the saw is evenly balanced over the rails as shown in figure 9.

6. Ensure t he saw is f u lly seated and locked in

position, then securely tighten the four nuts holding the saw to the saw mounting brackets.

To remove saw from stand:

1. Loosen the locking knobs to unlock the saw and

mounting bracket assembly.

2. Lift the saw away from the rear rail of the stand to

disengage.

3. With the assembly tilted slightly toward you, lift the

front part of the assembly to disengage from the front rail of the stand.

FIG. 9

Assembly

The mounting brackets are designed to fit snugly over the stand rails. With the locking knobs

in the tightened (locked) position, you should not be able to remove the saw and bracket assembly from the rails. If the mounting brackets will not fit over the rails, or if the mounting brackets can be removed from the rails when the brackets are locked, remove from the saw and bracket assembly immediately and tighten the bracket adjustment screw as described in the Adjustments section of this manual. Failure to heed this warning may result in personal injury.

Adjustments

BRACKET ADJUSTMENT SCREW

See Figure 10.

Mounting brackets are designed to fit snugly over the stand rails. When the locking knobs are tightened to their locked position, you should not be able to remove the saw and bracket assembly from the rails. If the saw and bracket assembly can be removed from the rails when locked, the bracket adjustment screws need to be tightened. If the saw and bracket assembly will not fit over both rails, the bracket adjustment screws needs to be loosened.

NOTE: The saw should be removed from the mounting brackets before attempting to tighten or loosen the bracket adjustment screws.

To adjust:

1. Use a wrench (1) to slightly loosen the nut (2).

2. Turn the screw (3) with a phillips screwdriver (4).

Rotate clockwise if the bracket assembly needs to be tightened or counterclockwise if the assembly needs to be loosened.

3. Install the bracket on the miter stand rails and

lower the locking lever to check the adjustment.

4. When the correct position is achieved, wrench

tighten the nut to secure.

5. Repeat with the second mounting bracket.

TO LEVEL STAND

See Figure 11.

The stand is equipped with an adjustable foot for leveling the stand.

To adjust: loosen wing nut (1) and adjust the height of the foot (2) by screwing the threaded shaft clockwise to raise foot or counter-clockwise to lower foot. Retighten wing nut securely.

To reduce the risk of inj ury,

ensure the stand is stable and level before operating the saw. Choose a level area

to set-up the stand and adjust the adjustable foot so that all four legs are touching the ground.

USING THE EXTENSION RAILS

ee Figure 12.

Use the extension rails (1) when working with larger w

orkpieces.

To extend the rails:

1. Loosen the extension adjustment knob (2).

2. Extend the rail (1) to the desired position.

3. Tighten the extension adjustment knob.

WORK SUPPORT HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT

See Figure 13.

1.Loosen the work support locking knob (3) located at

the end of the expansion rail, as shown in figure 13, and raise the work height support (4) so it is level with the table top of the attached miter saw.

2.Retighten knob and repeat on opposite side.

To reduce the risk of injury,

ensure that the work supports are adjusted so that the workpiece sits flat on the miter saw table. Workpieces that do not sit flat could

cause the blade to bind during cutting.

USING THE WORK STOPS

See Figure 14.

Raise the work stops (5) whenever you need to make repetitive cuts of the same size. To avoid a greater risk of binding or pinching, do not use both work stops at the same time.

To raise the work stops:

1. Loosen the work stop adjustment knob (6).

2. Raise the work stop (5) to the desired position.

3. Tighten the work stop adjustment knob.
