General Safety Instructions for Miter Saw
Stands

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury:

• ALWAYS use eye protection. All users and bystanders must

wear eye protection that conforms to ANSI Z87.1.

• ALWAYS check the stability of the miter saw stand and the miter

saw attached to it before putting the stand or the saw into use.

• DO NOT mount any power tool other than a miter saw to this

stand. Mounting other power tools to this stand could result in
severe personal injury.

• DO NOT exceed the weight this stand can hold. The main center

beam of the miter saw stand is designed to support 500 lbs.
(227kg.) safely in a work environment. It is unsafe to climb, sit or
stand on the stand.

English

1

• Follow the mounting instructions carefully. Fasten the miter saw
to the saw mounting brackets securely as instructed.

• DO NOT modify or use stand for operations for which it is
unintended.

• DO NOT use the stand on uneven surfaces. The stand is
designed to be used on a flat, stable surface.

• DO NOT use on a slippery surface. The stand load capacity is

English

greatly reduced when used on slippery surfaces.

Preparation (Fig. 2)

1. Place the miter saw stand on the ground

with the folded legs facing up.

2. Depress the leg lock lever (J) or release

button (K) and pull leg up until the
locking pin clicks into the place. Repeat
on each leg.

3. Lift the stand by the center beam and

place it in an upright position. The stand
should be stable and should not rock.

NOTE: Ensure all locking pins are engaged
and the legs are locked in place.

Support and Length
Stops (Fig. 3–4)

a. The work support/stop (D) has

a clamp (L) to capture the
beam and keep it from being
knocked off the beam by your
material. The knob (M) may be

D

locked by turning clockwise and the work support/stop is free
to be repositioned when the knob is turned counterclockwise.
Do not overtighten, firm pressure on the knob will hold the stop
in place.

b. Adjust the height of the work support/stop (D) by loosening the

knobs on both sides (N) and raise or lower the top surface to
align with a straight edge or level to the saw table. Tighten the
knobs.

NOTE: If the work support height adjustment slips down when

under a load, the weight limit of the work support has been
exceeded. This weight limit is limited by the tightness of the

K

L

height adjustment knobs. Do not tighten more than finger tight.

DW7231 DEWALT Miter Saw Mounting
Method (Fig. 6, 7)

WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, turn unit off,
disconnect machine from power source before assembling the
miter saw to the miter saw stand. An accidental start-up can

cause injury.

WARNING: Stability Hazard. You must use the Universal
Miter Saw Mounting Method when mounting a miter saw not

manufactured by D

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, be sure the
miter saw is fully anchored on the stand.

WARNING: For your own safety, read and understand the miter
saw instruction manual before using. Failure to heed these warnings
may result in personal injury and serious damage to the miter saw
and the accessory.

1. Place saw in operational position with blade facing you. Align

with label on the mounting bracket showing front.

2. Place a spacer, such as a 2 x 4, under one side of the miter saw

to hold the saw’s mounting feet above the work surface.

3. Hold a mounting bracket under the saw and feed a carriage bolt

(hardware bag) up through the bracket and the foot of the saw.

NOTE: See DW7231 Hardware Selection Chart for the correct

mounting hardware procedures for D
all instructions properly, otherwise the miter saw's table rotation
may be obstructed.

5. Repeat procedure on the other end of the bracket.

6. Move the 2x4 to the other side of the saw to hold the other end
of the saw up in order to access the saw base.

7. Feed carriage bolts through the other bracket and the base of
the saw as before. Ensure both brackets are parallel to each
other.

8. To place the saw onto the stand, grasp and lift saw by mounting

English

bracket assembly by the release levers. These levers do not
lock the saw laterally in place but merely serve as a means of
mounting the saw to the beam.

FIG. 6

9. Approach the beam with saw/bracket
assembly tilting toward your body slightly.
Engage the concave front lip of the
mounting bracket with rounded edge of
beam. One of the brackets must engage
the locator clip (I) to prohibit lateral
movement of the saw during use.

10. When front edge of the beam and locking locator clip are
engaged, a slight downward pivot will allow secure engagement
of the release levers to the back of the beam. Rock the saw
gently on the brackets to verify locking in position.

11. Adjust the saw position as necessary to have the blade
perpendicular to the beam when in the 0 degree miter position.

12. Tighten the four nuts holding the saw to the brackets securely.

FIG. 7

DW7231 Universal Miter Saw Mounting
Method (Fig. 1, 7–9)

WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, turn unit off,
disconnect machine from power source before assembling the
miter saw to the miter saw stand. An accidental start-up can

cause injury.

WARNING: Stability Hazard. You must use the plywood mounting
method described in the following instructions when mounting a
miter saw not manufactured by D

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, be sure the
miter saw is fully anchored on the stand.

WARNING: For your own safety, read and understand the miter
saw instruction manual before using. Failure to heed these warnings
may result in personal injury and serious damage to the miter saw
and the accessory.

NOTE: If you do not have a D
(19mm) plywood to mount your miter saw.

The plywood must be a minimum of 4" (101.6mm) wider than the
largest width of the miter saw base. The plywood should be at least
as deep as the smallest depth of the miter saw base or a minimum
of 16" (406.4mm) if miter saw base is smaller. Ensure the plywood
is square.

I

1. Once the Plywood size has been determined, drill 3/8" (9.5mm)

holes 1" (25.5 mm) from the front corners of plywood, 15"
(355mm) apart and 1" (25.5mm) from the sides.

2. Place DW7231 mounting brackets on the stand:
a. Grasp and squeeze release levers (G).
b. Engage the concave front lip of the mounting bracket with

rounded front edge of beam. One of the mounting brackets
must be engaged in the locator clip (I) to prohibit lateral
movement of the saw during use.

3. When the front edge of beam and locator clip are engaged,
a slight downward pivot will allow secure engagement of the
release levers to the back of the beam. Follow same procedure
with second mounting bracket at the appropriate position on
the beam for the size of the plywood.

4. Place plywood onto mounting brackets and align drilled holes
with slots in mounting brackets. Refer to DW7231 Hardware
Selection Chart and use either Method 1 or 2 to secure ply­wood to mounting brackets.

5. Use 1/2" (13mm) wrench to tighten hardware.

6. The miter saw should be mounted to plywood using holes in
the miter saw base. The hardware size will be determined by
the holes in the miter saw base. Hardware should be 1-1/4"
(31.8 mm) longer than the maximum height of the miter saw
base at each mounting location.

Locking Locator Clip (Fig. 1)

The locking locator clip (I) keeps the saw from sliding left or right
during cutting operations. To move the clip, remove saw/bracket
assembly, loosen the screw in the center of the clip, slide it to the
desired position and tighten the screw. You can then remount the
saw/bracket in the new location.

Removing the Saw

English

Once the miter saw is fastened to the brackets, it can be removed
by grasping the release levers, pulling up slightly to clear the beam
and can be set down on the non marring feet for transportation or
cleaning.

Carry Handle (Fig. 10)

A handle has been supplied to transport the
miter saw stand to and from the work site.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal

injury, DO NOT attempt to store or carry the
stand with the saw attached. Loss of control
may result.
