Portable Mounting Using Clamps
— If necessary, clamp the miter saw to a workbench
or table top.
— Place two (2) or more "C" clamps on the clamping
areas and secure (Figure 15).
— Be careful not to place clamps over the base
extension clamping levers (Figure 15).
— Mounting with clamps will prevent access to some
wide miter angles.
