WARNING

Safety
1. Never place ngers, toes or other body parts under the saw when it is raised onto the mobile base. The base
may suddenly lower and cause a severe injury.
2. Do not attempt to use or move the saw on an inclined surface because the weight of the saw makes it di󰀩cult
to stop. Attempting to use or move the saw on an inclined surface could result in a severe injury.
3. Make sure the saw is fully lowered to the ground and stable before operating the saw. Otherwise, the saw could
move unexpectedly and cause a severe injury.
4. Be sure to unplug or disconnect the saw from power before moving or repositioning it. The main power cord or
the power outlet could be damaged if the saw is not disconnected from power before moving it.
Note:If you are using the SawStop out-feed table you must remove it before moving your saw with the
mobile base. Attempting to lift the saw with the out-feed table attached may damage the out-feed table.
SawStop warrants to the original retail purchaser of the mobile base accompanying this guide that the mobile
base will be free from defects in material and workmanship for ONE YEAR from the date of purchase. This warranty
does not apply to defects arising from misuse, abuse, negligence, accidents, normal wear-and-tear, unauthorized
repair or alteration, or lack of maintenance.
Please contact SawStop to take advantage of this warranty. If SawStop determines the mobile base is
defective in material or workmanship, and not due to misuse, abuse, negligence, accidents, normal wear-and-
tear, unauthorized repair or alteration, or lack of maintenance, then SawStop will, at its expense and upon proof
of purchase, send replacement parts to the original retail purchaser necessary to cure the defect. Alternatively,
SawStop will repair the mobile base, provided it is returned to SawStop, shipping prepaid, within the warranty
period. This warranty is void if the mobile base is modied without the prior permission of SawStop, or if the mobile
base is located or has been used outside of the country where the authorized SawStop distributor from whom the
mobile base was purchased resides.
SawStop disclaims any and all other express or implied warranties, including merchantability and tness for a
particular purpose. SawStop shall not be liable for death, injuries to persons or property, or incidental, consequential,
contingent or special damages arising from the use of the mobile base.
This warranty gives you specic legal rights. You may have other rights which, in the United States, vary from
state to state.

10 SawStop®Professional Cabinet Saw Mobile Base
Installing Your Mobile BaseInstalling Your Mobile Base - Method 2
1. You need access to the bottom of your saw to install the mobile base. The easiest and safest way to provide
that access is to tip the saw so that it rests on the end of the front rail, as shown in Fig. 19. The saw’s center
of gravity makes it stable when in this position. Both the front and rear rails must be securely mounted on the
saw before tipping the saw.
If you already have an out-feed table mounted to your saw you will need to remove it before tipping the saw.
Also, if you have an extension table with support legs attached to your saw, you will need to remove the support
legs or rotate them out of the way. Steps 2 and 3 below describe how to rotate the support legs on a SawStop®
T-GlideTM Professional Series II extension table out of the way. If you have not installed an extension table or
your extension table does not have support legs, skip to step 4.
2. Rotate the legs on a SawStop® T-GlideTM Professional Series II extension table out of the way by removing the
lower M10 x 40 hex head bolt that mounts each leg its support bracket (see Fig. 20). Use two 17 mm wrenches
or adjustable wrenches to remove the bolts. Also remove the corresponding M10 washers and M10 lock nuts.

3. Loosen the M8 x 65 countersunk socket head bolt
that mounts the front leg to the front rail, but do not
remove the bolt or nut. Use the 5 mm short-arm
hex key supplied with the mobile base to keep the
bolt from turning while you loosen the nut with a 13
mm wrench (see Fig. 21). The 5 mm short-arm hex
key is sized so that it can engage the head of the
bolt without having to remove the front rail tube.
Repeat the procedure to loosen the M8 hex nut on
the back of the M8 x 65 countersunk socket head
bolt that mounts the rear leg to the rear rail. Rotate
the end of each support leg toward the saw so that
both support legs are out of the way and the saw
can be tipped onto its side.

5. Locate all of the mobile base components shown on page 1. All of the hardware needed to install the mobile
base is located on the hardware pack (see Fig. 23). In order to easily identify the hardware used in each of

4. With the front and rear rails are securley mounted, any out-feed table removed, and the extension table legs
removed or rotated out of the way, the saw can be tipped to the side. To make the saw easier to tip, adjust the
tilt handwheel until the blade is set at 45° to the table. Make sure the saw is on a level surface and then, with
the help of an assistant, grip the sides of the rails near the ends and push down to gently lower the rails to
the ground (see Fig. 22). Do not grip an extension table or the end of the rails to lower the saw to the tipped
position because you might pinch your ngers between the extension table or rails and the ground. The rear
rail is shorter than the front rail and typically will not touch the ground. To prevent scratching the rails, you can
set the edge of the front rail on a piece of cardboard or cloth.

notches for the wheel support align as shown in Fig. 34a. With the slots aligned, position the pedal assembly so
that the wheel support bar ts in the notches and
so that the threaded end of the xed wheel axle
extends through the mounting hole in the pedal
assembly. When positioning the pedal assembly
make sure the linkage bar extending from the
caster support is below the pedal assembly. Use
an M6 lock nut from the hardware pack to secure
the pedal assembly to the xed wheel axle as
shown in Fig. 34b. Fully tighten the nut using a
17 mm wrench and a 10 mm socket.
