Assembling your BOSCH GTA570 Folding Table Saw Scissor Stand is crucial for safe and effective use with your Bosch GTS18V-08 table saw. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you get set up:
- Preparation is Key: Start by unpacking and verifying that all components listed in the parts list within the BOSCH GTA570 manual are present.
- Tools You'll Need: Gather the necessary tools before you begin. You'll require a Phillips head screwdriver and either a 7/16" hex socket wrench or an open-end wrench.
- Stand Assembly Instructions:
- Identify the legs labeled "A", "B", "C", and "D". Match them with the corresponding locations on the Stand Subassembly.
- Align the holes on each leg with those on the Stand Subassembly.
- Secure the legs by inserting the Phillips head screws through the holes. Tighten them using the hex lock nuts.
- Mounting the Table Saw:
- Unfold the scissor stand to its fully open position.
- Carefully slide your table saw onto the stand, ensuring the back of the saw's base goes under the stand's Retainer Tabs. Center the base inside the L-Shaped Brackets located at the front.
- To secure the saw, use the Wire Hook of the Clamp on the front. Latch it onto the tube of the saw base, and then lock the clamp into place.
- Transporting the Stand: To move the stand, first, remove the table saw if it's mounted. Then, fold the stand up for convenient transport.
- Maintenance and Safety: Always check and tighten all fasteners regularly, as detailed in the assembly guide, to make sure the stand is stable and safe for every use. Following these instructions will allow you to correctly assemble your BOSCH GTA570 Folding Table Saw Scissor Stand, ensuring a stable and safe working platform for your Bosch GTS18V-08 table saw.
