# Stationary or flexible mounting

- To ensure safe handling, the power tool must be mounted on a flat, stable work surface (e.g. work bench) before use.

##

- Use suitable screw fasteners to secure the power tool to the work surface. The holes (13) are used for this purpose.

or

- Firmly clamp the base of the power tool to the work surface with commercially available screw clamps.

##

With the height-adjustable legs, Bosch GTA saw stands provide firm support for the power tool on any surface. The workpiece supports of the saw stand are used for underlaying long workpieces.

- Read all the warnings and instructions included with the saw stand. Failure to observe the warnings and follow instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

- Assemble the saw stand properly before mounting the power tool. Correct assembly is important to prevent the risk of collapsing.

- Mount the power tool on the saw stand in the transport position.

##

If, in exceptional circumstances, it is not possible to mount the power tool on a flat and stable work surface, you can improvise by setting it up with the tilt protector.

- Without the tilt protector, the power tool will not be stable and can tip over especially when sawing maximum mitre and/or bevel angles.

- Rotate the tilt protector (18) inwards or outwards until the power tool is positioned straight on the work surface.
