ASSEMBLY
TABLE LEGS (not supplied)
See Figure 8.
AUXILIARY
TABLE TOP
Table legs can be made from either 2 x 4s or by purchasing
a Ryobi Leg Set, #4730305, depending upon the application
in which your saw is being used. For example, if your saw is
being used in a permanent application you may want to use
2 x 4s which will be more sturdy and provide extra stability.
The metal leg set may be preferable for portable applications
or when moving your saw around in a workshop.

Option #1

stability.
Place legs flush against bottom of table top and against
19 in. 2 x 4 attached to bottom of table top. See Figure 8.
TABLE LEG OPTION # 1
Secure table legs to table top with wood screws or bolts,
washers, and hex nuts (not included).
TABLE LEG OPTION # 2
TABLE LEG OPTION # 3
If extra bracing is needed, cut a scrap piece of wood and
attach to bottom of table legs. See Figure 9.
Option #2
Option #2 will allow table legs to be adjusted to the proper
height when your saw is used in portable applications, or in
situations where the floor is not perfectly level. This option
requires cutting a slot in top of table legs as shown in figure 8.
ADDITIONAL TABLE LEG OPTIONS
Additional options are also available for making table legs:
Option #3
Fig. 8
If desired, table brackets can also be used for leg brackets.
This option would eliminate the necessity of cutting slots in
top of table legs for height adjustments.
NOTE: Additional table brackets are available and may
also be purchased. Table brackets can be mounted upside
down on table legs and secured to extension rails. Using
the appropriate bolts, washers, and T-nuts will permit slots in
tablebracketstothenbeusedformakingheightadjustments.
See Figure 8.
Option #4
Itisalsopossibletoturnlegs90°fromthewaywehaveshown
and attach to each end of the 19 in. 2 x 4 under table top.
This option attaches similar to the way we have described
above, however, because of very close dimensions, it is a
more difficult procedure.

THE AUXILIARY EXTENSION TABLE AND
