Rated 5 out of 5 by mrfurb initial review of assembly
Not too sure why there are all the complaints about the assembly instructions... other than having to flip from the written English instructions back to the common pictures a few times, the step-by-step directions were easy to follow.
I have a generic 10" sliding compound miter saw and it mounted easily to the brackets and rides well on the stand and I cane move the entire saw from right to left on the stand as needed.
I'll be putting this to the test over the next few months working in my garage / shop as well as travelling with the unit to job sites. I'll follow up with comments after I've used it enough to realistically comment on it.
For now, I'll be looking for another set or two of brackets so I can swap tools as needed.
All in all, seems to be a sturdy little fold up stand. Just what I needed for the small shop.

I'm getting this for Christmas 2015 I put it together in about 40mins the only issue I ran into was that the Illustrations could have been a little bigger to identify the bolts and nuts. With enough common sense and knowledge you'll have no problem. I love it......AWESOME.

First let me tell you that I have the AC9944 miter table and just love it. With that said, I bought the AC9945 for the price of $99.99 + tax. The miter utility Vehicle is awesome and performs to standards except for the cheap (000999131701 Saw Mounting Bracket Assembly. First the instructions say to place some sort of platform between the tool and the mounting brackets….. Really!!!!!!!!! That is because they are cheaply made “and will bend”. Another flaw is that ridgid could not make the table 2” wider to accommodate my other mounting brackets which means, I have to buy yet more mounting brackets and do a change over on my other ridgid power tools if I want to utilize this very nice miter saw stand. I hope with all sincerity that this was just an over sight on the team and not a got you move to sell more accessories. I have purchased numerous Ridgid power tool and have never had an issue until now and this is the reason I cannot give an overall 5 rating.

Rated 3 out of 5 by BizzyM Missing parts, horrible instructions
The stand itself is great, but packaging could be way better. Parts were thrown in the box loosely. Nuts and bolts were missing. The Operator's Manual is horrible. Text on the first few pages, but the sketches are in the back?

Rated 4 out of 5 by looker44 No Instructions & missing bolts
I don't know why people are complaining about bad instructions, I had none!!! And the bolts to put the handles were the wrong diameter.
I just looked at the picture and figured out the nut/bolt issue

For those who want a large miter saw but don't want it to limit your bench space this is great. I keep mine attached and roll it around everywhere. Very functional, very practical, and very durable.
I would love a second pair of brackets so I can put them on multiple saws with unbolting but unfortuately Ridgid keeps these hard to find and out of a practical price range.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Diablo Great for a small work shop
I replaced a Ryobi miter saw stand with this stand, the Ryobi stand was to hard for me to fold up and move by myself, it also did not stand upright on it's own very well either. I have a 12' x 20' work shop so floor space is very valuable and this stand allows me to easily fold it up by myself, wheel it into a corner with ease and frees up a lot of floor space for me when I am not using my miter saw. This stand is very well designed, very solid and very easy to assemble, mine did not even come with assembly instructions and for some reason my computer would not let me download the online manual, I figured it out by looking at a picture. I would highly recommend this stand to anyone with a shop or a mobile contractor. The online registration for the L.S.A. was also very simple, be sure you do that or you will not be very happy if something goes wrong when it's out of warranty.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Jimmiller596 Great product!
Works great. I've used it everyday for the last 2 months. Sturdy, durable. Only complaint was the setup directions. For the quality of the product Ridgid came up short. Bolts, screws, nuts, washers in different packages. No parts labeled.

I have the 12" compound miter saw and first off, the assembly instructions are the absolute worst I have ever seen. Why would the written instructions be in the front, and then the diagrams in the back of the book? That means you constant have to flip back and forth.
Second, the parts list couldn't be more unclear. All metric, with no picture so show what bolt, nut, etc... is being referenced.
Third, the clamping brackets that go on the top of the stand do not work with the 12" compound miter saw. WHAT!?!? The back slots will allow you to insert the bolts, but the front ones don't because of the locking mechanism on the clamps.. The instructions say to you "1/2" material or greater and mount that to the brackets, then mount the saw to the material." REALLY!? Are you serious? So I have to go buy plywood to make this work? That is unacceptable. If this issue hasn't been addressed it should, because this is a horrible design flaw with a half-hearted attempt for a fix.
Finally, I am missing parts from my kit. How would I go about getting them? How would I know what to call the part that I am missing since there is no picture accurately showing what the parts look like. I guess you could say I need a "dome top nut". The one that is used to secure the foot pad.
I have to say, this stand is a huge disappointment and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

Answer:
The manuals are designed to maintain a flow in regards to instructing the customer on set up and usage from one step to the next in each category. The pictures or figures are placed in a reference section towards the back of the manual for the customer to reference during the procedure the customer is performing, as needed. Unfortunately, not all customer like that set up with a manual, but that is the current format being used.The manuals loose parts page with part descriptions, and the text on assembly provide all of the necessary information to properly assemble the product. A detailed descriptive parts list should not be needed and is not included in the manual. However, if the customer wishes to view a parts list, they can do so on-line in the www.ridgidparts on-line parts system.
Unfortunately, the saw brackets for the MS-UV cannot accommodate every miter saw models design or foot pattern. For those models that do not fit, the option to mount to an mounting board and then to the brackets, is the only option advisable.
replacements for missing items from new RIDGID power tool and accessory purchases can be obtained by contacting the RIDGID customer service phone staff at 1-866-539-1710,
between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. EST, and providing your shipping address (No P.O. Boxes), and the tool or accessory model and serial number for the product.

Answer:
I had no problem mounting a 12" Chicago electric and Dewalt sliding compound miter saw to this, I took the brackets off then put my hardware through the 4 mounting holes, set the bracket on the saw, fronts first, then squared it up to the back of the brackets and tightened my bolts. As far as missing parts try the customer service number or just go to the hardware store and buy a 1/4-20 x 2"bolt, washer and nut.1 year, 7 months ago
Answer:
of course this stand fits a 12 miter saw - - I use it with a 12 in sliding compound miter - Ridgid. You will have to take the mounting brackets off the stand and mount them to the saw first (use the bolts that come with the stand - the short ones)You will have to remove the nut and screw from the mounting bracket - and take out the black curved part that clamps to the mounting bar - this will allow you to put the short bolt into the slot and up through the bottom of the saw then loosely attach the nut to the bolt (do the front one first then the back)..
Then simply re install the curved clamp part and adjust the tension once the saw is in place.

Answer:
I just mounted a 12" Dewalt compound sliding mitre saw and it was simple. It is not necessary to attach the mounts to the saw prior to attaching them to the MSUV. Here is how I did it....1) Place the mounting brackets on the MSUV in their approximate positions (but not locked in place) and place the saw on top of them.
2) Position the mounting brackets to line up the mounting holes on the saw base with the slots on the brackets. Just lift the side of the saw slightly to move the bracket from side to side on the MSUV.
2) Insert the rear bolts through the mounting bracket and saw base and install washers and nuts just a few threads.
3) Slide the saw toward the back of the mounting brackets so the front mounting holes on the saw base are almost clear of the bracket locking mechanism. Insert the front mounting screws and install washers and nuts finger tight. (You may have to lift the front of the saw slightly to slide the mounting screw into position.)
4) Position the saw where you want it (front to back) on the brackets and then tighten the nuts using a wrench. You can also nudge the brackets from the sides so they are as far under the sides of the saw base as they will go before tightening the nuts.
5) Saw is now attached to the mounting brackets! Just lock the brackets in place on the MSUV and you're good to go! Easy Peasy!

Thank you for your interest in RIDGID!There is no information available to advise with on whether or not the Dewalt DSW782 specifically will mount to the AC9945’s mounting brackets. The mounting brackets are designed to mount RIDGID miter saws. The option of using a piece of plywood to mount a saw it is the only suggestion we can advise of, if the saw in question does not fit the stands mounting brackets.

Yes, most miter saws in general will fit this stand. Older Craftsman may require a plywood support or a model that has off center front and back mounting holes.1 year, 7 months ago
