Can I get a favor from a Grizzly 513 owner.

[Kurt Rosenzweig]

Well I pulled the trigger on the 513x2 and a Shop Fox mobile base. Today the base came in and I would love to put it together so when the saw shows up I can set it right on the base while I have the help here. Anyway, long story short can someone give me a foot print measurement? Thanks in advance.

27"x17 7/8"

Spec sheet says 27x17 3/4" I may have bee slightly off.

Thanks Cary.

Kurt, heads up that you may need to boost up the saw inside the base with a piece of 3/4" plywood to give the bottom door enough clearance to open without hitting the base rail. I have that base with the 514, which I believe has the same base geometry as the 513, and unfortunately I didn't notice this interference until I already had the saw sitting in the base.

Regards,
Steve

Thanks Stephen. I have the same issue with my cabinet saw and the dust collection port. You da man!
