Powermatic Mobile Base Extension Kit

Powermatic Mobile Base Extension Kit For Larger Tools

Powermatic Mobile Base Extension Kit is the 708158 extension kit for the 708119 mobile base, so it is designed to work as part of that specific base system for shop machines. This extension kit allows you to maneuver your table saw and extension table around your workshop, turning a stationary setup into a movable workstation for changing layouts. The available extension rails let you use the base with machines that have long and narrow footprints, such as lathes, so one base setup can support different machine types in the shop. The base can hold tools up to 1,200 lbs, so heavy table saws and comparable machines stay supported during movement and use. A 5/8 inch ground clearance provides a low center of gravity, so the machine stays stable while still rolling over typical shop floors.

Key Mobile Base Details That Support Shop Work

• The 708158 mobile base extension kit for 708119 mobile base allows you to maneuver your table saw and extension table around your workshop, so you can reposition heavy equipment without lifting or breaking down setups.
• Available extension rails let you use the base with machines that have long and narrow footprints, such as lathes, so one base system can adapt to different machine sizes in the same workspace.
• Extremely strong, yet lightweight base can hold tools up to 1,200 lbs, so large machines stay supported while still being practical to roll into position.
• 5/8 inch ground clearance provides a low center of gravity for excellent stability under load, so the machine stays planted during cutting while still being mobile between tasks.
• Two fixed and two swivel casters offer easy mobility and lock into place for stability during use, so you can steer accurately into tight spots and then hold the tool steady once in place.
• Wheel locks fix the machine in position, so the base resists movement during operation and keeps cuts consistent.

Mobile Base Adjustment And Fit For Shop Layouts

The unique quick-snap adjustment allows you to configure the base width and length from 24 inch x 24 inch to 34 inch x 34 inch without the need for tools, so you can size the base to match different machine footprints. Adjusting within that range lets you fit many table saw and extension table combinations while keeping the frame closely aligned to the machine for better support. The combination of two fixed and two swivel casters offers directional control and turning ability, so you can move straight down aisles or pivot into corners as required by your floor plan. When the wheel locks are engaged, the machine position stays fixed relative to your fence setups and outfeed support, which supports repeatable results after moving the tool.

The adjustable base width and length from 24 inch x 24 inch to 34 inch x 34 inch covers a range of machine stands and extension tables, so you can set the frame close to the cabinet edges for support.

How This Base Supports Repeatable Positioning

The unique quick-snap adjustment allows you to configure the base width and length without the need for tools, so you can dial in the frame size quickly when changing from one machine footprint to another and reduce downtime between configurations. A 5/8 inch ground clearance provides a low center of gravity for excellent stability under load, so the tool stays steady when locked for cutting while still rolling smoothly when relocated. The extremely strong, yet lightweight base can hold tools up to 1,200 lbs, so heavy cast-iron machines remain well supported during repeated moves. Two fixed and two swivel casters offer easy mobility; lock into place for stability during use, so you can roll into a precise location, set the wheel locks, and maintain that position from cut to cut. Wheel locks to fix machine in position help maintain alignment with fences, outfeed tables, or nearby workstations after every move.
