Note: The blade teeth should always point
downward at the front of the saw.
• Install the outer blade flange, washer and
arbor screw.
• Lock the arbor and tighten the arbor
screw using moderate force, but do
not overtighten.
• Ensure the Hex Key is removed and the
arbor lock has released before proceeding.
• Ensure the blade guard is fully functional
before using the machine.
THE LASER
This machine is equipped with a Laser Cutting
Guide. This allows the operator to preview
the path of the blade through the workpiece.
The ON/OFF slide switch for the Laser Guide is
positioned in the Right Hand (RH) side of the
Cutting Head Handle. (Fig. 39)
WARNING: Avoid direct eye contact with the
laser beam, and do not use on materials that
could reflect the laser beam (back into your eyes).
WARNING: Do not stare directly at the laser
beam. A hazard may exist if you deliberately
stare into the beam. Please observe all of
the following safety rules.
• The laser beam must not be deliberately aimed
at personnel and must be prevented from
being directed towards the eyes of a person.
• Always ensure that the laser beam is used
only on work-pieces that have non-reflective
surfaces, i.e natural wood or matt surfaces etc.
• Never exchange the laser module assembly
for a different type or class of laser.
• Repairs to the laser module must only be
conducted by Evolution Power Tools or their
authorized agent.
Note: The laser Guide can be a very useful
facility, particularly when a large number of
work-pieces are to be cut.
However the laser Guide should not
be regarded as a substitute for good
conventional planning and marking out.
LASER SAFETY
The laser guide line used in this product uses
a class 2 laser with a maximum power output
of 1mW at a wave length of between 650nm.
These lasers do not normally present an
optical hazard, although staring at the beam
may cause temporary flash blindness.
WARNING: Do not stare directly at the
laser beam. The laser must be used and
maintained as detailed in this manual.
Never intentionally aim the laser beam
at any person and prevent it from being
directed towards the eye, or an object other
than the work-piece. Always ensure that
the laser beam is directed at the work-piece
only when it is located on the mitre saw
table.
Never direct the laser beam onto any
bright, shiny reflective surface, as the laser
beam could be reflected back towards the
operator. Do not change the laser unit for
any other type.
Do not tamper with the laser unit. Only
touch the unit when making adjustments.
Repairs to the laser shall only be carried out
by an authorised service centre.
The laser guide line.
The projected laser guide line shows the path of
the blade during a cut. To use the laser guide for
a known angle (e.g. 45˚ mitre):
• Mark the cut required on the work-piece
using a pencil, etc.
• Set the saw to the cutting angle required
(45˚) and lock into position using the mitre
locking handle and/or the positive stop
locking lever.
• Switch on the laser beam.
• Position the work-piece on the rotary table
and against the fence.
• Slide the work-piece into position until
the pencil line on the work-piece and the
projected laser line exactly match.
• Clamp the work-piece into position using the
hold down clamp.
• Proceed to make the cut.
