(NORTh AMERiCAN MODELS ONLY)
North American models only are supplied with a silver dual-sided
inner-flange which enables you to safely fit Evolution multipurpose
blades with a 25.4mm (1") arbor and by 'reversing' this dual-sided
inner-flange, you can also safely fit saw blades with a 16mm (5/8")
arbor as available in the North American market.
Note: Evolution Multipurpose blades save time and money. Ideal
for cutting mild steel, aluminium, plastics and wood (even wood
containing embedded nails)! For use only with an Evolution power
tool saw. All Evolution Multipurpose TCT saw blades are made in
Japan and are of premium quality and performance.
1) 25.4mm (1") ARBOR BLADES
WARNiNG: Only carry out this operation with the machine
disconnected from the mains supply.
WARNiNG: You must ensure the silver dual-sided inner flange
side marked 25.4mm (1") visible to you is correct for the blade
arbor you are fitting. The silver dual-sided inner flange is marked
with the relevant arbor size each side. Do not fit
a 16mm (5/8") arbor blade to the 25.4mm (1") marked silver
dual-sided inner-flange side.
Note: It is recommended that the operator considers wearing
protective gloves when handling the blade during installation
or when changing the blade.
• The silver dual-sided inner-flange has a 25.4mm (1") arbor
ring elevation, indicated by the black circle (Fig. 40b).
• The 25.4mm (1") ring elevation is required to point 'outwards'
from the motor when fitting a 25.4mm (1") arbor blade,
as this provides a 25.4mm (1") arbor (Fig. 40c).
• Install the new blade (Fig. 40d). Make sure the rotation
arrow on the blade matches the clockwise rotation arrow on
the upper guard.
Note: The blade teeth should always point downward
at the front of the saw.
• Install the black 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 operating.
• Ensure the blade guard is fully functional before using
the machine.
