The Depth Stop; The Sliding Upper Fence Section - Evolution R185 SMS Instrucciones Originales

Place the set square on the table with one edge
against the table and the other edge against the
blade (avoiding the TCT tips). (Fig. 28)
If the blade is not at 90 degrees (square) with the
rotary table, then adjustment maybe required.
• Loosen the bevel lock handle and tilt the cutting
head to the left.
• Loosen the locknut on the Bevel Angle
adjustment screw. (Fig.29)
• Use a Hex Key to turn the screw in or out to
adjust the blade angle.
• Return the cutting head to its upright position
and recheck the angular alignment against the
set square.
• Repeat the above steps until correct angular
alignment is achieved.
• Tighten the Bevel Angle Adjustment
locknut securely.
0˚ Bevel Pointer Adjustment
Note: The operator must be satisfied that the
blade is set exactly perpendicular to the table
when in the upright position and against its stop.
• If the pointer is not in exact alignment with the
0˚ mark on the protractor scale adjustment is
necessary.
• Loosen the Bevel Pointer screw using a #2
Phillips screwdriver. (Fig. 30)
• Adjust the Bevel Pointer so that it is in alignment
exactly with the 0˚ mark.
• Retighten the screw.
45˚ Bevel Stop Adjustment
• Loosen the bevel lock handle and tilt the cutting
head completely to the left until it rests against
the 45˚ stop.
• Use a set square to see if it at 45 degrees to the
Rotary table (avoid the TCT tips).
• If the saw blade is not in exact alignment
adjustment is necessary.
• Return the cutting head to its
upright position.
• Loosen the locknut on the 45˚ Bevel adjustment
screw.
• Use a Hex Key to adjust the adjustment screw in
or out as required. (Fig. 31)
• Tilt the cutting head to the 45˚ setting and
recheck for alignment with the set square.
Repeat the above steps until the correct angular

alignment is achieved.
• Tighten the adjustment screw locknut securely
once alignment is achieved.

THE DEPTH STOP

(Fig. 32)
Use of the depth stop allows the operator to cut
slots in a work-piece.
The downward travel of the cutting head can be
limited so that the saw blade does not completely
cut through the work-piece.
Note: When using the depth stop it is
advisable that the depth of cut is checked using
a scrap piece of timber to ensure that the slot is
cut correctly.
By making a cut in the work-piece, and then
repeating the cut but with the work-piece slightly
repositioned to the left or right, it is possible to
perform trenching cuts.
To use the depth stop:
• Deploy the depth stop 'stop plate'
(Fig. 32a) by rotating it forward from its storage
position alongside the machine through
approximately 150 degrees to its service
position.
• Loosen the knurled locking nut. (Fig. 32b)
• Adjust the thumb - screw (Fig. 32c)
to limit the cutting heads travel to the
required depth.
• Once set to the desired depth, tighten the
knurled locking nut (Fig.32b) against the
retaining bracket to lock the depth stop and
ensure that there is no movement.
• When cutting is complete either re-adjust the
depth stop or return the 'stop plate' to its
storage position.
• Check that the Cutting can be locked in the
down position by the head latching pin.

THE SLIDING UPPER FENCE SECTION

(Fig. 33)
The Left Hand side of the machines Fence has an
adjustable Upper section. This section can slide to
the left by a maximum of approximately 100mm.
Note: To prevent the Sliding Upper section from
being removed completely (and thus possibly
being lost) the Sliding Upper section is 'captive' on
the Lower Fence.
Adjustment may be necessary when certain acute
