crossbars, and with the locking handle in the
down (locked) position, a bracket should be firm
and exhibit no signs movement.
Excessive force to deploy the locking lever to
the down position should be avoided. Gently
pressing the lever downwards with the palm of a
hand should be all the force needed to operate
the locking lever.
To adjust the clamping pressure:
• Turn the clamp upside down to reveal the
mechanism.
• Loosen the locking nut. (Fig. 5)
• Turn the adjustment screw (Fig. 6) clockwise
to increase the clamping pressure. Turn the
screw counter-clockwise to decrease the
clamping pressure.
• Tighten the locknut when adjustment is
successfully completed.
MOUNTING EVOLUTION MITRE SAW
TO THE MITRE STAND
Note: The Evolution Mitre Saw Stand is suitable
for most Evolution Mitre Saws.
• Remove and safely store the four (4) plastic
feet from underneath the base of the mitre
saw. (Fig. 7)
• Remove and safely store the stability block
from underneath the positive stop locking
lever. (Fig. 8)
• Attach the machine to the saw mounting
brackets (A) using suitable bolts, washers and
locknuts etc. The locking handles must be
positioned to the front of the mitre saw. (Fig. 9)
• Ensure that the fixings used do not protrude
so far through the base of the machine that
they interfere with any other parts of the Mitre
Saw. Only tighten 'finger tight' at this stage.
• Hook the front of the brackets over the front
of the mitre saw stands main frame tubular
crossbar. (Fig. 10)
• Push the back of the brackets down to engage
them onto the mitre saw stands crossbars.
(Fig. 11)
• Lock the brackets into place by gently
depressing the locking levers. (Fig. 12)
• If necessary re-postion the mitre saw on the
brackets so that the machines fence aligns as
near centrally with the rear tubular crossbar
of the mitre stand as possible. This will ensure
the greatest stability of the machine and mitre
saw stand during cutting operations.
• When the mitre saw is correctly positioned
on the stand, securely tighten the four (4)
mounting bolts.
MOUNTING UNUSUAL OR
UNCOMMON MITRE SAWS
If your mitre saw is 'uncommon' or 'unusual' an
adaptor plate may be necessary.
The adaptor plate can be bolted to the two (2)
saw mounting brackets, and when attached to
the stand should provide a suitable mounting
platform for most mitre saws.
The mitre saw can then be screwed or bolted to
the adaptor plate.
We recommend at least 25 mm thick plywood or
a piece of 32mm or 40mm kitchen worktop for
this adaptor plate.
Consult the manufacturer of the saw for any
special adjustments, other requirements or
fixings etc needed to permanently mount your
saw to a worktop.
• A square or rectangular piece of plywood, or
worktop should be sourced which will fit the
'footprint' and mounting hole configuration of
your saw.
• The adaptor plate should be drilled and
bolted to the saw mounting brackets using
appropriate bolts, or fixings etc.
• The adaptor plate can then be attached to the
mitre saw stand and the mitre saw positioned
upon the adaptor plate.
• For stability during use, care should be taken
to ensure that the mitre saw is positioned on
the adaptor plate so that most of the bulk and
weight of the saw is centrally located over the
two (2) mitre saw stand crossbars.
• Use suitable fixings to attach the mitre saw to
the adaptor plate.
• Check the stability of the machine and
installation over the full range of operating
conditions.
Note: Usually the machines fence should align
as closely as possible with the centre-line of the
mitre saw stand rear crossbar.
