completely safe throughout.
When the cut has been completed the
operator should release the ON/OFF Trigger
Switch and allow the motor to stop and the
blade to become stationary.
As the saw is lifted from the Cutting Track
and workpiece the lower blade guard will
automatically deploy covering the blade
completely.
DUST / DEBRIS COLLECTION
An adaptor nozzle
(Fig. 25)
can be fitted to all
CCS machines. Fitting the nozzle allows the
machine to be connected to a dust/debris
collection device.
Note:
The exact design of the nozzle supplied
will vary depending upon type of model and
the market destination of the machine.
The supplied nozzle will accept a wide variety
of debris/dust collection devices currently
available. The nozzle should be fitted to the
Cut Material Ejection Port.
(Fig. 26)
Note:
A workshop dust/debris extraction
machine can be attached to the adaptor
nozzle if required. Follow the manufacturers
instructions if such a machine is fitted and
ensure that it is capable of handling the
ejected cut material.
LED LIGHT
Some of these machines (depending upon the
model and market destination) are equipped
with an automatic LED Light.
Note:
If you are unsure of which features
are provided on your machine, consult the
Specification Page provided in this manual.
The LED Light is positioned to the left hand
(LH) side of the blade.
(Fig. 27)
The beam from the LED will light up the left
hand side of the blade and also illuminate any
marking out lines present on the workpiece.
This should help the operator predict the path
of the blade through the workpiece and thus
aid efficiency, accuracy and safety.
Note:
Operation of the LED Light is automatic.
As soon as the machine is connected to the
mains supply the LED will activate. This gives
the operator a clear visual indication that the
machine has been successfully connected to
the mains electrical supply, and is therefore
powered (is 'live') and ready for cutting
operations to commence.
Note:
There are no user serviceable parts
incorporated within the LED Light assembly and
the beam direction is factory set. The protective
lens cover should be kept clear of dust etc.
(see Maintenance) to ensure the maximum
brightness of the projected beam is maintained.
WARNING:
Only clean the lens cover with the
machine disconnected from the mains power
supply and the blade completely stationary.
INTEGRAL CUTTING AIDS
All Evolution circular saws are equipped with
various cutting aids or guides designed help
the operator achieve quick accurate cuts safely.
Note: Not all of the following features will
appear on every machine.
0˚ and 45˚ Line of Cut Guides (Fig. 28)
Located on the front edge of the machines sole
plate are two (2) small notches, which on some
machines are identified with an angular number.
These notches indicate the position of the blade
as it exits the workpiece when the bevel tilt angle
is set at 0˚ (blade vertical) or at an angle of 45˚.
Front of Blade Guide (Fig. 29)
Note:
Evolution machines compatible with
Evolutions Cutting Track have a notch located on
the right hand edge (RH) of the sole plate casting.
This notch indicates the position of the front
edge of the blade when the blade is set at
maximum cutting depth. This feature can be
used when placing and positioning the saw on
a Cutting Track.
WARNING:
It is important that the lower blade
guard or blade do not touch any surface of the
workpiece during the initial positioning of the
saw on the Cutting Track.
Ruler Guides (Fig. 30)
Ruler guides are present on some Evolution
circular saws. They are positioned along the
front and/or side edges of the sole plate.
These guides can give a useful approximate
position or prediction of the saw blade in the
workpiece.
SPECIALISED ADJUSTMENTS
Your Evolution machine has many precision
engineered components and settings, most of
which are factory set and adjusted to ensure
consistent long term accuracy.
