of the operating procedures. To secure the
cable, secure the cable using the cable clip.
Note: The cable guides can be used to provide
a very convenient way of storing the mains
cable on the machine (Fig. 22) when the
machine itself is not being used and is perhaps
in storage.
UNLATCHING AND RAISING THE CUTTING
HEAD (Fig. 34)
WARNING: To avoid serious injury, NEVER
perform the locking or unlocking procedure
unless the saw is OFF and the blade
stationary.
To release the cutting head from the locked
down position:
• Gently press down on the Cutting
Head Handle.
• Supporting the head pull out the head
latching pin (Step 1) allow the cutting head
to rise to its upper position.(Step 2)
Note: The cutting head will automatically rise
to the upper position once it is released from
the locked down position.
• It will automatically lock in the upper
position.
If release is difficult:
• Gently rock the cutting head up and down.
• At the same time twist the Head Latching Pin
clockwise and pull outwards.
Note: We recommend that when the machine
is not in use the cutting head is locked in
its down position with the latching pin fully
engaged in the open half socket which is
machined into the cutting head upper surface
near to the pivot point. (Fig. 35).
INSTALLING OR REMOVING A BLADE
WARNING: Only carry out this operation
with the machine disconnected from the
mains supply.
WARNING: Only use genuine Evolution
blades or those blades specifically
recommended by Evolution Power Tools
and which are designed for this machine.
Ensure that the maximum speed of the
blade is higher than the speed of the motor.
Note: It is recommended that the operator
considers wearing protective gloves when
handling the blade during installation or when
changing the blade. Ensure the cutting head is
in its upper position. (Fig. 36)

• Press the lower blade guard locking trigger
(Step 1) and rotate the lower blade guard
(Step 2) up and into the upper blade guard.
Note: Lowering the cutting head slightly will
allow the lower blade guard to rotate fully into
the upper blade guard giving maximum access
for the operator.
• Press the black arbor lock button to lock the
arbor. (Fig. 37)
• Using the supplied Hex Key, release the
flange bolt and outer blade flange and the
blade from the arbor. (Fig. 38)
Note: The arbor screw has a LH thread.
Turn clockwise to loosen. Turn
counterclockwise to tighten.
Ensure that the blade and blade flanges are
clean and free from any contamination.
• The inner blade flange should be left in
place, but if it is removed for cleaning it must
be replaced the same way round as it was
removed from the machine.
Install the new blade. 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 outer blade flange
and flange bolt. (Fig. 39)
• 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.
CHECKING AND ADJUSTING
OF THE PRECISION ANGLES
Note: This machine has been accurately set up
and adjusted at the factory. If it is suspected
that some of the precision angles have
been lost (due perhaps to normal workshop
attrition) they can be reset by following the
procedure outlined below.
Note: Several checks/adjustments are possible
on this machine. The operator will require a set
square (not supplied) to carry out these checks
and adjustments.
