To use the depth stop:
• Deploy the depth stop 'stop plate'
(Fig. 28a) 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. 28b)
• Adjust the thumb - screw (Fig. 28c)
to limit the cutting heads travel to the
required depth.
• Once set to the desired depth, tighten the
knurled locking nut (Fig.28b) 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. 29)
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 bevel or compound angles are selected
to provide clearance for the moving cutting
head and blade as a cut is made.
To adjust the sliding fence:
• Loosen the thumbscrew. (Fig. 30)
• Slide the upper section of the Fence
leftwards to the required position and
tighten the thumbscrew.
• Conduct a 'dry run' with the power off
to confirm that there is no interference
between moving parts as the cutting head
and blade are lowered to make a sliding cut.
THE LASER
This machine is equipped with a laser cutting
guide. This allows the operator to preview the
path of the blade through the work-piece. The
ON/OFF switch for the laser Guide is positioned
on the top of the cutting head near the mains
cable entry point. (Fig. 40)
Avoid direct eye contact with the laser beam,
and do not use on material that could reflect
the laser beam.

WARNING: Do not stare directly at the laser
beam. A hazard may exist if you deliberately
stare into the beam. Please observe all of
the following safety rules.
• The laser beam must not be deliberately
aimed at personnel and must be prevented
from being directed towards the eyes of a
person.
• Always ensure that the laser beam is used
only on work-pieces that have non-reflective
surfaces, i.e natural wood or matt surfaces
etc.
• Never exchange the laser module assembly
for a different type or class of laser.
• Repairs to the laser module must only be
conducted by Evolution Power Tools or their
authorized agent.
Note: The laser Guide can be a very useful
facility, particularly when a large number of
work-pieces are to be cut.
However the laser Guide should not be
regarded as a substitute for good conventional
planning and marking out.
LASER SAFETY
The laser guide line used in this product uses
a class 2 laser with a maximum power output
of 1mW at a wave length of between 650nm.
These lasers do not normally present an optical
hazard, although staring at the beam may
cause temporary flash blindness.
WARNING: Do not stare directly at the
laser beam. The laser must be used and
maintained as detailed in this manual.
Never intentionally aim the laser beam
at any person and prevent it from being
directed towards the eye, or an object other
than the work-piece. Always ensure that
the laser beam is directed at the work-piece
only when it is located on the mitre saw
table.
Never direct the laser beam onto any
bright, shiny reflective surface, as the laser
beam could be reflected back towards the
operator. Do not change the laser unit for
any other type.
Do not tamper with the laser unit. Only
touch the unit when making adjustments.
Repairs to the laser shall only be carried out
by an authorised service centre.
The laser guide line.
The projected laser guide line shows the path
of the blade during a cut. To use the laser guide
for a known angle (e.g. 45˚ mitre):
