INSERTING THE CARRIAGE SLIDE
IMPORTANT: If for any reason (transit damage,
unpacking error, operator mistake, etc.) the
locating lugs at the tip of the carriage slide
arms have been ‘tripped’, the sliding carriage
cannot be fitted into the bevel neck or onto the
cutting head.
The locating lugs (Fig.11) must be reset, if
either or both have been ‘tripped’ prematurely.
RESETTING THE LOCATING LUGS
• Gently push the protruding lug into the
Carriage arm.
• Gently ease the locating lug deployment plunger
forward by using a flat bladed screwdriver (not
supplied) as a lever.
(Fig. 12)
The carriage slides two
(2)
arms should be inserted
through the two linear bearings contained within
the bevel neck.
The carriage slide should be inserted from the back
ensuring that the ‘Evolution’ logo is the correct way
up.
(Fig. 9)
• Slide the sliding carriage arms through
the bevel neck for approximately half of
their length.
• Screw the carriage slide locking screw into the
threaded hole above the right hand arm of the
carriage slide.
(Fig. 10)
Note:
Ensure that the anti-vibration spring is fitted
underneath the hand knob before fitting the
locking screw into its service position.
• Tighten the locking screw to lock the sliding
carriage into the desired position.
ATTACHING THE CUTTING HEAD
• Align the cutting head with the two
(2)
sliding
carriage arms.
(Fig. 13a)
• Push the cutting head onto the Carriage arms
firmly until the ‘click’ of the Locating Lugs
deploying is heard.
(Fig. 13b)
Note:
The deployed locating lugs must be fully
visible when viewed from the side of the cutting
head.
(Figs. 14a, 14b, 14c)
The Locating Lugs are coloured green to make
identification easy.
FITTING THE SLIDE RAIL COVER:
Note:
Make sure the cutting head is in the down
right position before proceeding.
• Remove Slide Locking Screw and spring
(Fig. 15)
.
• With the saw’s Cutting Head facing towards you,
align the Slide Rail Cover’s cut out channel over
the right rail.
• Insert the single tab into the recess between the
two rails on the rear of the Cutting Head.
• Lower the Slide Rail Cover onto the rails
and click the two rear tabs into place on
the rear Carry Handle.
• Re-fit the Slide Locking Screw and spring.
THE MACHINE TABLE EXTENSIONS (Fig. 16)
Note:
Two
(2)
machine table extension pieces are
provided with this machine. They are ‘handed’, one
being for the right hand side, and one for the left
hand side.
TO FIT THE TABLE EXTENSIONS:
• Carefully examine the table extension pieces to
determine which is for the right hand side and
which is for the left hand side.
• Remove the socket headed screws
(Fig. 17)
from
the table using the hex key provided.
• Position the relevant Extension piece onto the
table and secure it into its service position using
the socket headed screws.
• Repeat for the second Extension piece.
ROUTING THE POWER CABLE
WARNING: This machine is equipped with a
mains cable and a moulded plug which satisfies
the regulations of the receiving country. This
cable and plug, if damaged, should only be
replaced with genuine Evolution replacement
parts and be fitted by a competent technician.
• Ensure that the cutting head is in the
down position.
• Ensure that the carriage slide is in its most
forward position and locked.
(Fig. 18)
From the motor the mains cable should be routed
through the front cable guide and then be routed
rearwards
(Fig. 19).
The cable should be inserted into the rear
cable guide/clamp. Ensure the Cable Grip
Component is inside the cable guide when the
cable passes through.

commission this machine.
By assembling this machine the owner/
operator will gain valuable insight into its
many advanced features. This should enable
the operator to exploit the machines full
potential once it is commissioned.
Note:
Study the diagrams showing the

The blade and some other smaller parts also
need to be fitted by the owner/operator.
Note:
A safety check must be carried out
once assembly is completed and before the
machine is used - see page 34.
WARNING: Do not under any circumstances
plug the cutting head into the power supply
and try to use it as a hand held circular saw.
KNOW THE PARTS
There are four
(4)
main parts to be assembled
(including the blade), and two
(2)
other smaller
parts to be connected. Additionally the blade
(supplied) will need to be fitted.
• The rotary base and bevel neck
(Fig. 2)
• The carriage slides
(Fig. 3)
• The cutting head (In The ‘locked down Position
as Removed from the Packaging)
(Fig. 4)
• The Blade
(Fig. 5)
Note:

It must only be fitted after the assemble process is
completed and the machine has been subjected to
the Assembly Safety Checks - see page 34.
THE MITRE LOCKING KNOB
(Fig. 6)
The threaded spigot of the Mitre Locking Knob
