WARNING:
It is potentially dangerous to install, and try
to use the Edge Guide with the arm passing through only
one (1) of the machined rectangular base plate slots.
CUTTING DEPTH ADJUSTMENT
•
Loosen the Depth Adjustment Locking Mechanism by
pulling the operating lever,
(5)(Fig.10)
, upwards.
•
Adjust/re-position the base plate relative to the saw body
by rotating about pivot, to give the required cutting
depth (the amount by which the blade protrudes through
the base plate).
Note:
A depth gauge is attached to the base plate. Alignment
of the operating lever,
(5)
, with the corresponding required
depth,
(Fig.11)
, can aid rapid setting.
Tighten the Depth Adjustment Locking Mechanism by pushing
the operating lever, downwards to securely lock in the machine
in the required position.
As the cutting depth is altered the position of the front of the
blade relative to the base plate will vary. As an aid to cutting
the base plate is fitted with a scale,
(8) (Fig.12)
, on which the
position of the front of the blade can be seen. This will be in line
with the reading that corresponds to cutting depth shown on
the depth gauge.
Note:
Although this method is useful for rapid depth setting, it
should always be regarded as a guide to the setting achieved.
If a very precise depth of cut is required, then the blade setting
should be checked with an engineer’s precision ruler (not
supplied) or similar and adjusted accordingly.
•
In most cases the cutting depth should be set at the
thickness of the material to be cut, plus approximately
3mm.
•
Tighten the Depth Adjustment Locking Mechanism by
pushing the operating lever, downwards to securely lock
in the machine in the required position.
OPERATING ADVICE (PRE OPERATION CHECKS)
Note:
As all operating environments will be unique and diverse,
Evolution Power Tools offers the following general advice on
safe operational procedures and practices for the consideration
of the operator.
This advice cannot be exhaustive as Evolution has no influence
on the type of workshops or working environments in which
these machines may be used. We recommend that the
operator seeks advice from a competent authority or the
workshop supervisor if they are unsure of any aspect of using
these machines. It is important that routine safety checks are
