LED BLADE GUIDE LINE
This machine is fitted with a LED light in the upper guard. This
casts a shadow of the blade onto the workpiece. This provides
the user with a clear cut line, and the LED illuminates the cutting
area. This feature requires no user alignment.
ELECTRONIC BRAKE
This machine is fitted with an electronic brake integral to the
motor housing. This slows the blade in a couple of seconds
instead of allowing the blade to continue spinning until it comes
to a natural stop.
ADVANCED OVERLOAD SYSTEM
There is an overload warning light,
(2)
, on the top of the
handle, which illuminates green when connected to the power
supply and used under normal cutting conditions. The LED
will illuminate red as a warning when the motor is at risk of
overheating. If the overload warning lamp illuminates red, stop
cutting and allow to cool down until the overload LED returns to
green. Continuing to use the tool after the LED is illuminated red
could cause irreparable damage.
CHECKING AND REPLACING THE CARBON BRUSHES
WARNING:
Disconnect the machine from the power
supply before attempting to check or replace the
Carbon Brushes.
To remove the brushes:
Using a screw driver unscrew the plastic caps found at the back
of the motor housing,
(Fig.15)
. Be careful as the caps are spring-
loaded. Withdraw the brushes with their springs.
Replace both carbon brushes if either has less than 6mm length
of carbon remaining, or if the spring or wire is damaged or
burned. Only replace with similar brushes and replace the caps.
Run the machines motor without load for approximately 5
minutes. This will help the new brushes to ‘bed-in’ and ensure
that the motor runs efficiently.
Note:
Used but serviceable brushes can be replaced. These must
be returned to their original service position. They must also be
inserted the same way round as found prior to their removal
from the machine.
TRACK ADAPTOR ASSEMBLY
An attachable track adaptor is available to purchase separately
from Evolution. This device enables effortless straight line cutting
when used in conjunction with a separately available track.
