manufacturers if a non-Evolution circular saw
or cutting track is to be used.
Before the first use of the Evolution Cutting
Track the Splinter Guard Strip (Fig. 21)
match the saw and blade.
To match saw to track:
• Fully assemble the Cutting Track.
• Refer to the section entitled 'Track
Positioning and Clamping' . Clamp the track
to an appropriate piece of spare or scrap
material.
• Set the saw blade to a depth suitable for the
scrap workpiece selected.
• Ensure that no obstructions are present
beneath the path of the blade.
• Refer to the section 'Track Positioning and
Clamping' . Place the circular saw correctly
on the track.
• Start the motor and allow it to reach full
speed.
• Smoothly and slowly push the circular saw
along the full length of the track until the
blade has cut through the entire length of
the Splinter Guard Strip.
Note: This process will match a specific saw to
a specific track.
If a different saw is used on such a prepared
track, the Splinter Guard Strip may not provide
the same level of protection as the dedicated
saw to track configuration.
Note: The Splinter Guard Strip should be
regarded as a consumable item. Over time
it will wear and abrade and will therefore
need replacing. It may also need replacing if a
different circular saw or saw blade (one with a
different kerf width) from the original dedicated
configuration is to be used.

intervals for damage or abrasion caused by 'wear
and tear' . Replace the strip if any damage or
significant wear is apparent.
Replacement strips are available. Consult
needs to
your supplier or contact Evolution using the
appropriate helpline.
The Replaceable Splinter Guard Strip supplied
is a direct substitution to the fitted original.
Simply pull the old strip gently from the track
and replace with the new strip.
Note: If a new strip is fitted, the Saw to Track
matching process must be repeated.
EVOLUTION TRACK CLAMPS
The Evolution Speed Clamp
purpose designed to work with the Evolution
Cutting Track.
Note: Extra clamps can be purchased from
Evolution Power Tools or your local supplier.
Evolution clamps fit into and can slide along
the 'T' slots found on the under surface of the
alloy extrusions.
This enables the operator to locate the clamps
(one is required at each end of the track) in
positions which afford the maximum security,
and rigidity of the Cutting Track to the
workpiece.
