NOTE: The blade teeth should always point downward at the
front of the saw.
• Install the blade flange, washer and arbor screw.
• Lock the arbor and tighten the arbor screw using moderate
force, but do not overtighten.
• Replace the guard operating arm and its retaining clip. (Fig. 41)
• Ensure the Hex Key is removed and the arbor lock has
released before operating.
• Ensure the blade guard is fully functional before using the
machine.

If required, Blade Bore Reducing Inserts should only be used in
accordance with the manufacturers instructions.
USE OF OPTIONAL EVOLUTION ACCESSORIES
Not supplied as original equipment. All accessories
can be purchased from Evolution Power Tools.
See 'Additional Accessories' section.
DUST BAG
Fig. 42
A Dust Bag can be fitted to the extraction port at the rear of
the machine. The Dust Bag is for use when cutting wooden
materials only.
• Slide the Dust Bag over the dust extraction port, ensuring
that the spring clip grips the port holding the Dust Bag
securely in place. (Fig. 42)
NOTE: For operational efficiency empty the Dust Bag when it
becomes 2/3 full. Dispose of the contents of the Dust Bag in an
environmentally responsible way. It may be necessary to wear a
dust mask when emptying the Dust Bag.
NOTE: A workshop vacuum extraction machine can be
attached to the dust extraction port if required. Follow the
manufacturers instructions if such a machine is fitted.
WARNING: Do not use the Dust Bag when cutting metallic
materials.
EXTRACTION PORT BLANKING PLUG
Use the blanking plug in place of the dust bag when cutting
steel based materials.

EXTRACTION PORT ADAPTOR TUBE
Use the Adaptor Tube to connect the extraction port of the
machine to suitable commercial workshop vacum extraction
equipment (not supplied) which have Ø30mm internal bore
hoses or inlet ports.
WORKPIECE SUPPORT BARS
(Fig. 43a & 43b)
Workpiece Support Bars can be fitted to either or both sides of
the machines base as required.
• Right Hand side. Loosen the support retaining screw located in
the top front of the machines base.
• Insert the workpiece supports bars into the retaining holes in
the base. Push fully home to ensure positive location.
NOTE: Approximately 75mm (2-19/20") of the, (Fig. 43a)
Workpiece Support Bar should slide into the base to provide
positive location.
• Tighten the retaining screw. (Fig. 43b)
• Repeat the above for the Left Hand side.
To remove a Workpiece Support Bar, simply loosen the relevant
retaining screw and slide the Workpiece Support Bar from the
machine. Store safely for future use.
THE REPEAT STOP
(Fig. 44)
The use of the Repeat Stop can greatly aid the operator when
conducting repetitive cutting operations. When many pieces
of material all cut to the same length are required, use of the
Repeat Stop can assist accuracy and efficiency.
Fitting the Repeat Stop
• Loosen the Repeat Stop thumb screws sufficiently to allow
the arms of the Workpiece Support Bar to slide through the
holes in the Repeat Stop.
• Position the Repeat Stop approximately half way along the
Workpiece Support Bar, and tighten the thumb screws to
minimize any movement.
• Attach the Workpiece Support Bar to the machine base as
previously detailed.
