Machine Fence Alignment; Mitre Angle Pointer Adjustment; The Laser; Laser Safety - Evolution R185SMS Instructions Originales

bevel or compound angles are selected to provide
clearance for the moving cutting head and blade
as a cut is made.
To adjust the sliding fence:
• Loosen the thumbscrew. (Fig. 34)
• Slide the upper section of the Fence leftwards
to the required position and tighten the
thumbscrew.
• Conduct a 'dry run' with the power off to confirm
that there is no interference between moving
parts as the cutting head and blade are lowered
to make a sliding cut.

MACHINE FENCE ALIGNMENT

The Fence must be aligned at 90˚ (square) to a
correctly installed blade. The Rotary table must be
set at '0˚' mitre angle.
The Fence is fastened to the table with three (3)
socket head Hex screws (Fig. 35), one (1) to the
left hand side and two (2) to the right hand side.
All three (3) are located through elongated slots
machined into the fence casting.
• Ensure that the cutting head is in the
locked down position with the latching pin
fully engaged.
• Place a set square on the table with one edge
against the Fence and the other edge against
the Blade (avoiding the TCT tips). (Fig. 36)
• If adjustment is necessary, loosen the three (3)
Fence adjustment screws using a Hex Key.
• Re-position the Fence in its elongated slots until
alignment is achieved.
• Securely tighten the socket head Hex screws.

Mitre Angle Pointer Adjustment

Note: There are dual mitre angle scales cast
into the front of the machines base. A small
pointer attached to the rotary table indicates the
angle selected.
If necessary, the pointer can be repositioned by
loosening its fastening screw using a #2 Phillips
screwdriver. Adjust as necessary, and then securely
tighten the fixing screw. (Fig. 37)

THE LASER (Supplied with 047-0001A,
047-0002A, 047-0004)
This machine is equipped with a laser cutting
guide. This allows the operator to preview the path
of the blade through the work-piece. Avoid direct
eye contact with the laser beam.
WARNING: Do not stare directly at the laser
beam. A hazard may exist if you deliberately
stare into the beam. Please observe all of the
following safety rules.
• The laser beam must not be deliberately aimed
at personnel and must be prevented from being
directed towards the eyes of a person.
• Never exchange the laser module assembly for a
different type or class of laser.
• Repairs to the laser module must only be
conducted by Evolution Power Tools or their
authorized agent.
Note: The laser guide can be a very useful facility,
particularly when a large number of work-pieces
are to be cut.
However the laser Guide should not be regarded
as a substitute for good conventional planning
and marking out.

LASER SAFETY

The laser guide line used in this product uses a
class 2 laser with a maximum power output of
1mW at a wave length of 650nm. These lasers do
not normally present an optical hazard, although
staring at the beam may cause temporary flash
blindness.
WARNING: Do not stare directly at the laser
beam. The laser must be used and maintained as
detailed in this manual. Never intentionally aim
the laser beam at any person and prevent it from
being directed towards the eye, or an object other
than the work-piece. Always ensure that the laser
beam is directed at the work-piece only when it is
located on the mitre saw table. Do not change the
laser unit for any other type. Do not tamper with
the laser unit. Only touch the unit when making
adjustments. Repairs to the laser shall only be
carried out by an authorised service centre.
