ADJUSTABLE BLADE GUARD
(R300 DCT+ and R300 DCT)
The blade guard on these machines is adjustable. It should be
positioned to provide the operator with the best combination
of personal protection and visibility of the cutting line.
Note: Machines R255 DCT and R230 DCT are equipped with
fixed blade guards.
To adjust the Blade Guard:
WARNING: Disconnect the machine from the power supply
before repositioning the blade guard.
• Operate the blade guard locking system by pulling the
locking pin upwards. (Fig. 4)
• Rotate the blade guard to the optimum position using the
blade guard rotation handle. (Fig. 5)
• Release the locking pin.
• Check the security of the blade guard.
DUST SUPPRESSION SYSTEM
(Machine R300 DCT+)
R300 DCT+ is fitted with a dust suppression system. This system
will deliver a jet of water at equal pressure and volume to both
sides of the blade.
Note: R300 DCT is pre- prepared and can be retro fitted with
the dust suppression system. Contact your supplier or access
the Evolution Helpline for further details.
To use the dust suppression system:
• Connect a hose from a water supply to the saw, the water
supply could be a mains water tap or an Evolution Water
Bottle system.
• Push the hose connector (Fig. 6a) on to the Water Valve
hose adaptor (Fig. 6b) there will be a click and the hose
connector will be secured.
• Once connected to the water supply pressurise the water
either by pumping the bottle or turning on the mains tap.
• Open the water valve to feed water to the blade. The rate
of flow can be adjusted by the water valve on the saw.
(Fig. 6c)
• After finishing the cut, switch off the machine, turn the
water valve (3) off to stop flow of water to the blade.
• Disconnect the saw from the water supply by pushing back
the hose connector release collar.
Note: Adjust the system so that just enough water is supplied
to adequately suppress the dust created by the cutting process.
