OPERATION GB
PRIOR TO OPERATION
1. Power source
Ensure that the power source to be utilized conforms to the
power requirements specified on the product nameplate.
2. Power switch
Ensure that the power switch is in the OFF position. If
the plug is connected to a power receptacle while the
power switch is in the ON position, the power tool will
start operating immediately, which could cause a serious
accident.
3. Extension cord
When the work area is removed from the power source,
use an extension cord of sufficient thickness and rated
capacity. The extension cord should be kept as short as
practicable.

4. Checking and installing the TCT Blades
Check the blade is a specified one and is not cracked,
broken or bent. Check the blade is installed securely. For
installation, refer to "Installing/removing TCT Blades".
INSTALLING/REMOVING TCT BLADES
1. Installation
(1) Unplug the saw.
(2) Lay the saw down with the blade arbor pointing upward.
(3) Open the lower guard (see fig2).
(4) Place blade "A" onto the flange with the "A" clearly
visable (see fig1).
(5) Align the holes on the blades with the drive pins on the
flange and securely fit the blade onto the flange (see fig4).
(6) Place the blade "B" onto the adaptor with the blade
"B" easily visible, then thread lock nut onto shaft. DO NOT
tighten (see fig3).
(7) Turn the blades so that the holes in both blades are
lined up.
(8) Place the pin (included with the wrench) into the lined
up holes.
(9) Tighten the lock nut clockwise and then remove the
pin from the blades (see fig4). This will allow the blades to
turn freely.
(10) Carefully turn blades with your hand to be sure they
easily turn in opposite directions.
2. Removal
(1) Unplug the saw and allow blades to cool.
(2) Rotate the blades until holes in both the blades are
aligned. Then place pin attached to the wrench through
the holes in the blade. Unscrew Lock Nut by rotation in
counterclockwise and remove (see fig4).
(3) Open the lower guard (see fig2).
(4) Lift up and remove Blade "B".
(5) Lift up and remove Blade "A" (see fig1).
CUTTING PROCEDURES
(1) Place this tool on the material to be cut and align the
premarked line and the TCT Blade.
(2) Turn on the switch when the TCT Blade is not touching
the material to be cut.
CAUTION
• Always check the TCT Blade before starting work.
Never use a TCT Blade which is cracked, broken or bent.
• Do not apply water or coolant to the TCT Blade.
• Start cutting only when TCT Blade reaches its maximum
speed.
• If the TCT Blade seizes or there is any abnormal noise,
immediately turn the power off.
• Never use the TCT Blade to cut zig zag or curved lines.
Never use the side surface of the TCT Blade. Never use to
perform inclination cutting.
• If excessive force is applied to the TCT Blade to make it
align with the premarked line during cutting, this might not
only overload the motor and cause burn damage but may
also overheat the TCT Blade and shorten the service life.
• Take care not to allow the power cord to come into
contact with the TCT Blade during operation.
• When the work is completed, turn the power off and
disconnect the power plug from the receptacle.
• Support the work piece in such a way that it is possible
to predict what will happen, and so that the cut remains
open while cutting.
• Check that the blade is not in contact with anything when
the machine is started.
• Always cut at the maximum speed.
• Start cutting smoothly, allowing the machine to work
without forcing or pressing the blade.
• Feed down the machine in line with the blade. Pressure
from the side can damage the blade and is very dangerous.
CUTTING CROSS SECTION MATERIALS
GB
The life span of the blade and the quality of the cutting
edge is dependant on vibrations being kept to a minimum.
For this reason the material must always be clamped in
place before work proceeds.
Flat bar iron
The blade is fed at an angle of 90º to the work surface (see
fig5).
Corner piece
The blade is fed diagonally through the work suface (see
fig6).
Rectangular pipe
The blade is fed from corner to corner (see fig7).
U-section
The blade is fed from corner to corner (see fig8).
Aluminium / Copper
The machine must always be equipped with the lubricating
device, to be used when cutting all kinds of aluminium and
copper (see fig9).
Shaped plate
The plate must always rest on three mounts, with one on
either side of the cut (see fig10).
Pipes
The blade is fed through the object until it reaches the
lower edge, angled as it goes so that the blade hits the
material at an angle of 90º (see fig11).

RAGE TWIN
Spiral tube and longitudinal cutting
Feed the blade through the material, so that the blade only
protudes through approx. 10mm, do not drive it as far as
the blades entire cutting edge. Then start to feed the blade
forwards or backwards (see fig12).
Thin plate
Only feed the blade down approx. 10mm. Then start cutting
(see fig13).
LUBRICANT INSTRUCTIONS
GB
(1) The blades are equipped with "Dry Cut" teeth. As a
rule these need not to be lubricated. However, in extreme
cutting conditions, cutting paste can be applied.
(2) When cutting Aluminium / Copper / Stainless Steel and
Cast Iron, the lubricating device must always be used.
(3) We recommend that you buy cutter paste in rod form,
available from your nearest dealer.
MAINTENANCE SECTION GB
1. Inspection the TCT Blade
A worn blade overloads the motor and reduces working
efficiency. Replace with a new one.
2. Inspecting the mounting screws
Regularly inspect all mounting screws and ensure that they
are properly tightened. Should any of the screws be lose,
retighten them immediately. Failure to do so could result in
serious hazard.
3. Maintenance of the motor
Exercise due care to ensure the winding does not become
damaged and/or wet with oil or water.
4. Keep tool clean and free from debris
Avoid using cleaning products, which include benzene,
trichloroethelene, chloride, or ammonia as these can
damage plastic parts.
5. In case of electrical or mechaniclal malfunction,
immediately switch off the tool and disconnect the plug.
6. Excessive sparking may indicate the presence of dirt in
the motor or won out carbon brushes. Check for wear and
replace when they reach 1/4" (6mm).
7. If the supply cord of this power tool is damaged, it must
be replaced by a specially prepared cord available through
the service organization.
8. For all other service take machine to your local dealr or at
Evolution Power Tools USA, Iowa, if bought in the USA.
