before the saw head is completely in the down
position. The braking action of the saw may cause
the saw head to be suddenly pulled downward,
causing a risk of injury.
NOTE: The above warning applies only for mitre
saws with a brake system.

BLADE SAFETY

WARNING: Rotating saw blades are extremely
dangerous and can cause serious injury and
amputation. Always keep fingers and hands
at least 100mm (6") away from the blade at all
times. Never attempt to retrieve sawn material
until the cutting head is in the raised position,
the guard is fully closed and the saw blade has
stopped rotating. Only use saw blades that
are recommended by the manufacturer and as
detailed in this manual and that comply with
the requirements of EN 847-1.
• Only use genuine Evolution blades
rated for this machine.
• Do not use saw blades that are damaged or
deformed as they could shatter and cause
serious injury to the operator or bystanders.
• If the table insert becomes damaged or worn
it must be replaced with an identical one
available from the manufacturer.
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
(3.6)
(PPE)
Hearing protection should be worn in order
to reduce the risk of induced hearing loss.
Eye protection should be worn in order to prevent
the possibility of the loss of sight from ejected
chippings.
Respiratory protection is also advised as some
wood and wood type products especially MDF
(Medium Density Fibreboard) can produce
dust that can be hazardous to your health. We
recommend the use of an approved face mask
with replaceable filters when using this machine
in addition to using the dust extraction facility.
Gloves should be worn when handling blades or
rough material. Heat resistant gloves should be
worn when handling metallic materials which may
be hot. It is recommended that saw blades should
be carried in a holder wherever practicable. It is
not advisable to wear gloves when operating the
mitre saw.

SAFE OPERATION

Always ensure that you have selected the correct
saw blade for the material being cut. Do not use
this mitre saw to cut materials other than those
specified in this Instruction Manual.
When transporting a mitre saw ensure that the
cutting head is locked in the 90° down position
(if a sliding mitre saw ensure that the slide bars

are locked). Lift the machine by gripping the outer
edges of the base with both hands (if a sliding
mitre saw, transport using the handles provided).
Under no circumstances shall the machine be
lifted or transported using the retractable guard
or any part of its operating mechanism.
Bystanders and other colleagues must be kept
at a safe distance from this saw. Cut debris can,
in some circumstances, be ejected forcibly from
the machine, posing a safety hazard to people
standing nearby.
Before each use check the operation of the
retractable guard and its operating mechanism
ensuring that there is no damage, and that all
moving parts operate smoothly and correctly.
Keep the work bench and floor area clear of all
debris including sawdust, chips and off-cuts.
Always check and ensure that the speed marked
on the saw blade is at least equal to the no
load speed marked on the mitre saw. Under no
circumstances shall a saw blade be used that is
marked with a speed that is less than the no-load
speed marked on the mitre saw.
Where it is necessary to use spacer or reducing
rings these must be suitable for the intended
purpose and only as recommended by the
manufacturer.
If the mitre saw is fitted with a laser it shall not
be replaced with a different type. If the laser fails
to operate it shall be repaired or replaced by the
manufacturer or authorised agent.
The saw blade shall only be replaced as detailed in
this instruction manual.
Never attempt to retrieve off-cuts or any other
part of the work-piece until the cutting head is in
the raised position, the guard is fully closed and
the saw blade has stopped rotating.
PERFORM CUTS
CORRECTLY & SAFELY
Wherever practicable always secure the
work-piece to the saw table using the work clamp
where provided.
Always ensure that before each cut the mitre
saw is mounted in a stable position. If needed
the mitre saw can be mounted on a wooden
base or work bench or attached to a mitre saw
stand as detailed in this instruction manual. Long
work-pieces should be supported on the work
supports provided or on appropriate additional
work supports.

WARNING: The operation of any mitre
saw can result in foreign objects being thrown
towards your eyes, which could result in severe
