Repositioning The Rear Vice Jaw - Evolution RAGE2 Traduction D'original

• Remove the arbor screw, washer and outer blade flange and
store safely for future installation.
• Retract the lower blade guard up into the upper blade guard
by rotating it by hand. (Fig. 5)
• Remove the blade, leaving the inner blade flange
in its service position.
(5.7) installing a Blade:
• Ensure that all components are free from dirt and debris.
• Install the blade onto the inner blade flange and arbor,
ensuring that the direction and rotation arrow on the
Fig. 5
blade matches the direction of arrow rotation found on the
machines upper blade guard. (Fig. 6)
• Reinstall the outer blade flange, washer and arbor screw.
• Lock the arbor by pressing the arbor lock button.
• Tighten the arbor screw using the 8mm Hex Key.
• Return the arbor guard to its service position and tighten the
cross head screw.
• Check that the arbor lock has been released by rotating the
blade by hand.
• Ensure that the Hex Key is removed from the arbor screw and
is safely stored for future use.
• Check the installation, and particularly the operation of the
Fig. 6
retractable lower blade guards by lowering and raising the
Cutting Head a few times.
(5.8) wArNiNg: After installing a new blade, always run the
machine, without load, for a couple of minutes. Stand away
from the blade. If the blade were to contain an undetected
flaw, it could shatter during this trial run.

Cutting head Downward Travel Adjustment
To prevent the blade from contacting any part of the machines
metal base the downward travel of the Cutting Head can
be adjusted.
Lower the Cutting Head and check for any
blade contact with the machines base.

if the downward travel of the
Cutting head needs to be adjusted:
• Loosen the locknut on the downward travel
stop screw. (Fig. 7)
• Turn the adjusting screw (Fig. 7) out (counter-clockwise)
to decrease the downwards travel of the Cutting Head.
• Turn the adjusting screw in (clockwise) to increase the
downwards travel of the Cutting Head.
• Tighten the adjustment screw locknut when satisfactory
travel of the Cutting Head is achieved.

Note: The rear vice jaw can be turned through 45 .
0
The rear vice jaw is factory set at 0 0 (at 90 0 to the blade) so that
the blade cuts squarely across material positioned in the vice.
For angled cuts, the rear vice jaw can be swung through (up to)
45 0 , with a protractor scale being included on the vice jaw for
ease and accuracy of setting. (>5.10)
To angle the rear vice jaw:
• Loosen the two (2) M10 socket headed screws (Fig. 8)
• Turn the rear vice jaw to the required angle.
• Tighten the socket headed screws securely
using the supplied hex key.

The rear vice jaw can be removed from the
machines base and repositioned. (Fig.9)
To reposition:
• Remove the two (2) M10 socket headed screws
and any associated washers.
• Reposition the rear vice jaw; there are two (2) possible
positions available because of the three (3) threaded
holes in the machines base.
• Replace socket headed screws into their new service
positions. Ensure that all plain and locking washers
are correctly positioned.
Repositioning the rear vice jaw to the rearmost position will
enable wider pieces of material to be cut than is possible with
the rear vice jaw in the forward position.
