1" (25.4Mm) Arbor Blades; 5/8" (16Mm) Arbor Blades; Checking & Adjusting; Bevel Angles - Evolution R255 SMS Notice Originale

• Lock the arbor and tighten the arbor
screw using moderate force, but do
not overtighten.
• Ensure the Hex Key is removed and the
arbor lock has released before proceeding.
• Ensure the blade guard is fully functional
before using the machine.
A dual-sided inner-flange enables you to safely
fit Evolution multi-material cutting blades with
a 1" (25.4mm) arbor and by 'reversing' this dual-
sided inner-flange, you can also safely fit saw
blades with a 5/8" (16mm) arbor.
Note: Evolution Multi-material cutting blades
are to be used with an Evolution power tool
saw only.

1" (25.4mm) ARBOR BLADES

WARNING: Only carry out this operation with the
machine disconnected from the mains supply.
WARNING: You must ensure the dual-sided
inner flange 1" side is visible to you. (Fig. 27a)
Do not fit a 5/8" (16mm) arbor blade when the
inner-flange is in this configuration.
• The dual-sided inner-flange has a 1"
(25.4mm) arbor ring elevation, indicated
by the thick black line (Fig. 27a) on the left
side of the dual sided blade flange.
• The 1" (25.4mm) ring elevation is required to
point 'outwards' from the motor when fitting
a 1" (25.4mm) arbor blade, as this provides a
1" (25.4mm) arbor.

5/8" (16mm) ARBOR BLADES

WARNING: Only carry out this operation with the
machine disconnected from the mains supply.
WARNING: You must ensure the dual-sided
inner flange 5/8" side is visible to you. (Fig. 27b)
Do not fit a 1" (25.4mm) arbor blade when
the inner-flange is in this configuration.
• The dual-sided inner-flange has a 1"
(25.4mm) arbor ring elevation, indicated
by the thick black line (Fig. 27b) on the
right side of the dual sided blade flange.
• When 'reversed' , the 1" (25.4mm) ring elevation
will be pointing 'inwards' to the motor. This
now provides a 5/8" (16mm) arbor.
CHECKING AND ADJUSTING
OF THE PRECISION ANGLES
Note: This machine has been accurately
set up and adjusted at the factory. If it is
suspected that some of the precision angles
have been lost (due perhaps to normal
workshop attrition) they can be reset by
following the procedure outlined below.
Note: Several checks/adjustments are possible
on this machine. The operator will require a set
square (not supplied) to carry out these checks
and adjustments.
WARNING: Checks/adjustments must
only be conducted with the machine
disconnected from the power supply.
BEVEL ANGLES (0˚ & 45˚)
0˚ Bevel Stop Adjustment
Ensure that the cutting head is in the locked
down position with the latching pin fully
engaged in its socket.
Ensure that the cutting head is upright,
against its stop and the bevel pointer is
indicating 0˚ on the scale. (Fig. 28)
Place the set square on the table with one
edge against the table and the other edge
against the blade (avoiding the TCT tips).
(Fig. 29)
If the blade is blade is not at 90 degrees
(square) with the rotary table, then
adjustment maybe required.
• Loosen the bevel lock handle and tilt the
cutting head to the left.
• Loosen the locknut on the Bevel Angle
adjustment screw. (Fig. 30)
• Use a Hex Key to turn the screw in or out to
adjust the blade angle.
• Return the cutting head to its upright
position and recheck the angular alignment
against the set square.
• Repeat the above steps until correct angular
alignment is achieved.
• Tighten the Bevel Angle Adjustment
locknut securely.
