Manual

BLADE SAFETY

WARNING: Rotating saw blades are extremely

dangerous and can cause serious injury and

amputation. Always keep fingers and hands

at least 150mm (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.

3.6 PERSONAL PROTECTIVE

EQUIPMENT 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.

3.7 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.

Do I need to wear hearing protection when using a mitre saw? Verified

Yes you should. Although the amount of noise produced by a mitre saw can vary between brands and models, long term exposure to loud noise can cause permanent hearing damage. That is why it is a good idea to wear hearing protection.

Can I store power tools in a shed or garage? Verified

In general, you can store power tools in a shed or garage, even if it sometimes freezes there. However, it is better for the lifespan of the power tool to store it in a dry place without major temperature fluctuations. In a shed or garage, differences in temperature can cause condensation to form, which can cause rust. In addition, tools that run on batteries last shorter and do not charge as well at very low temperatures. To be sure how your power tool needs to be stored, always thoroughly read the user manual.
