NOTE: It is recommended that all instructions are always read
before operating.
PERMANENTLY MOUNTING THE MITRE SAW
To reduce the risk of injury from unexpected saw movement,
place the saw in the desired location either on a workbench
or other suitable machine stand. The base of the saw has four
mounting holes through which suitable bolts (not supplied)
can be placed to secure the miter saw. If the saw is to be used
in one location, permanently fasten it to the workbench using
appropriate fastenings (not supplied). Use locking washers and
nuts on the underside of the workbench. (Fig. 1)
To avoid injury from ying debris, position the saw so
that other people or bystanders cannot stand too close
(or behind) it.
Locate the saw on a rm, level surface where there is plenty
of room for handling and properly supporting the workpiece.
Support the saw so the machine table is level and the saw
does not rock.
Bolt or clamp the saw securely to its support stand or
workbench.
FOR PORTABLE USE:
Mount the saw on a 18mm thick piece of plywood or
MDF (800mm x 500mm (31-1/2” x 19-7/10”) min size
recommended) using appropriate fastenings (not supplied).
It may be necessary to countersink the washers, nuts, etc. to
the underside of the plywood or MDF mounting board to
avoid an uneven work surface.
Use G-clamps to attach the mounting board to the work
surface. (Fig. 2)
NOTE: Some machines are tted with a rear stabilizing arm
found just below the Bevel Pivot.
If so tted, this arm should be deployed/withdrawn from the
base, particularly if the machine is to be used free standing
on a work bench. (Fig. 3). This arm will provide extra stability
to prevent the machine from toppling in the event of sudden
release of the Cutting Head.

Conduct a dry run’ with the power disconnected. Ensure that the
Hold Down Clamp does not interfere with the path of the blade, or
with the path of any other part of the Cutting Head as it is lowered
THE LASER
This machine is equipped with a Laser Cutting Guide. This allows
the operator to preview the path of the blade through the
workpiece. The ON/OFF switch for the Laser Guide is positioned
on the right hand side of the machine, below the transmission
casing. (Fig 5)
Avoid direct eye contact with the laser beam, and do not use on
material that could reect the laser beam.
Never look into the laser beam. Direct laser beam may injure
your eyes.
WARNING: Do not stare directly at the laser beam.
A hazard may exist if you deliberately stare into the beam.
Please observe all of the following safety rules.
The laser beam must not be deliberately aimed at personnel
and must be prevented from being directed towards the eyes
of a person.
Always ensure that the laser beam is used only on workpieces
that have non-reective surfaces, i.e natural wood or matt
surfaces etc.
Never exchange the laser module assembly for a dierent
type or class of laser.
Repairs to the laser module must only be conducted by
Evolution Power Tools or their authorized agent.

LASER ADJUSTMENT
WARNING: At no time during this procedure should the motor
be started.
To check laser alignment:
Place a piece of cardboard, or similar, onto the rotary table of
the machine.
With the carriage slide in the rearmost position, lower the Cutting
Head so that a blade tooth makes a mark in the cardboard.
Allow the Cutting Head to rise, and then repeat the above
with the carriage slide in an approximate mid- way position.
Again repeat, but with the carriage slide moved to its most
forward position.
With the Cutting Head raised, turn on the laser and slide
the Cutting Head backwards and forwards to observe if the
projected laser beam is in line with the marks previously made:
Beam is aligned with the marks =
No further action required.
Beam is not parallel with the marks =
Follow section A
Beam is parallel but not aligned with the marks =
Proceed to B
A. If the laser beam is not parallel to the marks proceed as follows:
Untighten the clamping screw (Fig. 6, a)
Carefully rotate the laser module, (Fig. 6, b) until the line is
parallel with the marks in the cardboard.
Re-tighten the clamping screw.
Recheck the alignment.
B. If the laser beam is parallel with the marks, but not going
through them:
Slacken the two screws. (Fig. 7, c)
The laser mounting block can now be moved sideways to
align the laser beam with the marks made in the cardboard.
When the laser beam is in the correct place,
re-tighten the two screws.
Repeat procedure ‘A’ to check alignment.
NOTE: The above adjustments & alignments should be checked
on a regular basis to ensure laser accuracy.

NOTE: The following WARNING labels may be found on this
machine:
LASER RADIATION DO NOT STARE INTO THE
BEAM
CLASS 2 LASER PRODUCT
CLASS 2 LASER PRODUCT LASER RADIATION AVOID
DIRECT EYE CONTACT LASER SAFETY
The Laser guide line used in this product uses a class II Laser
with a maximum power output of 1.5mW at a wave length of
between 635 and 670nm. These lasers do not normally present
an optical hazard, although staring at the beam may cause
temporary ash blindness.
WARNING: Do not stare directly at the Laser beam. The laser
must be used and maintained as detailed in this manual. Never
intentionally aim the laser beam at any person and prevent it
from being directed towards the eye, or an object other than
the workpiece. Always ensure that the laser beam is directed at
the workpiece only when it is located on the mitre saw table.
Never direct the laser beam onto any bright, shiny reective
surface, as the laser beam could be reected back towards the
operator. Do not change the laser unit for any other type.
Do not tamper with the laser unit. Only touch the unit when
making adjustments. Repairs to the laser shall only be carried
out by an authorised service centre.
THE LASER GUIDE LINE
The projected laser guide line shows the path of the blade
during a cut.
To use the laser guide for a known angle (e.g. 45
0
):
Mark the cut required on the workpiece using a pencil etc.
Set the saw to the cutting angle required (45
0
) and lock into
position using the mitre locking handle and/or the positive
stop locking lever.
Switch on the laser beam.
Position the workpiece on the rotary table and against the fence.
Slide the workpiece into position until the pencil line on the
workpiece and the projected laser line exactly match.
Clamp the workpiece into position using the hold down clamp.
Proceed to make the cut.

To use the laser guide for an unknown angle:
Mark the position of the cut to be made on the workpiece
using a pencil etc.
Place the workpiece on the rotary table and against the fence.
Adjust the mitre saw to give the approximate angle of cut.
Do not tighten the mitre lock handle at this stage.
Slowly slide the workpiece backwards and forwards along
the fence, whilst at the same time slowly adjusting the angle
of the rotary table.
Stop when the projected laser line and pencil line on the
workpiece match exactly.
Tighten the mitre lock handle to lock the rotary table in place.
Secure the workpiece with a hold down clamp.
Recheck the alignment.
When satised that alignment is accurate proceed to make
the cut.
The Laser Lens cap (if tted)
If tted the laser lens cap is a simple push t onto the front of
the laser unit.
If it becomes damaged or opaque for any reason it can be replaced.
Carefully pull the lens from the laser unit and replace with a new lens.
DEPTH STOP (Fig. 8)
Use of the depth stop allows the operator to cut slots in the
workpiece.
The downward travel of the Cutting Head can be set so that
the saw blade does not completely cut through the workpiece.
NOTE: When using the Depth Stop it is advisable that the depth
of cut is checked using a scrap piece of timber to ensure that
the slot cut is correct.
By making a cut in the workpiece, and then repeating the cut
but with the workpiece slightly repositioned to the left or right,
it is possible to perform trenching cuts.
To use the depth stop:
Loosen the locking wing nut. (a)
Adjust the thumb knob (b) to limit the saw heads travel to
the required depth.
Once set to the desired depth, tighten the wing nut (a)
against the retaining bracket to lock the depth stop and
ensure that there is no movement.
