Laser Adjustment - Evolution R185 SMS Instrucciones Originales

the blade during a cut. To use the laser guide for a
known angle (e.g. 45˚ mitre):
• Mark the cut required on the work-piece using
a pencil, etc.
• Set the saw to the cutting angle required (e.g.
45˚) and lock into position using the mitre locking
handle and/or the positive stop locking lever.
• Switch on the laser beam.
• Position the work-piece on the rotary table and
against the fence.
• Slide the work-piece into position until the
pencil line on the work-piece and the projected
laser line exactly match.
• Clamp the work-piece 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
work-piece using a pencil etc.
• Place the work-piece 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 work-piece 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 work-piece match exactly.
• Tighten the mitre lock handle to lock the rotary
table in place.
• Secure the work-piece with a hold down clamp.
• Recheck the alignment.
• When satisfied that alignment is accurate
proceed to make the cut.

LASER ADJUSTMENT

WARNING: At no time during this procedure
should the motor be started.
Note: When the head of the saw is raised, the laser
should fall directly onto the cutting line. When the
head of the saw is lowered towards the material
the laser line may wander off from the cutting line.
This does not call for the laser to be adjusted and
will not affect the cut as the laser need only align
with the cutting line whilst the head of the saw is
in the raised position.

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, 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 parallel but not aligned with the marks
= Follow section A
• Beam is not parallel with the marks
= Proceed to section B
A. If the laser beam is parallel with the marks, but
not going through them:
• Using a cross head screwdriver, turn the
adjustment screw (Fig. 38) clockwise or
counter clockwise until the laser falls directly
onto the marks.
B. If the laser beam is not parallel to the marks
proceed as follows:
• Remove the laser module cover by loosening the
retaining screw (Fig. 39)
• Using a pair of pliers, or similar, grasp the laser
module body (fig. 40) and turn clockwise or
counter clockwise until the laser becomes
parallel with the cutting marks.
• Repeat procedure 'A' to check alignment.
• Once alignment is complete, re-fit the laser
module cover.
Note: Do not adjust any other screw found under
the laser module cover.
Note: The above adjustments & alignments should
be checked on a regular basis to ensure laser
accuracy.
