INSTALLING/REMOVING A BLADE
(10.1)
WARNING: Use only genuine Evolution blades (or those
approved by Evolution Power Tools), which are designed for
use in these machines. Ensure that the maximum speed of the
blade is compatible with the machine.
Only perform this operation with the machine disconnected

Note: It is recommended that the operator considers wearing
protective gloves when handling the blade during installation
or when changing the machines blade.
• Locate the supplied Blade Change Hex Key which is housed
in the onboard storage facility (similarly positioned on all
machines). (Fig. 1)
• Place saw on a level, secure surface.
Note: All machines can, with care, be balanced on the flat end
of the motor housing casing, (Fig. 2) making access to the
blade and blade fixings very convenient.
• Locate the machines arbor lock button (which is similarly
positioned on all machines). Lock the machines arbor by
operating the arbor lock button. (Fig. 3)
Note: Slowly rotating the blade by hand, whilst gently pressing
the arbor lock button will aid arbor lock engagement.
• Using the Hex Key, loosen and remove the arbor socket
headed screw, associated fixings, and outer blade drive
flange. (Fig. 4)
Note: The socket headed arbor screw is equipped with a
standard screw thread. Turn the screw clockwise to tighten. Turn
the screw counter clockwise to loosen.
