UNLATCHING AND RAISING
THE CUTTING HEAD (Fig. 15)
WARNING: To avoid serious injury, NEVER perform the
locking or unlocking procedure unless the saw is OFF and
the blade stationary.
To release the cutting head from the locked down position:
• Gently press down on the Cutting Head Handle.
• Pull out the head latching pin (Step 1) allow the cutting
head to rise to its upper position. (Step 2)
Note: The cutting head will automatically rise to the upper
position once it is released from the locked down position.
• It will automatically lock in the upper position.
If release is difficult:
• Gently rock the cutting head up and down.
• At the same time twist the Head Latching Pin clockwise and
pull outwards.
Note: We recommend that when the machine is not in use,
the cutting head is locked in its down position with the
latching pin fully engaged in the open half socket which is
machined into the cutting head upper surface near to the
pivot point. (Fig. 16).

INSTALLING OR REMOVING A BLADE

WARNING: Only carry out this operation with the battery
removed from the machine.
WARNING: Only use genuine Evolution blades or those
blades specifically recommended by Evolution Power Tools
and which are designed for this machine. Ensure that the
maximum speed of the blade is higher than the speed of the
motor.
Note: It is recommended that the operator considers wearing
protective gloves when handling the blade during installation
or when changing the blade.
Ensure the cutting head is in its upper position. (Fig. 17)
• Rotate the lower blade guard up and into the upper blade
guard.
Note: Lowering the cutting head slightly will allow the lower
blade guard to rotate fully into the upper blade guard giving
maximum access for the operator.
