3. Preparation & adjustment 3.1 Assembly The EUROBOOR EDC.355 machine comes pre-assembled, but without blade attached. Fitting the blade to the machine is necessary before operating the machine. Please refer to “3.3 fitting the blade” for instructions on how to fit the blade. Further to this it is advised to check the machine is complete and all standard accessories are included before proceeding in any way.
Page 17
EUROBOOR EDC.355 is designed in class II (double isolated). Earth grounding is not required. If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a specially prepared cord available through the EUROBOOR service organisation.
3.3 Fitting the blade WARNING: Before undertaking any type of preparation or adjustment, make sure the machine is switched off and the power supply is disconnected. 1. Remove the spindle cover by loosening the two bolts using the M6 hexagon key.
5. Lower the retractable blade cover and put the front-flange and small flange back into place. 6. Tighten the spindle bolt using the M10 hexagon key. Make sure the spindle is locked using the spindle lock while tightening the spindle bolt.
Page 20
3. When the spindle bolt is loosened: remove the small flange and the front-flange from the driveshaft. Note: Keep the back-flange in place 4. Raise the retractable blade cover and take out the current blade. WARNING: Be careful for sharp edges.
3.5 Setting cutting angle The EUROBOOR EDC.355 has the capability to make cuts from 0° to 45° angles. Be sure that the correct angle is set before you start working with the machine. For setting the correct angle, follow below steps and refer to the image below: 1.
3.6 Clamping the workpiece When the correct angle is chosen for the workpiece, be sure to tighten the workpiece properly. The workpiece must be tightened before cutting to avoid possible movement and pinching of the workpiece as the cut nears completion.

3.6.1 Adjusting the plate positioning. Note: make sure the workpiece is centred with the sawblade. For bigger workpieces, the positioning of the plate should be in position 2. The plate can be positioned in two different positions. The position 1 is suitable for workpieces of maximum 150 mm, position 2 is suitable for workpieces of up to 180mm.
3.7 Adjusting cutting depth The maximum depth of cutting can be adjusted by turning the depth adjustment bolt clockwise or counter clockwise. When depth is set to the right value, this bolt prevents the blade to touch the surface under the base.
5. Check if the blade runs freely and is not vibrating. If the blade cannot run freely or is vibrating heavily, stop immediately and refer to your EUROBOOR dealer. 6. Slowly lower the blade onto the workpiece and cut through firmly. Do not force the machine or put too much pressure as this will only shorten the lifetime of the blade and increase wear on the machine.
4.2 Restart mid-cut If the machine is stopped during cutting, release the trigger and remove the blade from the workpiece. When in fully raised position, start the machine again and slowly lower the blade on the workpiece. The work can now be resumed. Do not force the machine, this will increase wear on the blade and machine.
5. Maintenance Your EUROBOOR power tool has been designed to operate over a long period of time with a minimum of maintenance. Continuous satisfactory operation depends upon proper tool care and regular cleaning. CAUTION: To reduce the risk of injury, turn off and disconnect the machine from the power source before installing and removing accessories, before adjusting or changing set- ups or when making repairs.
