this is the evolution R 210 SMS this machine can cut wood metal or plastic
with the supplied blade or you can swap it over to a diamond disc which enables
you to cut masonry tiles etc this is one of the most versatile miter saws
that you can actually get because you can cut so much material on it
this has a slide function so you can actually cut material which is 230
millimeters wide by 65 millimeters deep you can also call mitres on this
machine at 50 degrees in either direction and you can also bevel the
Machine over from 0 to 45 degrees so I'm just going to go through a few of the
features of the machine and just explain exactly what everything does if you undo
the knob with the front there and press in the lever you can then turn the
machine and that will go to 50 degrees in either direction the machine does
come with positive locks so I will actually lock in at all of the
important angles which you may need so you can see as I'm moving that it's
walking in at 0 degrees then locks in at 15 22.5 30 and 45 degrees and it does
that in both directions the saw comes with this useful work clamp which can be
used on the left on side or right outside of the machine on the top there
we have the switch for the laser I have to say that don't really use lasers
because I do think they are a bit of a gimmick but some people may find that
useful the machine comes with a depth stop which is very useful that limits
the depth at which the blade can cut so you can adjust that and that is very
useful for some woodworking joints once you've adjusted it can lock that in
position there is then a stop there when you pull the Machine down it will then
stop on the depth stop limiting the depth at which the blade can travel and
you can leave that set in a certain position and then you can simply flip
that part out of the way giving you the full depth of cut we've
got the locking pin which locks the machine in the down position for when
you're transporting it that is very easy to use and on this side of the machine
this is something new on the evolution machines they've actually got some where
to wrap the power cord around which will prevent it from getting damaged you've
then got the release knob to enable the machine to the sliding function that can
be locked in any position we've then got the bevel release lever at the back
there you can simply undo that that's enables you to bevel the machine over
I've now set this up on the evolution mitre stand and you'll notice that I've
connected it up to the vacuum that will remove a lot of the dust I'm now going
to do some test cuts on some timber some aluminium and some steel one thing
I must point out about this is it's not actually intended for use on galvanized
steel such as unis but for some reason they did not recommend you use this
machine for cutting galvanized steel the first cut that I'm going to do is
going to be in real time every other cut after that is going to be speeded
up by approximately three to four hundred percent to ensure that the video is a
shot as possible
I'll just cut two 45-degree cuts on this piece of architrave which is given us a
90 degree angle and you can see that that is absolutely
Bob on there is absolutely nothing wrong with that whatsoever
and as you can see it's cut that absolutely no problem at all and it is
cold to the touch
I've now just done a bevel cut on some skirting board which is approximately
nine inches deep you may need to get a 45 degree square in order to ensure that
you set the Machine up correctly to do cuts like this but you can quite clearly
see from that that it has cut that absolutely bob on if I put the square on
there that is absolutely perfect at 90 degrees obviously this wood is bowed
slightly so cutting bowed wood is obviously a lot more difficult but you
can't see that that has given us a perfect bevel cut down that piece of
skirting board
I'm going to change the blade for the diamond blade before we do that we need
to switch off and unplug the saw
this is a 12-inch granite tile as you can see this is too wide to fit on the
machine but you can cut from one side flip it over and then cut from the other
side
so that's the evolution R 210 SMS it really is a fantastic saw it is very
versatile it's accurate and it will cut virtually anything if I had to pick a
fault with the saw it would be the lead the lead on this machine could do with
being a couple of meters longer so that's the review part of the video
over with if you continue watching I'll show you
how to set this machine up from new and I'll show you how to ensure that the
blade is cutting it squarely when you take the saw out of the box
you do have to do a little bit of assembly but it is very easy to do so I
if we take that part of the saw spin that round on the back there there is a allen
key and that does two different sizes that end fits the blade and that end
enables you to adjust the fence of the back unfortunately it doesn't actually
fit the adjustment screw there and in order to move that you're going to need
a five millimeter allen key which will fit in there like so and you may also
need a ten millimeter spanner or an adjustable to loosen off the locking nut
so to start off with we need to press in that lever and turn the machine so that
it is at 90 degrees or on the zero mark then gonna take the slide rails and on
the end there you'll see these plastic parts we need to ensure that they are
pulled out like so and then once the cutting head is placed on there it
actually pushes out those two pins which then locks that in position we then need
to ensure this is the correct way up so that evolution can be read simply
take that and push that through the linear bearings in the back there we can
then just lock that in position and then on the cutting head itself you'll see
those two holes we're simply to get that and push that
onto the linear slide when we push that on though you should hear it click into
position like so and if you check in that hole you should be able to see the
green locating pin you need to ensure that you can see the full part of the
pin that then means that that is fully engaged a locked in position we can now
take the allen key that supplied and we can undo these two small hex screws so we
just need to remove both of these at each side we can I take the table
extension these are left and right handed they will actually only fit the one way
around can then place the hex bolts back in there and we can tighten those up
we now need to insert this cable guide to do that you need to ensure that the
machine is in the forward position with it locked and also with the head tilted up
once you've done that just get the cable hook it around the first cable guide
there and then at the back take the second cable guide there are actually
locating lugs on that so I simply push that into position then that is
held in position using the self-tapping screw that is actually a useful feature
because you can actually wrap the cable around there that is something new on
this saw and they've actually seen that before on one of the evolution saws we
then need to take that knob that simply screws into the front of the machine
there and then finally we have the work clamp that will just go in one of the
holes on the left hand side on the right hand side of machine to hold the work
piece that you are cutting so that is it it is very very easy to set this machine
up we're now going to install the blade on this machine so think that you need
to press in that lever which releases the blade guard and to lock the spindle
you need to press in that button there that will prevent the spindle from
rotating so you do need to insure that the machine is unplugged when you do
this obviously I'm going to press in the spindle lock button
just gonna undo the bolt that's in there this is actually a left and it's thread so
you do need to undo it going in the opposite direction than what you would
normally so I'm just going to remove that bolt and gonna remove the flange
from there the blade will have a directional arrow
on you need to ensure that the blade is fitted in the correct direction and if
you look on the machine itself it does actually have an arrow there telling
you which direction and the blade rotates in so we need to match those two up
like so we can then press in the lever there and we can pull the machine down
slightly and then we can simply take the guard and move that around out
of the way you can hold that with your thumb you can then insert the blade
until it's on the rear flange there you can then take the front part of the flange
put that on there and then you can insert the bolt remembering that it's a
left-handed thread
so I'm now going to let go of the blade guard I'm now going to press in the
spindle lock again and then I'm going to tighten up this bolt so that's how easy
it is to flt the blade it really is a simple operation we're done in a matter
of minutes before you use the machine it's a good idea to do a couple of
simple checks to ensure that it is going to be accurate to begin with a machine
like this can actually be adjusted in a few different ways and it could have
been knocked or banged during transportation so it's always a good idea to check that
the blade is square to the fence at the back and to the table before you attempt
to do any cuts so I'm just going to press in the guard release I'm gonna pull
the Machine down and then when it's in that position I'm going to push in the
locking pin on the top there and that will hold the machine down and then
going to undo the slide locking knob on the back there I'm just going to push
that right back and then I'm going to tighten up the screw again once we have got it
in that position we can then check if the blade is square to the fence at
the back so I'm ensuring that the square is on the fence at the back there and
I'm just pushing that straight up to the blade ensuring that there is no gap
at all that looks pretty good to be honest you won't get it much better than
that if you've got a gap anywhere along there you will have to adjust the back
fence until you get it square with the blade if you do need to adjust the fence
you can do it quite easily by loosening that screw and the two screws at this
side using the supplied allen key you can then adjust it using the square and
tighten those back up we now need to check that the blade is square to the
table to do that you can take the square put it on the table and hold it against
the blade when you do this you need to ensure that the square is not actually
touching the carbide teeth because they stick out slightly from the blade itself
and we do actually have a tiny gap at the top and that will mean that your saw
will not be as accurate it could be I'll just shine the torch on
there and you should actually be able to see it there's no gap at the bottom but
at the top there is a slight gap so we're going to adjust that until we get
rid of the gap so that it cuts perfectly straight in order to adjust this it is
very easy we simply need to pull out the locking pin on the top lift up the head
undo the handle at the back and simply tilt it over so it's in the 45 degree
position we then have this bolt which simply needs adjusting a bit because we
had a gap at the top of the blade we actually need to raise that up a little
bit so to do that I'm just going to get the 10 mil spanner I'm just going to
undo it and then going to turn that to the left slightly and then I'm going to
re-tighten the locking nut we can then tilt the machine back up to the 90
degree position are the zero mark can lock the handle off at the back there and then
we'll just check that we've still got a tiny gap so again I'm gonna pull the
pin out lift the head off undo the handle tilt that out of the way and then
I'm just going to undo the locking nut
and then I'm just gonna turn that about an eighth of a turn and then I'm gonna
retighten the locking nut it is actually only a fraction of a millimeter out but
when you get your machine at first it is best to set it up accurately that way
you're guaranteed accurate cuts this time we've got it absolutely perfect you
can push that straight up there straight against the blade I'll shine the torch
to the back you can see that there is no gap at all so we now know that that will
give us an extremely accurate cut so that's how to assemble the saw and
that is how to insert the blade and ensure it is square before you start I
