Operation

Mounting the Machine on a Work Bench

A workbench made from solid wood is better than one made of plywood, as interfering vibrations and noise are

more noticeable with plywood.

The necessary tools and small parts for assembling the saw on a workbench are not supplied with the saw.

However, use equipment of at least the following:

1. Machine

2. Bolt M8 (×3)

3. Flat Washer Ø8 (×3)

4. Rubber Pad

5. Work Table

6. Big Flat Washer Ø8 (×3)

7. Lock Washer Ø8 (×3)

8. Nut M8 (×3)

First, drill holes into the seating surface and then Insert the screws.

A foam rubber base for reduction of noise is not supplied with the saw either. However, we expressly

recommend that you use such a base to keep vibration and noise to a minimum. Ideal size 400 × 240 mm.

Setting the Saw Bench

•Release the star button and bring the saw bench to a right angle in relation to the saw blade. Use a 90°

angle L-square measure the right angle between the blade and the bench. The saw blade be at 90° to the

angle.

•Close the star button when the distance between the blade and the 90° angle is at a minimum. The bench

should then be at 90° to the saw blade.

Setting the Angle Scale

Release the lock screw and bring the indicator to the zero position. Fasten the screw.

The angle scale is a useful piece of supplementary equipment but should not be used for precision work.

Use scrap wood for saw tests, adjust the bench if necessary.

Horizontal Saw Bench and Diagonal Cuts

The saw bench can be positioned into a 45° diagonal position or be left in the horizontal position.

You can read off the approximate slope angle by using the angle scale located under the work bench. For more

exact adjustment, use scrap wood for some saw tests; adjust the bench if necessary.

Scroll Saw - SS16 Series II

A scroll saw is fundamentally a “curve cutting tool” but which can also carry out straight and angled edge cuts.

Familiarise yourself with the following important points prior to commissioning the saw.

•The saw does not automatically cut wood. You must feed the wood against the saw blade manually.

•The cutting process occurs only while the blade is moving downwards.

•Feed the wood slowly against the saw blade as the saw blade teeth are small and cut only while moving

downwards.

•All persons carrying out work with the saw require training. The saw blade may break easily during this

training time while the operator is still unfamiliar with the saw.

•The saw is best suited for sheets of wood less than 2.5 cm thick.

Feed the wood especially slowly against the blade and avoid abrupt curves to prevent the saw blade from

breaking, if you wish to cut wood sheets thicker than 2.5 cm.

•Saw blade teeth becomes blunt over time, saw blades must be replaced. The saw blades are enough for 1/2

to 2 operating time depending upon the type of wood.

•Try and make sure that the saw blade follows the grain of the wood in order to obtain a clean cut.

•The saw speed must be reduced to minimum when cutting precious and non-ferrous metals.
