Align the Bevel Indicator

The bevel indicator has been factory adjusted, however, should

be checked prior to use (Fig. 3 to 6).

1. Remove the blade guard foot (1) using the Phillips screwdriver

(2) to loosen the screw.

2. Loosen the table bevel lock knob (3) and move the table until

it is approximately at a right angle to the blade.

3. Loosen the locking nut (5) on the table adjusting screw (6)

under the table by rotating it left (anti-clockwise). Lower the

table adjusting screw by rotating it right (clockwise).

4. Use a combination square (7) to set the table exactly 90° to the

blade (8). If there is space between the square and blade,

adjust the table angle until the space is closed.

5. Lock the table bevel lock knob under the table (3) to prevent

movement.

6. Tighten the adjusting screw (6) under the table until the tip of

the screw touches the table. Tighten the lock nut (5).

7. Loosen the screw (4) holding the bevel scale pointer and

position pointer to 0°. Tighten the screw.

8. Attach the blade guard foot (1)

using the hex key (2) so the foot

rests flat against the table.

Tighten the screw.

Avoid setting the edge of

the table against the top of

the motor. This can cause excess

noise when the saw is running.

Blade Guard Foot Adjustment

When cutting at angles, the blade guard foot should be adjusted so

it is parallel to the table and rests flat above the work-piece (Fig. 7

and 8).

1. To adjust, loosen the screw (2), tilt the foot (1) so it is parallel

to the table, and tighten the screw.

2. Loosen the height adjustment knob (3) to raise or lower the

foot until it just rests on top of the work piece. Tighten the knob.

Dust Blower Adjustment

Sawdust Collection Port

(Fig. 10 and 11)

This scroll saw allows a hose or vacuum accessory (not supplied) to be connected to the dust port (1). If

excessive sawdust build up occurs inside the base, use a vacuum cleaner or manually remove sawdust by

removing the screws (2) and metal plate on the left side of the saw. Re-attach the metal plate and screws

before starting the saw.

Blade Selection

This machine accepts 5" length pin-end and plain blades, with a wide

variety of blade thicknesses and widths. The type of material and

intricacies of cutting operations will determine the most suitable

number of teeth per inch ("tpi"). Always select the narrowest blades for

intricate curve cutting and the widest blades for straight and large

curve cutting operations. The following table represents suggestions

for various materials. Use this table as an example, but with practice,

personal preference will be the best selection method (Fig. 12).

When choosing a blade, use very fine, narrow blades to scroll cut in

thin wood 6mm (1/4") thick or less. Use wider blades for thicker

materials but this will reduce the ability to cut tight curves. A smaller

blade width can cut circles with smaller diameters.

Thinner blades will have a greater tendency for deflection, especially when cutting at angles not

perpendicular to the table.

Operation

Risk of injury when operating the machine. Always use caution when handling the work-

piece. • Risk of injury when handling saw blades. Use caution and wear protective gloves. •

Ensure that the blade is correctly installed and adjusted before using the machine. • Do NOT attempt to cut

materials that are not suitable to the cutting speed of the machine and blade type. For example, hard metals.

• Know the condition of the machine. If any part is missing, damaged, or does not operate properly, replace

the component before use. • Properly protect your body including your eyes, hands, face, and ears. • Do not

cut a work piece too small to be held safely. •Use supplied or recommended accessories only. Follow the

instructions supplied with the accessory. The use of improper accessories may cause risk of injury and void

any warranty. • Do not reach under the scroll saw table when the motor is running. • Switch the machine OFF

and disconnect it from the electrical supply before changing the blade, performing maintenance or making

adjustments. • Make sure the switch is OFF before plugging in the power cord to an electric outlet. • Always

hold the work-piece firmly against the table. • Always feed the work-piece into the machine at the rate the

saw will cut. • Do not start the machine with the work-piece touching the blade. • Use caution when cutting

round or irregularly shaped work-pieces. Round items may roll and irregularly shaped work pieces can pinch

the blade. • Make sure the table is locked into position before starting the machine. • Do not use dull or bent

blades. • When cutting large work-pieces, make sure the material is supported at table height. • If the blade

jams, switch the machine OFF and disconnect it from the electrical supply. Jams are usually caused by

sawdust filling the cut. Wedge open the work-piece just enough to back out the blade, then clear the cut

General Operational Recommendations

A scroll saw is basically a curve-cutting machine. It can also be used for straight cutting and bevelling or

angle cutting operations. Read and understand the following before attempting to use the saw.

•There is a learning curve for each person using this saw. During that period, it is expected that some

blades will break until you learn how to use the saw.

•When feeding the work-piece into the machine, do so at a rate where cutting is efficient and there is not

unnecessary force on the blade that can cause deflection and breakage.

•The blade teeth cut on the down stroke ONLY.

•Best results are achieved when cutting materials under 25mm (1") thick. When cutting material thicker

than 25mm, feed the work-piece very slowly into the blade and take extra care not to bend or twist the

blade while cutting.

•Teeth on scroll saw blades wear out and the blades must be replaced for best cutting results. Blades

generally stay sharp for 1/2 hour to 2 hours of cutting.

•To get accurate cuts, be prepared to compensate for the blade tendency to follow the wood grain.

•This scroll saw is primarily designed to cut wood or wood products. For cutting precious and nonferrous

metals, the speed control must be set to very slow speeds.

•When choosing a blade, use very fine, narrow blades to cut materials 6mm (1/4") thick or less. Use wider

blades for thicker materials. Wider blades, however, reduce the ability to cut tight curves.

•Blades wear down faster when cutting plywood or abrasive particle board. Angle cutting in hardwoods

also wears blades down faster.
