VIBRATION
The European Physical Agents (Vibration) Directive has been brought in to help
reduce hand arm vibration syndrome injuries to power tool users. The directive
requires power tool manufacturers and suppliers to provide indicative vibration test
results to enable users to make informed decisions as to the period of time a power
tool can be used safely on a daily basis and the choice of tool.
Further Advice can be found at www.hse.gov.uk
The declared vibration emission value should be used as a minimum level and
should be used with the current guidance on vibration.
Calculating the actual period of the actual period off use can be difficult and the HSE
website has further information.

The use the correct accessory for the tool and ensuring it is sharp and in good
condition.
The tightness of the grip on the handles.
And the tool is being used as intended by its design and these instructions.
This tool may cause hand-arm vibration syndrome if its use is not
adequately managed
Warning! identify safety measures to protect the operator that are based
on an estimation of exposure in the actual conditions of use (taking account
of all parts of the operating cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off
and when it is running idle in addition to the trigger time).Note The use of other
tools will reduce the users’ total working period on this tool.
Helping to minimise your vibration exposure risk.
ALWAYS use sharp chisels, drills and blades.
Maintain this tool in accordance with these instructions and keep well lubricated
(where appropriate)
Avoid using tools in temperatures of 10ºC or less.
Plan your work schedule to spread any high vibration tool use across a number
of days.

Before you start
Blade selection
This scroll saw accepts 5" length pin-end blades, with a wide variety of blade
thicknesses and widths. The type of material and intricacies of cutting operations
will determine the number of teeth per inch. Always select the narrowest blades
for intricate (tight radius and curves) curve cutting and the widest blades
for straight and large curve cutting operations. The following table represents
suggestions for various materials. When purchasing blades, refer to the back of
the package for best use of blades on various materials. Use this table as an
example, but practice and your own personal preference will be the best selection
method.
When choosing a blade, use very fine, narrow blades to scroll cut in thin wood
1/4" thick or less. Use wider blades for thicker materials but this will reduce the
ability to cut tight curves.

CAUTION: Install the blade with the teeth pointed downward.
WARNING: To prevent personal injury, always turn saw OFF and
disconnect the plug from the power source before changing blades
or making adjustments.
NOTE: When installing pin-end blades, the slot on the blade holder
must be slightly wider than the thickness of the blade. After the
blade is installed, the blade tension mechanism will keep it
in place.
Blade removal and installation
Blade Care
> Loosen the blade tension by raising the blade tension lock lever (13).
> To remove a blade:
Lift the blade (25) out by pulling forward on blade (25), then lifting the blade (25)
from the upper blade holder (5) and lower blade holder (22). Slight downward
pressure against the upper arm (39) may be helpful when removing blade from
upper blade holder (5).
Pin-end blades are thicker for stability and for faster assembly. They provide faster
cutting on a variety of materials.
To maximize the life of your scroll saw blades:
> Do not bend blades when installing.
> Always set proper blade tension.
> Use the right blade (see instructions on replacement blade packaging for proper
use.)
> Feed the workpiece correctly into the blade.
> Use thin blades for intricate cutting.
