ADDITIONAL SCROLL SAW WARNINGS

Never use damaged or incorrect blades, washers or bolts. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to any part of the power tool may result in personal injury. When cutting, always use the Guard supplied. Do not use saw Blades which are damaged or deformed. Ensure you use the correct Blades for the Saw. When changing a saw blade ensure that you wear suitable gloves. Take care that the selection of the saw Blade is suitable for the material to be cut. Wear suitable personal protective equipment when necessary. This could include: Hearing protection to reduce the risk of induced hearing loss. Respiratory protection to reduce the risk of inhalation of harmful dust. Always wear gloves when handling saw Blades or rough material. Saw Blades should be carried in a holder whenever practicable. This means using only your hands to support or guide the workpiece. Provide adequate support for long or wide workpieces. Avoid awkward operations and hand positions where a slip could cause your hand to move into the Blade. Always use the Blade guard. The Blade guard must always be used in every operation. Connect the saw to a dust collection device when sawing wood. The operator should be informed of the factors that influence exposure to dust e.g. type of material being cut and the importance of local extraction (capture or source) and the proper adjustment hoods/baffles/ chutes. Keep hands out of the path of the saw Blade. Never reach around the saw Blade. Turn off machine and wait for saw Blade to stop before making any adjustments.

WARNING When using this machine, dust particles may be produced. In some instances, depending on the materials you are working with, this dust can be particularly harmful. If you suspect that paint on the surface of material you wish to cut contains lead, seek professional advice. Lead based paints should only be removed by a professional and you should not attempt to remove it yourself. Once the dust has been deposited on surfaces, hand to mouth contact can result in the ingestion of lead. Exposure to even low levels of lead can cause irreversible brain and nervous system damage. The young and unborn children are particularly vulnerable. You are advised to consider the risks associated with the materials you are working with and to reduce the risk of exposure. As some materials can produce dust that may
be hazardous to your health, we recommend the use of an approved face mask with replaceable filters when using this machine. be hazardous to your health, we recommend the use of an approved face mask with replaceable filters when using this machine.

SECURING THE SCROLL SAW

WORKBENCH: If the Scroll Saw is to be used in a permanent location, it should be fastened securely to a firm supporting surface such as a workbench.
NOTE: Mounting Bolts not supplied.

• Place the Scroll Saw in the location you require and mark the 3 holes on the base.
• Drill the holes using a 3/8” Drill Bit.
• Place the Scroll Saw back into the chosen location and align up holes.
• Using the Hex Bolts (Not Supplied) secure the Scroll Saw.

NOTE: Bolt length should be 1.1/2” plus the thickness of the bench top.
CLAMPING: If your Scroll Saw is to be used as a portable tool, it is recommended you fasten it permanently to a mounting board that can easily be clamped to a workbench or other stable surface. The mounting board should be of sufficient size to avoid tipping while Scroll Saw is in use. Any good grade plywood or chipboard with a 3/4 in. (19 mm) thickness is recommended.

BLADE SELECTION

This Scroll Saw uses both Pinned and Non Pinned 133mm (5”) length blades, with a wide variety of blade thickness’s 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.
This table is 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.
NOTE: Thinner blades will have more possibilities for blade deflection when cutting angles are not perpendicular to the table.
NOTE: Removing the cover panel gives easy access to the lower blade holder, and will aid in the fitting of blades. Always replace cover panel before operating the saw.
