Mounting the Scroll Saw

7

It is strongly recommended that you mount the machine
to a workbench or to a purpose built scroll saw stand.
A pad between the saw and the workbench/stand is also
recommended to reduce vibration. Ensure you use flat
washers between the bolt head and mounting holes,
see figs 01-02-03.

Fig 01-02-03

NOTE: Fretsaw Stand Only. You may need to add a larger
sub-table (MDF or Plywood plate) to give extra support
to larger models.
