5. Close the lid. Snap shut both
the case latches
6. The table clamp can be fitted to
press the work piece against the
work surface. First install the post
into the vertical position at the
highest level. Rotate the
adjustment knob until the open
jaws can be passed over the post.
Align the bar ends to fit onto the
holes on the post and re-tighten to
secure in place. The tighter the
adjustment to the clamp knob the
more pressure is applied to hold
down your work.

Scroll Saw - Operating Instructions 12.4
Making pocket Cuts
1. Use the drill press or drill to bore a hole on the
inside of the area you want to remove, close to
the cutting line. Ensure that the drill diameter is
greater than the blade width by 1 or 2mm
2. Place the hole over the scroll saw blade and
align the cutting face of the blade with the
direction of cut and your marked line. For this
operation you will have to remove the Table
clamp or slide your work under neath it. Now
continue to stage 2 of ‘Making Cuts’.
Making Tight or Corner Cuts
NOTE: Don’t try and cut a curve which is too
tight by forcing the blade. This will put undue
pressure on the blade causing it to snap.
If you intend to make a pocket cut with internal
rounded corners it is best to use the drill press
first with the correct diameter drill.
For external corners continue your cut past the
your mark and then realign the work piece with
the blade facing in the correct direction.
Or
When you get to the tight external corner move
the work piece gently back and forward at the
same time rotating the work in the disired
direction to enlarge the cut width so the blade
can turn enough to align with your marked
direction.
Making Cuts
CAUTION.
Always ensure that the scroll saw is
switched off and the POWERhandle is removed
before any adjustments.
1. First insure that you have installed the correct
blade into the jigsaw for the material and design
you are about to Cut. Wood blade for all types of
Wood and a metal Blade for Metals and plastics.
2. Before starting the scroll saw or installing a
POWERhandle into the charger dock adjust the
table clamp so that it firmly presses your work
piece against the work surface but still allows
easy movement.
3. Align the first cut with the cutting face of the
blade with a small gap, holding your work piece
with your right hand start the scroll saw with your
left.
4. Grip you work pieces on both sides of the
table clamp and gently push it into the cutting
face of the scroll saw, firmly but smoothly guide
the work over the blade following your marked
design. Depending on the material of your work
piece you might have to blow the dust away to
keep good visibility of your marked cut line.
5. When you have completed your cut, hold the
work steadily with you right hand and stop the
scroll saw with your left.
Making Bevel Cuts
The jigsaw can be adjusted to lean 10° in either
direction to enable a Bevel cut.
