SCROLL SAW SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1.
Wear safety goggles as protection against flying wood chips and saw dust.
2. A dust mask is recommended to keep saw dust out of your lungs.
3. This scroll saw is for indoor use only.
4. Do not cut pieces of material which are too small to be held by hand.
5. Clear the work table of all objects except the work piece (tools, scraps,
rulers etc.) before turning the saw on.
6. Make sure the blades’ teeth are pointing down, toward the table, and that
the blade tension is correct.
7. When cutting a large piece of material, support it at the height of the
table.
8. Do not feed the work piece through the blade too fast. Feed only as fast as
the blade will cut.
9. Keep your fingers away from the blade. Use a push stick as you near the
end of the cut.
10. Take care when cutting a work piece which is irregular in cross section.
Mouldings for example must lie flat, and not ‘rock’ on the table while being
cut. A suitable support must be used.
11. Switch off the saw and make sure the blade has come to a complete stop
before clearing sawdust or off-cuts from the table.
12. Make sure there are no nails or foreign objects in the part of the work piece
to be sawn.
13. Be extra cautious with very large or small, or irregularly shaped work pieces.
14. Set up the machine and make all adjustments with the power OFF, and
disconnected from the supply.
15. DO NOT operate the machine with the covers off. They must all be in place
and securely fastened when performing any operation
16. Be sure to use the correct blade size and type.
17. Use approved replacement saw blades. Contact your local CLARKE
supplier for advice. The use of inferior blades can increase the risk of injury.
