5. Caution! Plugs and fuses
The Scroll Saw uses a standard amp fuse. A suitable 13-amp outlet socket should be
located near the machine in accordance with electrical regulations.
6. Extension leads or reels
The Scroll Saw is fitted with a suitable electric power cable which we strongly recom-
mend you do not extend or use an extension lead. Consult a qualified electrician on
options available.
7. General description
The Scroll Saw is a static indoor machine not suitable for use outdoor.
The machine uses a single-phase alternating current 240V~50Hz. motor. Its compact
and robust format makes it versatile and efficient for uses described in this manual. It
complies with current regulations and the optimum quality of materials used will en-
sure a long working life in complete safety. Do not attempt to cut pieces of material too
small to hold by hand outside the blade guard. Avoid awkward hand positions where a
sudden slip could cause a hand to move into the blade.
Avoid the risk of the workpiece jumping upwards, ensure the blade teeth point down-
ward toward the table.
To avoid blade breakage always adjust blade tension correctly.
8. To avoid losing control of the work piece or tool:
When cutting a large piece of material make sure it is fully supported at table height.
Hold the work piece firmly against the table. Do not force the material while cutting.
Only feed the material fast enough so that the blade maintains a smooth cutting speed.
Use caution when cutting off material which is irregular in cross section, which could
pinch the blade before the cut is completed. A piece of moulding for example must lay
on the table and not be permitted to rock while being cut. Use caution when cutting off
round material such as dowel rods or tubing . They have a tendency to roll while be-
ing cut causing the blade to bite. Use a Vblock to control the piece. When backing the
blade out of the workpiece, the blade may bind in the kerf (cut) this is usually caused
by sawdust clogging up the kerf. If this happens, turn off the Scroll Saw, remove plug
from power source outlet, wedge open the kerf, and then back the blade out of the
workpiece.
To avoid un-supervised work, misuse or accidents due to inattention: never leave the
scroll saw work area with the power on or before the machine has come to a complete
stop.
Do not perform layout, assembly or set up work on the table while saw is in operation.
Turn the saw off and removeplug from power supply before installing or removing an
accessory or attachment. Never turn your scroll saw on before clearing the table of all
objects (tools scraps of wood etc) except for the work piece and related feed or support
devices for the operation planned.
9. Damaged or missing parts.
Should any part of this Scroll Saw be missing, bent or fail in any way or any electrical
component fail to perform properly, shut off the power switch and remove the plug
from power supply.
Replace damaged, missing and/or failed parts before resuming operation.
10. Think safety.
Safety is a combination of operator common sense and alertness whenever the scroll
saw is in operation. The operation of any power tool can result in foreign objects be-
