OPERATION

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR CUTTING

A scroll saw is basically a curve-cutting machine. It can also

be used for straight cutting and beveling or angle cutting

operations. Please read and understand the following items

before attempting to use the saw.
  1. When feeding the work piece into the blade do not force

      it against the blade. This could cause blade deflection.

      Allow the saw to cut the material by guiding the work

      piece into the blade as it cuts.
  2. The blade teeth cut material ONLY on the down stroke.
  3. Guide the wood into the blade slowly because the teeth

      of the blade are very small and remove wood only on

      the down stroke.
  4. There is a learning curve for each person using this saw. 

      During that period of time it is expected that some blades 

      will break until you learn how to use the saw.
  5. Best results are achieved when cutting wood one inch

      thick or less.
  6. When cutting wood thicker than one inch, guide the wood

      slowly into the blade and take extra care not to bend or 

      twist the blade while cutting in order to maximize blade

      life.
  7. Teeth on scroll saw blades wear out and the blades

      must be replaced frequently for best cutting results.

      Scroll saw blades generally stay sharp for 1/2 hour

      to 2 hours of cutting.
  8. To get accurate cuts, be prepared to compensate for

      the blade’s tendency to follow the wood grain.
  9. This scroll saw is primarily designed to cut wood or wood

      products. For cutting precious and non-ferrous metals,

      the variable control switch must be set at very slow

      speeds.
10. 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. This, however, will reduce

      the ability to cut tight curves.
11. Blades wear down faster when cutting plywood or very

      abrasive particle board. Angle cutting in hardwoods

      also wears blades down faster.

ON/OFF & SPEED CONTROL SWITCH (Fig. 20)

Always wait for the saw to come to a complete stop before

restarting.
  1. To turn the saw on, flip the ON/OFF switch to ON (2).

      When first starting the saw, it is best to move the speed

      control knob (1) to the middle speed position.
  2. Adjust the blade speed to the desired setting between

      400 to 1600 strokes per minute (SPM). Turning the

      control knob clockwise increases speed; turning it

      counterclockwise reduces speed.
  3. To turn the saw off, flip the ON/OFF switch back to

      OFF (2) in. Note: You can lock the scroll saw by removing

      the tip of the switch. Just pry off the switch lock with your 

      fingernails to prevent accidental operation.

WARNING

                   To avoid injury from accidental start-ups,

always turn the switch OFF and unplug the scroll saw

before moving the tool, replacing the blade, or making

adjustments.

FREEHAND CUTTING (Fig. 21)

  1. Lay out desired design, or secure design to the work piece.
  2. Raise the blade guard foot (1) by loosening the height

      adjustment knob (2).
  3. Position the work piece against the blade and place

      the blade guard foot against the top surface of the work

      piece.
  4. Secure the blade guard foot (1) by tightening the height

      adjustment knob (2).
  5. Remove the work piece from the blade prior to turning

      the scroll saw ON.

      CAUTION:

 In order to avoid uncontrollable lifting of

      the work piece and to reduce blade breakage, do not turn

      the switch on while the work piece is against the blade.

  6. Slowly feed the work piece into the blade by guiding

      and pressing the work piece down against the table.
      

CAUTION:

 Do not force the leading edge of the work

      piece into the blade. The blade will deflect, reducing

      accuracy of cut, and may break.
  7. When the cut is complete, move the trailing edge of

      the work piece beyond the blade guard foot. Turn the

      switch OFF.
