ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENTS
6
7. Loosen the screw (4) holding the bevel scale pointer and
position pointer to 0°. Tighten the screw.
8. Attach the blade guard foot (1) so the foot rests flat
against the table. Tighten the screw (2) using a Phillips
head screwdriver (not included).
Note: Avoid setting the edge of the table against the top
of the motor. This can cause excess noise when the saw
is running.
BENCH MOUNTING THE SAW (Fig. 7-8)
Before operating the saw, it must be firmly mounted to a
workbench or another rigid frame. Use the base of the saw
to mark and pre-drill the mounting holes. If the saw is to be
used in one location, permanently secure it to the work
surface using wood screws if mounting to wood. Use bolts,
washers, and nuts if mounting into metal. To reduce noise and
vibration, install a soft foam pad (not supplied) between the
scroll saw and the workbench.
Note:
mounting hardware not included.
- to reduce the risk of injury:
WARNING
- When carrying the saw, hold it close to your body to
avoid injury to your back. Bend your knees when lifting
the saw.
- Carry the saw by the base. Do not carry the saw by
the power cord.
- Secure the saw in a position where people cannot stand,
sit, or walk behind it. Debris thrown from the saw could
injure people standing, sitting, or walking behind it.
- Secure the saw on a firm, level surface where the saw
cannot rock. Make sure there is adequate room for
handling and properly supporting the work piece.

Blade guard foot adjustment (Fig. 7 and 8)
When cutting at angles, the blade guard foot should be
adjusted so it is parallel to the table and rests flat above
the work piece.
1. To adjust, loosen the screw (2), tilt the foot (1) so it is
parallel to the table, and tighten the screw.
2. Loosen the height adjustment knob (3) to raise or lower
the foot until it just rests on top of the work piece. Tighten
the knob.

ADJUSTING THE DUST BLOWER (Fig. 9)
For best results, the dust blower tube (1) should be adjusted
to direct air at both the blade and the work piece.
SAWDUST COLLECTION PORT (Fig. 10 and 11)
This scroll saw allows a hose or vacuum accessory (not
provided) to be connected to the dust chute (2). If excessive
sawdust buildup occurs inside the base, use a
wet/dry vacuum cleaner or manually remove sawdust
by removing the screws (3) and metal plate on the left
side of the saw. Reattach the metal plate and screws
before starting the saw. This will keep your saw cutting
efficiently.
