maintenance (cont.)
oiling arm Bearings
Lubricate the arm bearings (Fig. 19) every 50 hours
of use or whenever there is a squeak coming from
the bearings.
WarninG!
Failure to unplug your variable speed scroll saw could result
in accidental starting causing possible serious personal injury.
Carefully place the saw on its side and remove the rubber caps from the upper
and lower arm of the saw.
Squirt a few drops of SAE 20 oil on the end of the shaft and bearings.
Leave the saw in this position overnight to allow the oil time to soak in.
Replace the rubber caps and repeat the above procedure on the opposite side
of the saw.
carbon brushes
When the carbon brushes wear out the tool will spark
and/or stop. Discontinue use as soon as this happens.
They should be replaced prior to recommencing use of the
tool. Carbon brushes are a wearing component of the tool
therefore not covered under warranty. Continuing to use
the tool when carbon brushes need to be replaced may
cause permanent damage to the tool. Carbon brushes will
wear out after many uses but when the carbon brushes need
to be replaced take the tool to an electrician or a power tool repairer for a quick and
low cost replacement. Always replace both carbon brushes at the same time.
inspecting or replacing the fuse
When required inspect or replace blown fuse.
Switch off and disconnect variable speed scroll saw from mains power supply.
Using a Phillips head screwdriver, remove the fuse holder (16) together with
the fuse.
Remove fuse from fuse holder (16), inspect and replace with new 3.15 amp fuse
if required. A blown fuse is when the filament (thin silver wire) is broken or out
of is place (not centred). Always replace a fuse with the same amperage rating
as the one that came out.
Refit fuse holder (16) together with fuse.
note:
Ozito Industries will not be responsible for any damage or injuries caused by
repair of the scroll saw by an unauthorised person or by mishandling.
