BLADE SELECTION (Fig. 12)
This scroll saw accepts 5” length pin end and pinless blades,
with a wide variety of blade thicknesses and widths. The type
of material and intricacies of cutting operations will determine
the number of teeth per inch. Always select the narrowest
blades for intricate curve cutting and the widest blades for
straight and large curve cutting operations. The following
table represents suggestions for various materials. Use this
table as an example, but with practice, personal preference
will be the best selection method.
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 but this will reduce the
ability to cut tight curves. A smaller blade width can cut
circles with smaller diameters.
Note: Thinner blades will have more possibilities for blade
deflection when cutting angles are not perpendicular to the
table.
BLADE CARE
To maximize the life of your scroll saw blades:
1. Do not bend blades when installing.
2. Always set proper blade tension.
3. Use the right blade (see instruction on replacement blade
packaging for proper use).
4. Feed the work correctly into the blade.
5. Use thin blades for intricate cutting.

BLADE REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION (Fig. 13 to 15)
WARNING
To prevent personal injury, always turn saw
OFF and disconnect the plug from the power source
before changing blades or making adjustments.
This saw uses pinned and pinless blades. Pinned blades are
thicker for stability and for faster assembly. They provide
faster cutting on a variety of materials.
Note: When installing pinned blades, the slot on the blade
holder must be slightly wider than the thickness of the blade.
After the blade is installed, the blade tension mechanism will
keep it in place.
1. To remove the blade, loosen the tension on it by lifting up
the blade tension lever. Turn the lever counterclockwise to
loosen the blade holder if necessary.

2. Remove the table insert. Carefully pry up on the table
insert to remove.
3. Push down on the upper blade holder to remove the blade
from the holder (2). Remove the blade from the lower
blade holder (3).
CAUTION: Install the blade with the teeth pointing
downward.
4. To install the blade, hook the blade in the recess of the
lower blade holder (3).
