SAFETY GUIDELINES
• To avoid injury from kickback:
• Hold the workpiece firmly against the tabletop.
• Do not feed the workpiece too fast while cutting. Only feed the workpiece at the
rate the saw will cut.
• Install the blade with the teeth pointing downward.
•
Do not start the saw with the workpiece pressing against the blade. Slowly feed the.
workpiece into the moving blade.
• Use caution when cutting round or irregularly shaped work pieces. Round items will
roll and irregularly shaped work pieces can pinch the blade.
• To avoid injury when operating the scroll saw:
• If you are not thoroughly familiar with the operation of scroll saws, obtain advice
from a qualified person.
• Before starting the saw, make sure the blade tension is correct. Recheck and adjust
tension as needed.
• Make sure the table is locked into position before starting the saw.
• Do not use dull or bent blades.
• When cutting a large workpiece, make sure the material is supported at the table
height.
• Turn the saw Off and unplug the power cord if the blade jams in the workpiece
while being backed out. This condition is usually caused by sawdust clogging the
line you are cutting. If this happens, turn Off the scroll saw and unplug the power
cord. Wedge open the workpiece and back out the blade.
• Do not use if blade guard is damaged or missing.
• Do not clear away cut-off pieces until blade has stopped and the saw is turned off.
USE SAFETY GOGGLES AND EAR PROTECTION:
ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION THAT CONFORMS WITH CUL
REQUIREMENTS. FLYING DEBRIS can cause permanent eye damage.
The tool is loud and the sound can cause hearing damage. Always wear
ear protection to help prevent hearing damage and loss. Failure to comply
may result in moderate injury.
USE DUST MASK:
Some dust created by sawing contains chemicals that are known to cause
cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these
chemicals come from lead-based paints, crystalline silica from bricks, cement
and other masonry products, arsenic and chromium from chemically treated
lumber. To reduce exposure to these chemicals, work in a well-ventilated area with
approved safety equipment, such as dust masks that are specially designed to filter out
microscopic particles.

WARNING!
To avoid injury from accidental starting of the scroll saw:
• Make sure the switch is Off and unplug the power cord
from the electric outlet before changing the blade,
performing maintenance or making adjustments.
• Make sure the switch is Off before plugging in the power
cord to an electric outlet.
• Know the condition of the scroll saw. If any part is missing, bent or does not operate
properly, replace the component before you use the scroll saw.
• Determine the type of work you are going to be doing. Properly protect your body
including your eyes, hands, face and ears.

should unexpectedly shift or your hand should slip.
• Do not cut a workpiece too small to be held safely.
• Do not reach under the scroll saw table when the motor is running.

• Obtain help when it is necessary to raise the scroll saw more than 10" (25.4 cm).
Bend your knees when lifting the scroll saw.
WHEN OPERATING THE SCROLL SAW
