10. When choosing a blade to use with your
scroll saw, consider very fine, narrow
blades to scroll cut in thin wood in 1/4 in.
(6.4 mm) thick or less. Use wider blades
for thicker materials but this will reduce
the ability to cut tight curves.
11. This saw uses 5 in. (127 mm) long pin or
plain end type blades.
12. Blades wear faster when cutting plywood
or particle board which is very abrasive.
Angle cutting in hardwoods reduces
blade tooth set faster due to the blade
deflection.
FREEHAND CUTTING (FIG. P)
1. Lay out desired design, or secure design
to the workpiece (1).
2. Raise the blade guard foot (2) by
loosening the blade guard foot lock
knob
(3).
3. Position the workpiece against the blade
and place the blade guard foot slightly
above the top surface of the workpiece.
4. Secure the blade guard foot (2) by
tightening the blade guard foot lock
knob (3).
5. Remove the workpiece from the blade
before turning the scroll saw ON.
Set the desired speed by turning the
speed control knob (4) clockwise or
counterclockwise.
In order to avoid uncontrollable lifting
of the workpiece and to reduce blade
breakage, do not turn saw ON while
the workpiece is against the blade.
6. When turning the scroll saw ON, position
the workpiece against scrap wood prior
to touching the leading edge of the
workpiece against the blade.
NOTE:
For your own safety, use the scrap
wood to perform the cutting especially for
the small workpiece.
7. Slowly feed the workpiece into the blade
by guiding and pressing the workpiece
down against the table.
Do not force the leading edge of the
workpiece into the blade, it may deflect
the blade, reduce accuracy of cutting,
and possibly break the blade.
8. When the cut is complete, move the
trailing pieces of the workpiece beyond
the blade guard foot. Turn the scroll saw
OFF.

blade
guard foot lock knob (3) and retighten.
3. Tilt the table (4) to the desired angle by
loosening the table lock knob (5) and
move the table to the proper angle, using
the degree scale and the pointer (6).
4. Tighten the table lock knob (5).
5. Loosen the blade guard screw (7), and tilt
the blade guard to the same angle as the
table (4). Retighten the blade guard
screw (7).
6. Position the workpiece on the left and
