RIP OR STRAIGHT LINE CUTTING (Fig. 20)
1. Raise the blade guard foot (1) by loosening the
height adjustment knob (2).
2. Measure from the tip of the blade to the desired
distance. Position the straight edge parallel to the
blade at that distance.
3. Clamp the straight edge to the table.
4. Recheck your measurements using the work piece
to be cut and make sure the straight edge is secure.
5. Position the work piece against the blade and place
the blade guard foot against the top surface of the
work piece.
6. Secure the blade guard foot in place by tightening
the height adjustment knob.
7. Remove the work piece from the blade prior to turning the scroll saw ON.
CAUTION
: In order to avoid uncontrollable lifting of the work piece and reduce blade breakage, do not
turn the switch on while the work piece is against the blade.
8. Position the work piece against the straight edge prior to touching the leading edge of the work piece
against the blade.
9. Slowly feed the work piece into the blade, guiding the work piece against the straight edge and pressing the
work piece down against the table.
CAUTION
: Do not force the leading edge of the work piece into the blade. The blade will deflect, reducing
the accuracy of the cut, and may even break.
10. When the cut is complete, move the trailing edge of the work piece beyond the blade guard foot. Turn
the switch OFF.
