4. Locate the blade guard and carefully install it onto
the saw as shown.
Lightly spread apart the blade guard so pins will go
into holes inframe,
5. In order to cut, and to avoid uncontrollable lifting of
the workpiece, the teeth of the blades used on the
scroll saw should always point downward when installed
on the scroll saw.
6. Install the blade by inserting one end of the blade
through the slot in the blade guard, then the access
hole in the table, until you can hook the blade pin in the
pin recess in the bottom blade holder. Slide the top
blade pin into the pin recess of the top blade holder.
You may need to press down lightly on the arm to install
the blade.
NOTE: Use 5 inch long, pin end type blades only.
7, Carefully tighten the blade tension by turning the
tension knob clockwise ( F'_ ) just until you feel the
s_ackin the blade is removed.
t) BLADE GUARD REMOVED
FOR CLARITY
Double check to see that pins are properly located in
the slots.
Then turn the tension knob an additior_al two full turns
clockwise.
This amount of blade tension should do well for most
cutting operations and blades.
Before applying power, use screwdriver in slot at end of
motor shaft to turn mechanism while checking that the
blade is properly installed.
OVER TENSIONING OR UNDER TENSIONING
of the blade wil_cause blades to break rapk_ly.
The thicker, harder and more abrasive the wood
you are cutting, the more blades you will have to use.
Blade breakage is caused by the following:
, Over tension or under tension.
Overworking the blade by going too fast.
Twisting or bending the blade.
Over use- blade life exhausted.
• OVER AGGRESSIVE FEEDING of the workpiece
into the blade.
