8.7 Flexible Driver Attachment(fig.18, 19)
Safety Rules for Flexible Driver(fig.18, 7)
Do not operate the flexible shaft with a sharp or multiple bends. Ensure that there are no sharp residual
bends or kinks in the Flexible Driver before the operation.
Over bending the shaft can generate excessive heat on the jacket or hand piece and may cause the
Flexible Driver to disengage from the tool.
The minimum recommended bend radius is 6”(fig 20).
Always hold the hand piece firmly in your hands during the start-up. The reaction torque of the motor,
as it accelerates to full speed, can cause the shaft to twist.
Not for use with router bits or other large diameters (1” or larger) bits. Large diameter bits can cause
kickback and loss of control when used with the Flexible Driver.
Do not remove end ferrule while tool is running. The cable will become loose from the jacket and will
uncontrollably whip or lash around.

drive unit to slow down or stop and will overload the motor.
For your own safety, use a vise or screw clamp to secure small workpieces.
9. Operation
9.1 General information
The saw does not cut wood automatically. Rather, the opera- tor must push and guide the wood toward the
moving saw blade.
The teeth only cut the wood on the downstroke.
The wood must be slowly pushed and guided toward the saw blade, since the teeth of the blade are very small.
Those who want to use the saw must go through the process of learning how to do so. During this time, a few
blades will invariably break.
When cutting thicker wood, special attention must be paid not to bend or twist the saw blade.
Handling the saw blade properly increases its service life.
9.2 On/off switch (16)
Switching on: Press the “I” button.
Switching off: Press the “0” button.
ATTENTION
The machine is equipped with a safety switch against reactivation if the voltage drops.
If the scroll saw is switched on and the power supply in the mains is interrupted, the scroll saw remains
switched off, even if the power supply is re-established. Press the “I” button to switch it on

9.4 Stroke rate controller (fig. 2)
The stroke rate controller (19) allows you to set the stroke rate according to the material to be cut. In
case of soft material, we recommend high stroke rates, while strokes rates should be kept low for hard
material. Turn the stroke rate controller (19) clock- wise to increase the stroke rate. Turning
anti-clockwise lowers the stroke rate.
9.5 Operating modes (fig. 1, 2)
The scroll saw is able to be operated manually or via the foot pedal.

of exposure.
WARNING: The vibration and noise emissions during actual use of the power tool can differ from the declared value
depending on the ways in which the tool is used especially what kind of workpiece is processed dependant on the
following examples and other variations on how the tool is used:
How the tool is used and the materials being cut or drilled.
The tool being in good condition and well maintained.
The use of the correct accessory for the tool and ensuring it is sharp and in good condition.
The tightness of the grip on the handles and if any anti vibration and noise accessories are used.
And the tool is being used as intended by its design and these instructions.
This tool may cause hand-arm vibration syndrome if its use is not adequately managed.
WARNING: To be accurate, an estimation of exposure level in the actual conditions of use should also take account of all
parts of the operating cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off and when it is running idle but not actually
doing the job. This may significantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period.
Helping to minimise your vibration and noise exposure risk.
Always use sharp chisels, drills and blades.
Maintain this tool in accordance with these instructions and keep well lubricated (where appropriate).
If the tool is to be used regularly then invest in anti vibration and noise accessories.
