Wear ear and eye protection

Specific safety instructions

• Wear safety goggles and a dust mask.
  • This scroll saw machine is for indoor use only.
• Ensure that the teeth of the saw point downwards prior to using the machine.
• If teeth of the saw blade are missing or are damaged, then the saw blade must be replaced immediately.
• Use the scroll saw machine on a stable and flat surface.
• Never exert pressure on the sides of the saw blade because it may break.
• Check wooden work pieces for possible protruding nails etc. and remove these.
• Do not touch the sawing surface with your hands.
• Never leave the sawing machine unattended while it is running.
• Do not remove any wood debris etc, in the vicinity of the saw with your hands while it is running. Turn the machine off before removing the wood debris.

Immediately switch off the machine when

• Interruption in the mains plug, mains lead or mains lead damage.
• Defect switch.
• Smoke or stench of scorched isolation.

Electrical safety

When using electric machines always observe the safety regulations applicable in your country to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and personal injury. Read the following safety instructions and also the enclosed safety instructions.

Always check that the power supply corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate.

Mains connection

Only use earthed sockets with earthing wire connected per the regulations.

Replacing the mains connection cable

The mains connection cable may only be replaced by a special cable in a specialised workshop.

Replacing cables or plugs

Dispose of old cables or plugs immediately after replacing them. It is dangerous to connect the plug of a loose cable to a wall socket.

Using extension cables

Only use an approved extension cable, corresponding to the machine power use. The wires must have a minimum cross section of 1.5 mm^2 . If the cable is on a reel, it must be fully paid out.

3. INSTALLING ACCESSORIES

Always disconnect the machine from the main power supply before carrying out any maintenance work

Installing the protective cover

Fig.B

• Before commissioning the machine, the protective cover (5) must be installed.
• Insert the screw from the inside left, then affix the washer and the safety ring from the right side. The safety ring (A) may be left out optionally.
• Screw the knurled nut in tight.

Installing the cross guide

Fig.C

The cross guide (3) allows material to be bevelled, and can be simultaneously used to support the material as it is fed through the saw.

Mounting the rubber feet

Fig. G

The enclosed rubber feet contribute to a steady position of the scroll saw on your worktable

• Place the rubber foot on its place
• Connect the rubber foot with help of the enclosed bolt, ring and nut
• Tighten the nut with a wrench

Sawdust blower

Fig. H

The sawdust blower keeps the workpiece clean for more accurate scroll cuts. For best results, always direct air flow from the blower tube at blade and workpiece. To adjust, simply bend to desired position.

Installation

• Place the sawdust blower on the hole on top of the machine
• Turn the blow pipe clockwise into the hole

4. OPERATION

Always observe the safety instructions and obey the relevant regulations.

Start - Push the green ON-switch to start the machine

Stop - Push the red OFF-switch to stop the machine

Tilting the table

Fig.D

The scroll saw table can be tilted through 45^ . To do so:

• Lock the locking arm underneath the table.
• Manually tilt the table until the desired angle has been reached (see the graduated scale on the machine).
  • Retighten the locking arm.

Adapters for universal saw blades

Fig. F

The enclosed adapters should only be used with universal (= without pins on the end) saw blades

• Unscrew the Allen screws on the adapter counterclockwise
• Slide the universal saw into the gap between the Allen screws
• Tighten the Allen screws clockwise so the saw is clamped
  • Install the saw blade (see INSTALLING THE SAW BLADE)

Installing the saw blade

Fig.E

Always disconnect the machine from the main power supply before carrying out any maintenance work

Use universal saw blades from any better DIY shop or machine shop.

• Select the correct blade for the kind of wood to be cut.
• Push the spanner upwards. (6).
• Push the saw blade through the slot, with the teeth pointing downwards. Make sure that the bolt of the saw blade (or saw-blade adapter) slides into the lower saw blade holder.
• Pull the saw blade up, so that the upper bolt (or saw-blade adapter) slides into the upper holder.
• Tighten the tensioner button until the saw blade has the required tension.
• Remove all tools and other objects from the saw table. Activate the current and allow the saw blade to run before starting to saw. The saw blade should run quietly.

Removing the saw blade

Always disconnect the machine from the mains before carrying out any maintenance work.

• Loosen the spanner until the spring is slack.
• Carefully push down the upper saw-blade holder and slightly lift the blade in order to facilitate its removal.

- Allow the blade to drop down slightly and push it forward, in order to loosen it from the lower holder.

Basic scroll saw operations and tips

• There is a learning curve for each person who wants to use this saw. During that period of time it is expected that some blades will break until you learn how to use the saw and receive the greatest benefit from the blades.
• Blades wear faster when:

• cutting plywood, which is very abrasive;
- when sawing wood which is thicker than the blade stroke;
- when sawing hardwood;
- when side pressure is placed on the blade

• The saw blade saws only during the downward stroke.
• Using both hands, slowly and with minimum pressure push the workpiece across the table towards the saw blade. This will prevent the blade from breaking or twisting.
• For optimal results, the saw blade must be sharp.
• Use the proper saw blade. The selection of the saw-blade depends on the thickness of the wood and the cut you would like to achieve. Keep the following in mind as a general rule: The thinner and harder the wood, the finer the teeth of the saw blade. Use a small blade to saw sharp curves.

5. MAINTENANCE

Always disconnect the machine from the mains before carrying out any maintenance work.

The machine is designed to function faultlessly for a long period and with a minimum of maintenance.

Extend its lifespan by regularly cleaning the machine and treating it correctly.

Cleaning

Regularly clean the machine with a soft cloth, preferably after each use. Keep the ventilator slot free of dust and other deposits. Remove any tenacious deposits with a soft cloth moistened with soap. Do not use solvents (petrol, alcohol, ammonia, etc.) as they will damage the plastic parts.
