(TOOL MUST NOT BE CONVERTED TO OPERATE ON 230 VOLT) For replacement motor refer to parts list in this manual. CONNECTING TO POWER SUPPLY OUTLET If power cord is worn or' cut, or damaged in any way, have it replaced immediately WARNING: IF NOT PROPERLY GROUNDED THIS POWER TOOL CAN CAUSE AN ELECTRICAL SHOCK PARTICULARLY WHEN USED IN DAMP LOCATIONS CLOSE TO PLUMBING. IF AN ELECTRICAL SHOCK OCCURS THERE IS THE POTENTIAL OF A SECONDARY HAZARD SUCH AS YOUR HANDS CONTACTING THE SAW BLADE, If you are not sure that your outlet, as pictured below, is properly grounded, have it checked by a qualified efectrician Your unit is for use on 110-120volts, and hasa plug that looks like illustration below This power tool is equipped with a 3=conductor cord and grounding type plug which has been approved by Underwriters' Laboratories and the Canadian Standards Association. The ground conductor' has a green jacket and is attached to the tool housing at one end and to the ground prong in the attachment plug at the other' end WARNING: DO NOT PERMIT FINGERS TO TOUCH THE TERMINALS OF PLUGS WHEN INSTALLING OR REMOVING THE PLUG TO OR FROM THE OUTLET.

3-PRONG PROPERLY GROUNDED OUTLET PLUG
Plug power cord intoa 110-120Vproperlygrounded type outlet protected by a 15-amp dual element time delay or Circuit-Saver fuse or circuit breaker If the outlet you are planning to use for tMs power tool is of the 2 prong type, DO NOT REMOVE OR ALTER THE GROUNDING PRONG tN ANY MANNER Use an adapter as shown below and always connect the grounding lug to known ground It is recommended that you have a qualified electrician replace the TWO prong outlet with a properly grounded THREE prong outlet

STORAGE

Extra blades & blade holders are included with the scroll saw See illustration for location of storage for blades and holders, and also storage for set screw wrench
basic scronH saw operation
NOTE: Make certain set screws in blade holders are tight prior to each use of the scroll saw WARNING: NEVER OPERATE WITHOUT TABLE INSERT IN PLACE This scroll saw accepts a wide variety of blade widths and thicknesses: 5" to 6" length plain end type blades and 5" length pin type blades The blade size (thickness and width) and the number of teeth per inch are determined by the type of material and the smallest radius being cut NOTE: Use wider blades to achieve straightest cuts A scroll saw is basically a "curve cutting" machine It can also be used for straight-line cutting operations such as cross cutting, ripping, mitering, beveling, and compound cutting. Using the proper blade for the material and thickness being cut will help the operator to follow pattern lines. (Use wider blades to achieve the straightest cuts ) Blade teeth should always point down When a blade is dull, or when insufficient blade tension is being used, the blade may have a tendency to twist or break To minimize blade breakage and to produce more accurate results, be sure the blade is not forced into the workpiece. Too much pressure should not be applied on the wood as it is fed into the blade. Steady, even pressure will produce more uniform, cleaner cutting with less blade breakage. Loosen blade tension knob when scroll saw is not in use. Follow procedure to tension blade before use. The scroll saw has the capability of inside cutting (piercing). Pin-type blades are recommended when inside cutting as the best type of blade to use for maximum performance Drill an over-sized hole in scrap section of workpiece Locate two (2) blade holder keys among loose parts Position each key over one installed blade holder to secure holder while installing blade through workpiece. Release tension knob (see BLADE INSTALLATIONGETTING TO KNOW YOUR SCROLL SAW) Remove blade, and place workpiece on table with drilled hole aligned over blade slot in insert. Replace blade, sliding it through drilled hole and insert slot. Reinstall blade in lower and upper blade holders. Retighten tension knob (see BLADE

INSTALLATION-GETTING SCROLL SAW) Remove and store for future use TO KNOW YOUR two (2) blade holder keys
Plain-end blades can be used for inside cutting. Follow the procedure for pin-type blades, and loosen set screws in upper and lower blade holders using set screw wrench When installing blade in blade holders, tighten set screws with wrench Use caution when cutting off material which is irregular in cross section which could pinch the blade before the cut is completed A piece of molding for example must lay flat on the table and not be permitted to rock while being cut Use caution when cutting off round material such as dowel rods, or tubing They have a tendency to roll while being cut causing the blade to "bite" Always use a "V" block, or clamp round material to a miter

SAWING/SCROLLING

1 Adjust the guard to just contact the top of the workpiece 2 Use both hands while feeding the work into the blade Hold the workpiece firmly against the table Use gentle pressure, and do not force the work, but allow the blade to cut 3 Avoid putting side loads on the blade during cutting to keep cut square to table NOTE: When very sharp curves are to be cut, narrow blades should be used Remove blade clips when using narrow blades Loosen bevel lock knob and tilt housing of saw to the desired angle degree by reading bevel scales Adjust the guard to just contact the top of the workpiece Perform bevel cuts by feeding workpiece into blade without a guide or using the miter gauge HOUSING

BEVEL SETTING/CUTTING

WARNING: TO AVOID _ RUNNING THE MITER GAUGE INTO THE GUARD, ALWAYS SET THE BEVEL ANGLE TO THE RIGHT AS SHOWN BELOW,

To perforrn a rip cut on the scroll saw, use the miter gauge lock knob and wedge to secure the miter gauge in the slot The miter slot running perpendicular to the saw arm should be used when ripping boards less than 18 inches in length and when the blade teeth are in the front position, The miter slot running parallel to the saw arm should be used for ripping longer boards and when blade teeth are in the side position, Ad ust the guard to just contact the top of the workpiece, Tighten mter gauge lock knob at desired setting and feed workpiece into blade using miter gauge faceasa rip fence. Miter gauge head must be oriented and locked at 0 miter angle position to perform a rip cut NOTE: Use wider blades to achieve straightest cuts,.
