INSPECTION, MAINTENANCE, AND CLEANING
WARNING! Make sure the power On/Off Switch (72) of the Scroll Saw is in its “OFF” position and that the tool is unplugged from its electrical outlet before performing any
inspection, maintenance, or cleaning procedures. Note: All repairs should be done by a qualified technician.
1.Before each use, inspect the general condition of the Scroll Saw. Check for loose screws, misalignment or binding of moving parts, cracked or broken parts, damaged electrical wiring, and any other condition that may affect its safe operation. If abnormal noise or vibration occurs, have the problem corrected before further use. Do not use damaged equipment.
2.Periodically recheck all nuts, bolts, and screws for tightness.
3.Applying a light coat of paste wax on the Saw Table allows the material being cut to glide smoothly across the Saw Table (53) surface. Buff the wax off with a clean cloth after application.
4.If the Power Cord (2) is worn, cut, or damaged in any way, replace it immediately.
6.Clean the Scroll Saw by using compressed air to blow off dirt and dust.
7.Store in a clean and dry location.
8.Over time, if the performance of the Scroll Saw diminishes, or it stops working completely, it may be necessary to replace the Carbon Brushes in the Motor (51) by removing the Carbon Brush Holder (84) and inspecting the Carbon Brushes (83). This procedure should be completed by a qualified technician. If the Carbon Brushes are not worn down, try cleaning the Carbon Brush tips with an ink eraser.
Lubrication
1.Lubricate the Oil Bushings (25) of Lower Rocker Arm (22) and Upper Rocker Arm (29) after the first 10 hours of use. After that, oil them every 50 hours of use, or whenever noise is heard from the Oil Bushings.
Caution: Do not attempt to oil the motor bearings or ser- vice the motor internal parts.
2.Carefully place the Scroll Saw on its side as shown below.
3.Squirt a few drips of light oil on the end of the Oil Bushings.
4.Leave the Scroll Saw in this position over night to allow the oil to seep in.
5.The next day, repeat steps 1 to 4 on the other side of the Scroll Saw.
6.Wipe up excess oil with a cloth.
