Mounting Scroll Saw
The scroll saw can be mounted to a workbench two ways:
•Permanent mounting can be accomplished by bolting the base to the workbench.
Because workbench table thickness can vary, fasteners have not been supplied.
•Temporary mounting can be accomplished by securing the base of the scroll saw to a piece of 3⁄4" plywood that measures at least 21" x 14". The scroll saw/plywood assembly can then be temporarily clamped to a work- bench or other suitable working surface.
Vibration caused by operating the scroll saw can be reduced by placing a foam pad or piece of carpet between the saw base and the work- bench.
UNPLUG POWER CORD before you do any assem- bly or adjustment tasks! Otherwise, serious per- sonal injury to you or oth- ers may occur!
Read and understand this entire instruction manual before performing any operations with your machine. Serious personal injury may occur if safety and operational informa- tion is not understood and
followed.
Table Prep
To prepare the table surface for workpieces, do these steps:
