11.This saw uses 5 in. long pin or plain end type blades. 12.Blades wear faster when cutting plywood or
particle board which is very abrasive. Angle cutting in hardwoods reduces blade tooth set faster due to the blade deflection.
FREEHAND CUTTING (FIG. U)
WARNING
To avoid injury from an accidental start, make sure the switch is in the OFF (O) position and the plug is not connected to the power source outlet.
1.Lay out desired design, or secure design to the workpiece (1).
2.Raise the blade guard foot (2) by loosening the blade guard foot lock knob (3).
3.Position the workpiece against the blade and place the blade guard foot slightly above the top surface of the workpiece.
4.Secure the blade guard foot (2) by tightening the blade guard foot lock knob (3).
5.Remove the workpiece from the blade prior to turning the scroll saw ON (I). Pull the variable speed control knob out and set the desired speed by turning the control knob clockwise or counterclockwise. CAUTION: In order to avoid uncontrollable lifting of the workpiece and to reduce blade breakage, do not turn saw ON (I) while the workpiece is against the blade.
6.When turning the scroll saw ON (I), position the workpiece against scrap wood prior to touching the leading edge of the workpiece against the blade.
7.Slowly feed the workpiece into the blade by guiding and pressing the workpiece down against the table. CAUTION: Do not force the leading edge of the workpiece into the blade. The blade will deflect, reducing accuracy of cut, and may break.
8.When the cut is complete, move the trailing edge of the workpiece beyond the blade guard foot. Turn the scroll saw OFF (O).
