TABLE INSERT

The table insert (A) can be assembled to the saw table with the opening in the insert pointing to the front of the table, as shown in Fig. 7, or to the right as shown in Fig. 8.

With the table in the level position, 90° to the blade, the insert (A) should be positioned, as shown in Fig. 7. This allows for the blade to be pivoted forward after it is unclamped from the top blade holder, enabling you to quickly insert the blade into the next hole in a pattern when doing inside-cutting, as you will see later in this manual.

When tilting the table for bevel cutting operations the insert (A) should be positioned as shown in Fig. 8. This allows for clearance of the blade when tilting the table.

A table insert blank (B) Fig. 9, is supplied as standard equipment with your scroll saw and can be used when cutting very small workpieces to give added support to the bottom of the workpiece. Cut a slot into the blank and replace the standard insert (A) with the blank (B). The slot cut into the blank (B) will only be as wide as the blade giving maximum support to the bottom of the workpiece. Adhesive backed spacer pads (C) are also supplied for adjusting the table insert height relative to the table surface. Place three pads an equal distance apart on a cleaned surface to be applied to the blank insert. Pads can be stacked in order to achieve desired insert height.
