FASTENING SCROLL SAW TO SUPPORTING SURFACE

WARNING: Your scroll saw MUST be securely fastened to a stand or workbench using the holes in the four rubber feet, three of which are shown at (A) Fig. 16. IMPORTANT: When mounting the saw to a stand or workbench DO NOT over-tighten mounting bolts. Leave some cushion in the four rubber feet (A) for absorbing noise and vibration.

An alternate method of securing the scroll saw is to clamp the front and side ledges of the scroll saw to a supporting surface with C-clamps.

IMPORTANT: If there is any tendency for the stand or workbench to move during operation, the stand or work-bench must be fastened to the floor.
