RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION (Continued)
KEEP TOOL DRY, CLEAN, AND FREE FROM OIL AND GREASE. Always use a clean cloth when cleaning. Never use brake fluids, gasoline,
A LARGE PIECE OF MATERIAL SHOULD BE SUPPORTED while cutting. To minimize risk of blade pinching and kickback, always support long workpieces. Saw may slip, walk or slide while cutting long or heavy boards.
BEFORE MAKING A CUT, BE SURE ALL
ADJUSTMENTS ARE SECURE.
•BEFORE CHANGING THE SETUP, REMOVING COVERS, GUARDS OR BLADE, UNPLUG THE SAW.
DO NOT FEED THE MATERIAL TOO QUICKLY
while cutting. Do not force the workpiece against the blade.
NEVER CUT MORE THAN ONE WORKPIECE AT A TIME. If making a stacked cut, all of the pieces must be secured to each other with masking tape or double stick tape to make one workpiece. Do not put more than one workpiece on the saw table at a time. Always hold the work firmly against the table. See page 18.
AVOID CUTTING NAILS. Inspect for and remove all nails from lumber before cutting.
NEVER PERFORM LAYOUT, ASSEMBLY, OR SETUP WORK ON THE TABLE while the
cutting tool is operating.
NEVER TOUCH BLADE or other moving parts during use.
NEVER START A TOOL WHEN THE BLADE IS IN CONTACT WITH THE WORKPIECE. Clear
the table of debris before turning your scrollsaw
on.
ALLOW THE MOTOR TO COME UP TO FULL
SPEED before starting a cut.
FIRMLY CLAMP OR BOLT your scroll saw to a firm, level workbench or table. The most comfort-
able saw table height is at approximateFy hip height.
•AVOID AWKWARD OPERATIONS AND HAND POSITIONS where a sudden slip could cause your hand to move into the blade. ALWAYS make sure you have good balance. Do not cut pieces of material that are too small to hold comfortablyin your hand.
•REPLACEMENT PARTS. All repairs, whether electrical or mechanical, should be made by qualified service technician at a Sears store or repair center.
_i, WARNING: When servicing use only identical Craftsman replacement parts. Use of any other
parts may create a hazard or cause product
damage.
•NEVER USE IN AN EXPLOSIVE ATMO- SPHERE. Normal sparkingof the motor could ignite fumes.

Do not rush.
MAKE SURE THE WORK AREA HAS AMPLE LIGHTING to see the work and that no obstruc- tionswill interfere with safe operation BEFORE performingany work using your saw.
ALWAYS TURN OFF SAW before disconnecting
it, to avoid accidental starting when reconnecting to power supply. NEVER leave the scroll saw
unattended while connected to a power source.
_L WARNING: Do not allow familiarity with your saw make you careless. Remember that a
careless fraction of a second is sufficientto inflict
