POWER CONNECTIONS

A separate electrical circuit should be used for your machines. This circuit should not be less than #12 wire and should be protected with a 20 Amp time lag fuse. If an extension cord is used, use only 3-wire extension cords which have 3-prong grounding type plugs and matching receptacle which will accept the machine’s plug. Before connecting the machine to the power line, make sure the switch (s) is in the “OFF” position and be sure that the electric current is of the same characteristics as indicated on the machine. All line connections should make good contact. Running on low voltage will damage the machine.

Do not expose the machine to rain or operate the machine in damp locations.

MOTOR SPECIFICATIONS

Your machine is wired for 115/230 Volt,60 HZ alternating current. Before connecting the machine to the power source, make sure the switch is in the “OFF” position.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This machine must be grounded while in use to protect the operator from electric shock.

1.All grounded, cord-connected machines:

In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This machine is equipped with an electric cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

Do not modify the plug provided - if it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in risk of electric shock. The conductor with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the equipment-grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment- grounding conductor to a live terminal.

Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the machine is properly grounded.

Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong grounding type plugs and matching 3-conductor receptacles that accept the machine’s plug, as shown in Fig. A.

Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately.

2.Grounded, cord-connected machines intended for use on a supply circuit having a nominal rating less than 150 volts:

If the machine is intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet that looks like the one illustrated in Fig. A, the machine will have a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in Fig. A. A temporary adapter, which looks like the adapter illustrated in Fig. B, may be used to connect this plug to a matching 2-conductor receptacle as shown in Fig. B if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician. The green-colored rigid ear, lug, and the like, extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box. Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in place with a metal screw.

NOTE: In Canada, the use of a temporary adapter is not permitted by the Canadian Electric Code.

In all cases, make certain that the receptacle in question is properly grounded. If you are not sure, have a qualified electrician check the receptacle.

36-714B specifications

The Delta 36-714B is a powerful and versatile scroll saw designed for both amateur woodworkers and seasoned professionals. This model stands out due to its precision, durability, and user-friendly features, making it a popular choice for those who need to create intricate designs with ease.

One of the main features of the Delta 36-714B is its robust 1.3-amp motor, which provides ample power for cutting through a variety of materials, including wood and plastic. The saw operates at variable speeds, ranging from 400 to 1,750 strokes per minute, allowing users to adjust the speed according to the specific application and material thickness. This level of control is essential for creating clean, precise cuts, particularly for intricate patterns.

The Delta 36-714B comes equipped with a large 16-inch throat, providing ample space for cutting larger projects without the need for constant repositioning. The table, made of high-quality cast iron, is both sturdy and reliable, ensuring stability during operation. The table also tilts up to 45 degrees, enabling users to make bevel cuts with ease. This feature is particularly useful for creating angled cuts or for complex projects that require varying angles.

One of the standout technologies in the Delta 36-714B is its patented blade tensioning system, which allows for quick and easy blade changes without the need for additional tools. This feature not only saves time but also enhances productivity, enabling users to switch between blades suitable for different materials quickly. Additionally, the saw is designed to accept both pin-end and plain-end blades, providing versatility in blade choices depending on the desired project.

Another noteworthy characteristic is the integrated dust blower, which helps to keep the cutting line clear of debris, allowing for improved visibility and accuracy. The included LED light illuminates the cutting area, enhancing precision work, especially in low-light conditions.

Overall, the Delta 36-714B is a well-engineered scroll saw that combines power, precision, and ease of use. Its features and technologies make it an excellent choice for woodworkers looking to tackle detailed projects with confidence. Whether for hobbyists or professionals, this scroll saw proves to be a valuable addition to any workshop.
