ADJUSTING CLAMPING ACTION OF UPPER BLADE HOLDER
Different widths of scroll saw blades will make it neces- sary to adjust the clamping action of the upper blade holder. It should be noted, however, that very little adjustment is necessary and very little clamping force is required to hold the blade satisfactorily.
1.Move the chuck locking lever (A) Fig. 30, to the rear (open) position, as shown.
2.Turn locknut (C) Fig. 30, clockwise to tighten and counterclockwise to loosen the clamping action of the, blade holder. Very little movement of locknut (C) will be necessary.

The table on your scroll saw can be tilted 45 degrees to the left for bevel cutting operations by loosening table lock handle (A) Fig. 31, tilt the table to the desired angle and tighten lock handle (A).
When bevel cutting, the holddown (B) Fig. 32, can be adjusted to lay flat on the stock by loosening screw (C) and tilting the holddown (B) accordingly. Then tighten screw (C).
