Installing Plain End Blades

The V-notches of the upper and lower blade holders are designed to hold pin-end blades. However, with the use of the blade adapters, plain end blades that do not have the mounting pins can be used with your scroll saw.

To install a plain end blade, do these steps:

 

1.DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!

2.Rotate the blade tension knob counterclockwise to decrease the blade tension.

3.Remove the table insert.

4.Loosen the blade adapter set screws to allow the saw blade ends to slide through the adapters, as illustrated in Figure 7.

Note: The set screws can be threaded into either set of adapter holes depending on whether side cutting or straight cutting is desired.

5.Thread one set screw in until it just makes contact with the blade. Keep the other set screw loose for now, as illustrated in Figure 7.

6.Without letting the adapters slip off the ends of the blade, place them in the indents on the top arm, as illustrated in Figure 8, with the set screws that are in contact with the blade facing down.

Note: Performing Step 6 will correctly set the overall length of the assembly to properly fit on the blade holders.

7.Fully tighten the top adapter set screws to firmly secure the blade with the adapters.

8.Slide one end of the blade assembly through the table hole and place the adapter over the mounting arm of the blade holder, then press the upper blade holder down and mount the other adapter over its mounting arm (see Figure 9).

9.Replace the table insert, then properly tension the blade (refer to Adjusting Blade Tension on Page 17 for detailed instructions).
