Mounting the Tool to a Bench
nOTE:
We highly recommend that you bolt this scroll saw securely to
a workbench to gain the maximum stability of your machine
and to prevent noise and vibration.
1.
Using the scroll saw as a template to mark the bench
through the mounting holes in the casting. Drill the bench
with a Ø10mm drill bit.
2.
Bolt the scroll saw on the bench with bolts, washes,
and nuts. Note that these fasteners are not supplied
with the machine. Placing a soft foam pad or carpet (not
supplied) between the saw and the workbench is highly
recommended to further reduce noise and vibration.
Connecting to Power Supply
Check the power supply and the plug used are in accordance
with your scroll saw. Have a look at the rating plate of the
motor or the rating on the scroll saw. Any changes should
always be carried out by a qualified electrician.
WARninG: This machine must be earthed.
It can cause an electrical shock to the machine if it is not
being properly earthed. Be sure that the power supply outlet
is earthed. If there is any doubt, please have it checked by a
qualified electrician.
WARninG: Avoid contact with the terminals on the plug
when installing (removing) the plug to (from) the power
supply outlet. Contact will cause a severe electrical
shock.
Using an Extension Lead
The use of any extension cord will cause some loss of the
power. To keep the minimum power loss and to prevent
overheating and motor burn-out, ask advice from a qualified
electrician to determine the minimum wire size of the
extension lead.
The extension cord should be equipped with an earthed type
plug that fits the power supply outlet at one end, and with an
earthed type socket that fits the plug of this machine at the
other end.
Operating the Tool
Read and understand the following items about your
scroll saw before attempting to use the machine.
Sawdust Blower (Fig. 7)
The sawdust blower (1) should be positioned point to the
blade and workpiece to blow sawdust out of the line-of sight
when cutting. It is not designed to blow all of the sawdust off
the table.
Variable Speed Switch (Fig. 8)
This saw is equipped with a variable speed dial. The blade
stroke rate may be adjusted by simply rotating the dial. To
increase speed, rotate dial clockwise. To reduce speed, rotate
dial counterclockwise.
Basic Scroll Saw Operation
nOTE:
The scroll saw is basically used for cutting curves.
1. This scroll saw is intended to cut woods and non-ferrous
metals. Refer to the Optional Accessories to choose a
correct blade for your workpiece. For intricate cutting, a
plain-end blade is recommended.
2.
Make sure the blade teeth point downwards toward the
table for proper cutting.
3.
Press the workpiece against the table.
4. Turn on the switch and guide the wood into the blade
slowly because the teeth of the blade are very small and
they can only remove wood when they are on the down
stroke.
5.
When using non-spiral blades, only feed the wood
forwards. Take extra care not to bend or twist the blade
while cutting in order to maximize blade life.
6.
Best results are achieved when cutting wood less than
one inch thick. When the wood is thicker than one inch,
guide the wood very slowly into the blade.
7.
Be prepared to compensate for the blades' tendency,
follow the wood grain to get accurate cutting.
8.
When cutting off material which is irregular in cross
section it could pinch the blade before the cut is
completed. A piece of molding, for example, must lay on
the table and not be permitted to rock while being cut.
9.
Using with caution when cutting off round material such
as dowel rods, or tubing. They have a tendency to roll
while being cut and causing the blade to bite. Use a
V-block to control the piece.
10. Teeth on scroll saw blades wear out and as such must be
replaces frequently for best cutting result.
nOTE:
When performing inside cutting, drill a Ø3mm hole in the inner
section of the part to be cut out, and then insert the blade
through the hole. Then reinstall the blade.
Blade Storage (Fig. 9)
The blade storage (1) is located on the left rear side of the
scroll saw body. The blade storage can conveniently store
your hex wrenches, and both Pin and Plain end blades.
Angle Cutting (Fig.10)
WARNING! To avoid injury from an accidental starting,
always turn the switch OFF ("0") and remove the power
plug from the power source before changing the blades.
1.
Lay out or secure design to workpiece (1).
2.
Move the blade guard assembly (2) to the highest
position by loosening the height adjustment knob (3) and
retighten.
3. Tilt the table (4) to the desired angle by loosening the
bevel lock handle (5) and move the table to the
properangle, using the degree scale (6) and the pointer
(7).
4. Tighten the bevel lock knob (5).
5.
Follow items 3-7 under BASIC SCROLL SAW
OPERATION.
