ASSEMBLINg TABLE
Your scroll saw comes fully assembled except for the
table and blade. To install the table, first insert the pin at
the back of the arm into the hole in the back of the table
(Figure 3). Push the table until its back surface is flush
against the arm and the pin is fully inserted in the table
(Figure 4).
Using the hex wrench packed with your scroll saw,
securely attach the table to the bevel scale by tightening
the bolts shown in Figure 5.
INSTALLINg THE BLAdE
To reduce the risk of injury, turn unit off
and disconnect it from power source before installing
and removing accessories, before adjusting or when
making repairs. An accidental start-up can cause injury.
The blade is held in place by the thumbscrew blade
clamps attached to the top and bottom arms of the scroll
saw (Figure 6).
Before installing a blade, make sure the blade tension
lever is moved fully to the right as shown in Figure 7.
Next, loosen, but do not unscrew, the top and bottom
thumbscrews (Figure 6). Thread the blade through the
hole in table, with the teeth facing toward the front of the
saw.
NOTE: Scroll saws cut on the downstroke, so it is
essential that teeth face forward and down.
Insert the blade into the bottom blade clamp and securely
tighten the thumbscrew (Figure 6). Next, insert the top of
the blade into the top blade clamp and securely tighten
the top thumbscrew. (Figure 6)

THUMBSCREW
Properly adjust the tension of the blade before operating
your scroll saw. (See: Blade Tension Lever section of
this manual.)
Use only 5" (127 mm) plain end scroll saw replacement
blades.
BLAdE TENSION LEVER
Move the blade tension lever (Figure 7) to the left to
increase tension on the blade.
The proper degree of tension varies with different blade
sizes. If you are frequently breaking blades, decrease
tension on the blade.
As you become more accustomed to operating your
scroll saw, you will become more proficient in fine-tuning
blade tension. Practice on scrap material when possible.
Remove the blade or release tension on the blade when
not using your scroll saw for an extended period.
