• The saw table can be tilted up to a 45 degree
diagonal position, see Figure 2, or be left in the
horizontal position for your sawing needs.
• You can read off the approximate degree of angle by
using the angle scale located under the work bench.
For more exact adjustment, use scrap wood for some
saw tests and adjust the table angle, if necessary.
BLADE GUARD ASSEMBLY
Install the blade guard onto the drop foot fixing pole
as shown in the Parts Diagram on page 14.
• Secure the guard in place with the screw, washers
and nut provided with the guard.
• The safety guard can be rotated upward out of the
way when changing blades. Never remove the safety
blade guard when operating the saw.
ATTACH SHAVINGS BLOWER TUBE
• Install the loose end of the plastic tubing, that is pre-
installed on the metal blower pipe, to the top of the
bellow that is set on the front end of the top arm.
• The blower pipe can be adjusted towards the saw
blade to blow dust and shavings away from your cut
lines. The bellow and blower operate as soon as the
machine starts to operate.
MOUNTING THE SAW TO A WORKBENCH
For safe operation of the scroll saw, the machine
should be secured to a solid work surface or bench.
• A workbench made from solid wood is better than
one made of plywood, as interfering vibrations and
noise are more noticeable with plywood.
• The necessary tools and small parts for assembling
the saw on a workbench are not supplied with the
saw. However, use hardware similar to the following
list as shown in Figure 3:
1. Saw body
2. Foam rubber base
3. Work bench
4. Flat washer
4 Hexagonal bolts (6mm) 1/4-20 x length depends
on bench thickness
4 Flat seal (7mm) 9/32"
4 Washers (7mm) 9/32"
8 Hexagonal nuts (6 mm) 1/4-20
First of all, drill holes into the seating surface and then
insert the screws.
• A foam rubber base for reduction of noise is not
supplied with the saw either. However, we expressly
recommend that you use such a base to keep vibra-
tion and noise to a minimum. Ideal size for the rubber
base is about 400 x 240 mm (15-3/4'' x 9-1/2'').
