• Install the blade with the teeth pointing downward.
• Do not start the saw with the workpiece pressing against the
blade. Slowly feed the workpiece into the moving blade.
• Use caution when cutting round or irregularly shaped work
pieces. Round items will roll and irregularly shaped work pieces
can pinch the blade.
4. To avoid injury when operating the scroll saw:
• If you are not thoroughly familiar with the operation of scroll
saws, obtain advice from a qualified person.
• Before starting the saw, make sure the blade tension is
correct. Recheck and adjust tension as needed.
• Make sure the table is locked into position before starting
the saw.
• Do not use dull or bent blades.
• When cutting a large workpiece, make sure the material is
supported at the table height.
• Turn the saw OFF and unplug the power cord if the blade
jams in the workpiece while being backed out. This condition
is usually caused by sawdust clogging the line you are cutting.
If this happens, turn OFF the scroll saw and unplug the power
cord. Wedge open the workpiece and back out the blade.
• Do not use if blade guard is damaged or missing.
• Do not clear away cut-off pieces until blade has stopped
and the saw is turned off.
