Switching on/off (Fig. 1+15)
It is possible to switch the saw on by pressing the
green „I" button (6).
In order to switch the saw off again, it is necessary to
press the red „0" button (6).
The red warning light (a) indicates whether the ma-
chine is switched on or off. The machine is switched
on when this lights up. (The machine only starts up in
the foot switch mode once the pedal is actuated, the
red warning light illuminates anyway.)
You can only switch between foot switch and con-
tinuous operation when the red warning light is not
illuminated. If necessary, switch machine off first by
pressing the red button "0" (6).
Make sure you are aware of what operating mode
(pedal/continuous operation) your machine is in befo-
re switching it on.
Beware of unintentional actuation of the foot switch.
Set the pedal (11) on the ground. The machine can
be switched on/off in pedal mode when the pedal is
actuated. A foot switch for switching on/off is practi-
cal, especially for internal cuttings, since your hands
are kept free and you can fully concentrate on the
work piece under the scroll saw. However, it cannot
influence the speed.
With the continuously variable electronic speed con-
trol (5), the cutting speed can be increased by turning
to the right or reduced by turning to the left.
Lighting system (8) (Fig.1+17)
The lighting system can be switched on by pressing
the switch (b) on the lamp.
The lighting system is switched off if the switch is
pressed again.
To change the batteries (2x AAA R03 1.5), open
the battery compartment on the bottom of the light
by removing the three screws (c) using a Phillips
screwdriver.
Insert the new batteries. Dispose of the old batteries
properly.
Fit the cover of the battery compartment in reverse
order.

9. Maintenance

Warning: In the interests of operational safety,
always switch off the saw and remove the mains
plug before carrying out maintenance work.
General
Wipe chips and dust off the machine from time to time us-
ing a cloth.
Re-application of the wax coating on the workbench
makes feeding the workpiece to the blade easier.
Motor
The mains cable should be replaced immediately if
pulled out, cut or damaged in any other way.
Do not lubricate the motor bearings or internal parts!
14 / 20
Saw arm bearings
Lubricate the saw arm bearings every 50 hours. Pro-
ceed as follows (Fig. 18).
• Turn the saw to the side
• Apply a generous amount of SAE 20 oil to the shaft
end and bronze bearings.
• Let the lubricant oil work in overnight.
• Repeat the procedure the next day on the other
side of the saw.
There are no parts inside the equipment which requi-
re additional maintenance.

10. Storage

Store the device and its accessories in a dark, dry
and frost-proof place that is inaccessible to children.
The optimum storage temperature is between 5 and
30˚C. Store the electrical tool in its original packaging.

11. Electrical connection

The installed electric motor is completely wired ready
for operation.
The customer's connection to the power supply sys-
tem, and any extension cables that may be used,
must conform with local regulations.
IMPORTANT REMARK:
The motor is automatically switched off in the event
of an overload. The motor can be switched on again
after a cooling down period that can vary.
DEFECTIVE ELECTRICAL CONNECTION CABLES
Electrical connection cables often suffer insulation
damage.
Possible causes are:
• Pinch points when connection cables are run
through window or door gaps.
• Kinks resulting from incorrect attachment or laying
of the connection cable.
• Cuts resulting from running over the connecting
cable.
• Insulation damage resulting from forcefully pulling
out of the wall socket.
• Cracks through aging of insulation.
Such defective electrical connection cables must not
be used as the insulation damage makes them ex-
tremely hazardous.
