Specification - Axminster AW405SS Operating Instructions Manual

1. Wear safety goggles as protection against flying wood chips
and saw dust. In many cases, a full face shield is even better
protection. A dust mask is also recommended to keep saw
dust out of your lungs.
2. The scroll saw must be bolted securely to a stand or work
bench. If the saw has a tendency to move during certain
operations, bolt the stand or workbench to the floor.
3. A solid wood workbench is stronger and more stable
than a workbench with a plywood table.
4. This scroll saw is for indoor use only.
5. Do not cut pieces of material which are too small
to be held by hand.
6. Clear the work table of all objects except the work piece
(tools, scraps, rulers etc.) before turning the saw on.
7. Make sure the blades' teeth are pointing down, toward
the table, and that the blade tension is correct.
8. When cutting a large piece of material, support it at the
height of the table.
9. Do not feed the work piece through the blade too fast.
Feed only as fast as the blade will cut.
10. Keep your fingers away from the blade. Use a push stick
as you near the end of the cut.

SPECIFIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR SCROLL SAWS
11. Take care when cutting a work piece which is irregular in
cross section. Moulding for example must lie flat, and not
'rock'on the table as it is being cut. A suitable support must
be used.
12. Take care when backing off a work piece from the blade,
as the blade may bind in the kerf. In this event, switch OFF
the machine and disconnect from the supply. Wedge open
the kerf and withdraw the work piece.
13. Switch off the saw, and make sure the blade has come to a
complete stop before clearing sawdust or off-cuts from the
table.
14. Make sure there are no nails or foreign objects in the part of
the work piece to be sawn.
15. Be extra cautious with very large or small, or irregularly
shaped work pieces.
16. Set up the machine and make all adjustments with the
power OFF, and disconnected from the supply.
17. DO NOT operate the machine with the covers off. They
must all be in place and securely fastened when performing
any operation.
18. Be sure to use the correct blade size and type.
19. Use ONLY approved replacement saw blades. Contact your
local Axminster Tool Centre for advice. The use of inferior
blades may increase the risk of injury.
