SETUP AND ADJUSTMENT
The scroll saw comes with the blade assembled. Please
follow the instruction below on how to tension your saw.
Tensioning the Blade
Check that the blade is under tension. If the blade is loose, turn
the blade tensioning knob to the rear of the arm to take up the
slack then turn the knob one full turn clockwise. Check that
the blade is sufficiently tensioned by pinging the blade, see fig
05-06.
NOTE: Before turning the knob one full turn, place a
positioning mark on the knob to make sure you don't
over tension the blade, see fig 04.
WARNING! DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN
THE BLADE OTHERWISE THE BLADE
WILL BREAK.

Setting the Table
1. Place an engineer's square on the table and position it
up-against the blade, making sure that the square is not in
contact with any of the teeth. Check that the blade is
perpendicular (90˚) to the table, see fig 07.
2. If adjustment is required, loosen the table clamping knob
and rotate the table until correct. Re-tighten the knob to secure
the table, see fig 08.
3. Check that the scale pointer is pointing at ZERO degrees
on the scale. If not, loosen the Phillips screw and adjust
pointer until correct, re-tighten the screw, see fig 09.
