Assembly and adjustments (continued)
Bench mounting the saw
Before operating the saw, it must be firmly mounted to a workbench or another rigid frame.
Use the base of the saw to mark and pre-drill the mounting holes.
If the saw is to be used in one location, permanently secure it to the work surface using wood
screws if mounting to wood. Use bolts, washers, and nuts if mounting into metal.
To reduce noise and vibration, install a soft foam pad (not supplied) between the scroll saw and the
workbench.
Note: the mounting hardware is not included.
WARNING: to reduce the risk of injury:
• When carrying the saw, hold it close to your body to avoid injury to your back. Bend your
knees when lifting the saw.
• Carry the saw by the base. Do not carry the saw by the power cord.
• Secure the saw in a position where people cannot stand, sit, or walk behind it. Debris thrown
from the saw could injure people standing, sitting, or walking behind it.
• Secure the saw on a firm, level surface where the saw cannot rock and there is adequate
room for handling and properly supporting the work piece.
Blade guard foot adjustment (Fig. 7 and 8)
When cutting at angles, the blade guard foot should be adjusted so
it is parallel to the table and rests flat above the work piece.
1. To adjust, loosen the screw (2), tilt the foot (1) so it is
parallel to the table, and tighten the screw.
2. Loosen the height adjustment knob to raise or lower the
foot until it just rests on top of the work piece. Tighten the
knob.
