Operation
m Attention!
Always make sure the product is fully assembled
before commissioning!
9.1 General notes
• The saw does not cut wood by itself. The user makes
cutting possible by guiding the wood into the moving
saw blade.
• The teeth only cut the wood on the down stroke.
• The wood must be fed slowly into the saw blade as
the teeth of the saw blade are very small.
• Anyone who wants to use the saw requires a cer-
tain amount of learning time. During this time some
blades are sure to break.
• When cutting thick timbers, particular care must
be taken to ensure that the saw blade is not bent
or twisted.
• Working carefully will increase the service life of the
saw blade.
9.2 ON/OFF switch (15) (Fig. 2)
• Switching on: Press the green "I" button.
• Switching off: Press the red "0" button.
ATTENTION
The machine is equipped with a safety switch against
reactivation if the voltage drops.
If the scroll saw is switched on and the power supply
in the mains is interrupted, the scroll saw remains
switched off, even if the power supply is re-established.
Press the "I" button to switch it on.
9.3 Stroke rate controller (fig. 2)
The speed regulator (16) allows you to set the stroke rate
according to the material to be cut. In case of soft materi-
al, we recommend high stroke rates, while strokes rates
should be kept low for hard material. Turn the speed reg-
ulator (16) clockwise to increase the stroke rate. Turning
anti-clockwise lowers the stroke rate.
9.4 Making inside cuts
This scroll saw allows inside cuts in workpieces with-
out damaging the outside or the circumference of the
workpiece.
1.
Remove the saw blade (20) as described in 8.1.
2.
Drill a hole into the workpiece.
3.
Place the workpiece with the drilled hole over the
opening of the table inlay (24) on the saw table (6).
4.
Install the saw blade (20) (as described in 8.1)
through the drilled hole in the workpiece and set
the blade tension.
5.
After completing the inside cut, remove the saw
blade (20) from the blade holders (as described in
8.1).
6.
Remove the workpiece from the table.
9.5 Carrying out mitre cuts
(Fig. 14)
WARNING
Be particularly careful when making mitre cuts. The
incline of the saw table supports slipping. There is a
danger of injury.
1.
To carry out mitre cuts, adjust the distance be-
tween the saw blade guard (5) mounted to the re-
taining device (22) and the work table accordingly.
2.
Swivel the table by loosening the star grip screw
(13) and tilting the saw table (6) into the desired
position.
3.
Tighten the star grip screw (13).
9.6 Work lamp operation (Fig. 4)
• Press the on/off switch (19) to switch the work lamp
(18) on and off.
10. Electrical connection
The electrical motor installed is connected and
ready for operation. The connection complies with
the applicable VDE and DIN provisions.
The customer's mains connection as well as the
extension cable used must also comply with these
regulations.
