Sawing
Hold material firmly against table. Always feed material toward the
blade. Feed the workpiece fast enough to allow the blade to cut, but
do not force material into the blade too quickly.
Beveling
The table of your scroll saw bevels 45 ° left and right. A detent is set at
0 °. To bevel the scroll saw table, loosen the bevel lock knob
(Figure 9), and bevel the table to the desired setting, indicated by the
bevel pointer.
NOTE: Before tilting the table for bevel cuts of 45°,check the
clearance around the lower thumbscrew. To facilitate an accurate 45
cut the thumbscrew and setscrew may need to change places. On the
setscrew side, sufficient clearance is available.
Fretwork
INSIDE CUTS
Your scroll saw is ideal for making inside cuts for detail work. To make
an inside cut:
1. Drill a pilot hole in your workpiece.
2. Make sure the blade tension lever is moved fully to the right
3. Loosen the top thumbscrew blade clamp.
4. Leaving the blade held in place by the bottom blade clamp, lift
the top arm of the scroll saw, as shown in Figure 10. Thread the
saw blade through the pilot hole in your workpiece and reattach
the blade by tightening the top thumbscrew.
5.Readjust the blade tension and begin the inside cut.
Alternately, you can loosen the bottom thumbscrew blade clamp in
step 3 above, and thread the blade through the top of the workpiece.
