Safety
Warning:
Before using the scroll saw read and understand these important
safety instructions:
- Wear
proper eye protection.
- Never
reach beneath the table while the scroll saw is running.
- When
removing the blade, release the blade tension before loosening
the chuck locking pins.
- Never
attempt to cut a radius that's too tight for the blade.
- Never
turn on the scroll saw with stock pressed against the blade.
- Never
cut extremely small stock. Cut small components from larger
stock.
- Adjust
and lock the holddown, check blade tension and adjust the
blade backup as required for each operation.
- Install
the blade with the teeth pointing toward the table.
- Before
you turn on the machine, turn the drive shaft by hand to
be sure the blade moves freely.
- Do
not force stock against the blade or try to cut too quickly.
- Keep
the table tilt locked.
- Do
not use worn or damaged blades, or a worn blade backup.
- When
mounting the scroll saw on the Mark V, secure the accessory
mount lock, power plant lock, and the scroll saw mounting
tubes.
