1. Raise the blade guard foot (1) by loosening the
blade guard foot lock knob (2) on the left side of the
upper arm. Measure from the tip of the blade (3) to
the desired distance. Position the straight edge (4)
parallel to the blade at that distance.
2. Clamp the straight edge (4) to the table (5).
3. Recheck your measurements, using the workpiece to
be cut, and make sure the scrap wood (6) is secure.
4. Position the workpiece against the blade and place
the blade guard foot (1) slightly above the top surface
of the workpiece.
5. Secure the blade guard foot in place by tightening
the foot lock knob.
6. Remove the workpiece from the blade prior to turning
the scroll saw ON. Set the desired speed by turning
the control knob clockwise or counterclockwise.
CAUTION
!
In order to avoid uncontrollable lifting of the
workpiece and reduce blade breakage, do not turn
saw ON while the workpiece is against the blade.
7. Position the workpiece against the straight edge (4)
prior to touching the leading edge of the workpiece
against the blade (3).
8. Slowly feed the workpiece into the blade, guiding the
workpiece against the straight edge and press the
workpiece down against the table while cutting.
CAUTION
!
Do not force the leading edge of the workpiece into
the blade. The blade will deflect, reducing accuracy
of cut and may break.
9. When the cut is complete, move the trailing edge of
the workpiece beyond the blade guard foot. Turn the
scroll saw OFF.

sticks.
