If the scroll saw is switched on and the power sup-
ply in the mains is interrupted, the scroll saw remains
switched off, even if the power supply is re-estab-
lished. Press the "I" button to switch it on.
10.3 Stroke rate controller
The stroke rate controller allows you to set the stroke
rate according to the material to be cut. In case of
soft material, we recommend high stroke rates, while
strokes rates should be kept low for hard material.
Turn the stroke rate controller clockwise to increase
the stroke rate. Turning anti-clockwise lowers the
stroke rate.
10.4 Inside cuts
Warning: Switch off the saw and remove the
mains supply plug before installing saw blades
in order to avoid injuries caused by unintentional
activation of the saw.
This saw is suited also to inside cuts not starting at
the edge of the work piece. Proceed as follows:
• Drill a 6 mm hole in the work piece.
• Loosen the blade tensioner and release the ten-
sion in the blade.
• Place the bore hole over the saw blade slot in the
work bench.
• Install the saw blade through the hole in the work
piece and through the work blade slot, and fasten
the blade to the holders.
• When you have completed the inside cut, remove
the saw blade and then remove the workpiece from
the bench.
10.5 Flexible shaft, fig. 12-14
• Remove protective cap (O) from the threaded
bushing (fig. 13).
• Place flexible shaft onto the threaded bushing (fig.
14).
• Clamp tool in the drill chuck (D 3.2).
• Firmly hold threaded shaft at the handle and switch
on the speed control.
• Having finished the work, remove the flexible shaft
and place the protective cap in place.
Attention: When working with the flexible shaft,
cover the saw blade with the blade guard.
10.6 Mitre cutting
WARNING
Be especially careful when making mitre cuts. The
angle of the saw table makes it easier for the work-
piece to slip. There is a danger of injury.
1. To carry out mitre cuts adjust the distance of the
blade guard for worktable accordingly.
2. Swivel the saw table by loosening the locking le-
ver and tilting the table to the desired position.
3. Tighten the locking lever.

11. 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.
Damaged electrical connection cable
The insulation on electrical connection cables is of-
ten damaged.
This may have the following causes:
• Passage points, where connection cables are
passed through windows or doors.
• Kinks where the connection cable has been im-
properly fastened or routed.
• Places where the connection cables have been cut
due to being driven over.
• Insulation damage due to being ripped out of the
wall outlet.
• Cracks due to the insulation ageing.
Such damaged electrical connection cables must not
be used and are life-threatening due to the insulation
damage.
Check the electrical connection cables for damage
regularly. Make sure that the connection cable does
not hang on the power network during the inspection.
Electrical connection cables must comply with the
applicable VDE and DIN provisions.
Only use connection cables with the marking H 05
VV-F.
The printing of the type designation on the connec-
tion cable is mandatory.
AC motor
The mains voltage must be 220-240 V~.
Extension cables up to 25 m long must have a cross-
section of 1.5 mm
Connections and repairs of electrical equipment may
only be carried out by an electrician.
Please provide the following information in the event
of any enquiries:
• Current type of the motor
• Machine data - type plate
12. Transport
• Transport the power tool by lifting it on the recesses
provided for this on the frame and the engine cover.
• Never use the protective devices for handling or
transport.
• Make sure that the exposed part of the saw blade
is covered during transport, e. g. by the protective
device.
