1.
Remove the saw blade (22) as described in 8.1.3.
2.
Remove the depressor (24) from the saw blade
guard (5) by loosening the screw (25) completely
(see fig. 6).
3.
Insert the holder (4) into the opening (see fig. 7).
4.
Fasten the holder (4) with the knurled screw (3).
5.
Install the depressor (24). Insert the screw (25) into
the holder (4) and fasten it.
6.
Insert the saw blade (22) again as described in 8.1.4.
7.
Ensure that the depressor (24) does not touch the
saw blade (22).
The depressor (24) must always be adjusted according
to the workpiece height. However, the workpiece should
not be clamped, but should rather be able to move freely.
The depressor (24) is used to lock the workpiece so
that it cannot swing upwards, which would destroy the
saw blade (22).
8.6
Chip extraction (Fig. 13)
ATTENTION: Only operate the device with an extrac-
tion system.
Connect a suitable chip extraction system (not included
in the scope of delivery) to the suction connection (15)
(see fig. 13, sample figure).
ATTENTION: Check and clean the suction channels at
regular intervals.

Operation
m Attention!
Always make sure the product is fully assembled
before commissioning!
9.1
General information
• 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 (16)
• Switching on: Press the "I" button.
• Switching off: Press the "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
Work lamp operation (Fig. 4)
1.
Switch the machine on as described in 9.2.
2.
The work lamp (20) may not be switched on/and off
with the work lamp on/off switch (21).
9.4
Speed regulator (Fig. 2)
The speed regulator (18) 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 speed regulator (18) clockwise to increase the
stroke rate. Turning anti-clockwise lowers the stroke
rate.
9.5
Operating modes (Fig. 1, 2)
The scroll saw is able to be operated manually or via
the foot pedal.
9.5.1 Manual control
1.
Ensure that the machine is switched on.
2.
Set the operating mode selection switch (17) to the
"M" position to operate the saw manually.
3.
Use the speed regulator (18) to set the appropriate
stroke rate for the material (see 9.4).
