Tilting Table; Removing The Blade; Maintenance - Ferm FZ-40/16 Gebrauchsanweisung

INSTALLING THE BLADE
Always remember to disconnect the machi-
! ne from the power source to avoid injury
before installing the blade.
1. Select the correct blade according to the wood
material to be cut.
2. Loosen the blade tension knob.
3. To install the blade, insert the blade with the teeth
pointing downward through the table slot until the
blade pin (or saw-blade adaptor) can be hooked by
the bottom blade holder.
4. Pull upward so that the blade pin (or saw-blade
adaptor) can be hooked by the top blade holder.
5. Tighten the blade tension knob until the proper
tension is obtained.
6. Remove all tools or objects from the blade area.
7. Turn the power on and allow the blade to run, before
actual cutting operation is performed. Check that the
blade runs smoothly.
With type FZ-40/16 two saw blade adaptors are
supplied. These saw-blade adaptors can be used
for saw blades intended for fretsaws.
- Fix the saw blade adaptors to the saw blade (inten-
ded for fretsaw). Be sure that the internal wrench
bolts are screwed both the same amount, so that
the saw blade will not be installed wrong and
would result in a not so accurate sawing job.
- Place the whole thing in blade holder, see "Instal-
ling the blade".
NOTE: In the event of blade breakage, replacement
should be performed as instructed above.

7. TILTING TABLE

The table on this scroll saw may be tilted 45° maxi-
mum. To tilt the table, follow these instructions:
1. Loosen the table tilt fixing lever located under the
table;
2. Tilt the table with your hand to the angle required;
3. A graduated scale is provided for indicating the
table angle degree;
4. Tighten the table tilt locking lever.
8. BASIC OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. The scroll sawblade cuts on its downward stroke.
2. Feed the workpiece slowly with a minimum of
pressure and smoothly towards the sawblade.
3. Care should be taken to hold the workpiece firmly
against the table with your hands and feed the
workpiece slowly to prevent the blade from ben-
ding or twisting.
4
4. Always keep the blade sharp for best cutting result.
5. Use correct blade size. Selection of blade depends
on the wood material and the curve to be cut. In
general, the thinner and harde the wood material,
the finer the blade teeth. Narrow blades should be
selected for cutting sharp curves.

9. REMOVING THE BLADE

Always remember to disconnect the machine
!
from the power source to avoid injury before
removing the blade.
1. Loosen the blade tension knob until the spring is
completely released.
2. Slightly depress the top blade holder and slightly
lift the blade upward to facilitate removing the bla-
de from the holder.
3. Slightly lower and move the blade forward to free
it from the bottom blade holder.
4. Remove the blade by pulling it upward.

10. MAINTENANCE

While maintaining and cleaning the sawma-
! chine pull the plug from the mainssocket.
Never use water or other agressive liquids whi-
le cleaning electrical parts of the machine.
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE OF THE MACHINE
WILL PREVENT UNNECESSARY PROBLEMS!
- Keep the sawingtable clean to maintain accuracy
while sawing.
- Keep the outside of the machine clean so all parts can
move freely and without any wear to all the parts.
11. MALFUNCTIONS
Below we have listed a number of possible causes and
corresponding solutions in case the machine does not
function as it should:
1. The engine overheats above 70° Celsius.
The engine is overloaded:

The engine has a defect:
- Contact your local Ferm dealer to have the tool
inspected and/or repaired.
2. The machine stops immediately after swit-
ching on.
Interruption in the electric circuit:
- Check the circuit (of the mains voltage).
Defective switch:
