Fretsaw Operating Characteristics

Cutting Intricate Patterns:

The scroll saw’s unique ability is cutting intricate curves

which other saws cannot do. A scroll saw can also

be used for straight line cutting such as cross cuts,

ripping and bevels. The following is a list of points to

remember when using a scroll saw.

1. The saw does not cut wood by itself. You feed the

workpiece into the blade, letting the blade cut the

wood as you move the piece ahead.

2. You must guide the wood into the blade SLOWLY,

because the teeth are very small, and cut ONLY on the

down stroke. If you push the wood into the blade too

rapidly, you can easily break the blade.

3. Although the capacity of the saw accepts wood up

to 2” thick, better results are obtained with wood no

more than 1” thick. For wood thicker than 1”, you must

guide the wood into the blade very slowly, taking care

not to bend or twist the blade.

4. The teeth on the blade will wear out sooner or later.

The blade must therefore be replaced often to obtain

the best cutting results. A blade will stay sharp for half

an hour to 2 hours of continuous running, depending

on the material being cut.

5. Be aware that the blade has a tendency to follow

the grain of the wood. You can compensate for this by

watching the grain carefully and guiding the wood

past the saw blade.

6. If you are not familiar with scroll saws, there will

naturally be a learning period - a period to learn the

saw itself, and a period to learn how the wood and saw

work together. Expect some blade breakages, scroll saw

blades are fairly fragile not the same types of blade you

ﬁnd on a handsaw or circular saw.

One capability a scroll saw has that other saws do not,

is cutting intricate patterns inside a workpiece. To do

this, you should adopt the following procedure.

1. Drill a 1/4” hole in the middle of the workpiece, in a

area which will not be a part of the ﬁnished object.

2. Switch off and unplug the machine from the supply.

3. Remove the blade from the machine. (See pages

17,18 & 19).

4. Place the workpiece on the table, with the 1/4” hole

over the access hole in the table.

5. Replace the blade, through the hole in the workpiece,

(with the teeth pointing downwards), and re-tension

the blade.

6. Plug the saw back in.

Check to ensure that the workpiece is not touching

the blade before switching ON.
