[. . . ] If lag bolts are being used, make sure they are long enough to go through holes in the saw base and the material the saw is being mounted to. If machine bolts are being used, make sure they are long enough to go through holes in the saw base, the material the saw is being mounted to, and the washers and nuts. Note: It may be necessary to countersink washers and nuts on the bottom side of mounting board. MOUNTING SCROLL SAW TO WORKBENCH WARNING: To avoid serious personal injury from unexpected tool movement, always securely mount scroll saw to a workbench. If the scroll saw is to be used in a permanent application, we recommend that you secure it in a permanent location such as a workbench. When mounting the saw to a workbench, holes should be drilled through the supporting surface of the workbench. I Each hole in the base of the saw should be bolted securely using machine bolts, washers, and nuts (not included). Bolts should be of sufficient length to accommodate the saw base, washers, nuts, and the thickness of the workbench. Using the saw base as a pattern, locate and mark the holes where the scroll saw is to be mounted. I Place scroll saw on workbench aligning holes in the saw base with the holes drilled in the workbench. I Insert all four bolts (not included) and tighten securely with washers and nuts (not included). Supporting surface where scroll saw is mounted should be examined carefully after mounting to insure that no movement during use can result. If the table stops somewhere other than zero, then adjust the zero degree stop. I To access the zero degree stop, loosen the table lock knob, and tilt the table with the right side all the way down. Loosen the hex nut and rotate the hex bolt to raise or lower the bolt as needed to adjust the zero degree stop. Now, by returning the table to the zero position, the zero degree stop provides a quick reference to the preset position. 9 The zero stop assembly can be rotated to the left and down out of the way and the table can be angled up to 12° to the left. Note: Make sure the zero degree stop is rotated all the way down or it will contact the blade storage drawer as you angle to the left. ZERO DEGREE STOP ASSEMBLY ZERO DEGREE STOP Fig. 8 Page 12 ADJUSTMENTS INSTALLING BLADES Scroll saw blades wear out quickly and must be replaced frequently for best cutting results. Expect to break some blades while you learn to use and adjust your saw. Blades generally stay sharp for 1/2 hour to 2 hours of cutting, depending on the type of material and speed of operation. Removing the Saw Blade: I Pull up on the tension release. I Turn blade tension knob counterclockwise to decrease (or loosen) blade tension. I Remove the blade. Pin End Blades See Figure 11. Removing the Saw Blade: I Turn off and unplug the saw from the power source. Replacing the Saw Blade: I Place the new blade through the opening in the saw table with the teeth to the front of the saw and pointing down toward the saw table. [. . . ] You must attach the stacked pieces of wood to each other so they will move on the table as a single piece of material. BL E AD OR ST AG E WOOD PIECES TAPE Fig. 16 Page 17 MAINTENANCE WARNING: When servicing, use only identical Ryobi replacement parts. Use of any other part may create a hazard or cause product damage. MOTOR BRUSHES See Figure 18. Your saw has externally accessible motor brush assemblies that should be checked periodically for wear. [. . . ]
