Fit one end of the blade into one of the blade adaptors as shown in
Fig 8.11.
Fit the other end of the blade into the second adaptor as shown in
Fig 8.12.
Before tightening fully, ensure the blade is positioned parallel with the
blade adaptors and the arm of the machine as shown in Fig 8.13.
Before fitting the blade, ensure the tension is released by turning the blade
tension knob anti-clockwise as shown in Fig 8.4.
Ensuring the teeth of the blade are pointing downwards, hook the blade
adaptor through the lower blade holder of the machine as shown in Fig
8.14.
Apply gentle pressure to the upper blade holder to lower its position and
allow the blade adaptor to be hooked in position on the blade holder as
shown in Fig 8.15.
To apply tension to the blade, turn the blade tension knob clockwise until
slight resistance is felt on the knob. Further tightening from this point is
now required - for most blade types and applications, a further half turn to
full turn of the knob is sufficient.
Please note: Over-tightening of the scrollsaw blade will shorten
the blade's life and may cause it to break.
