The most common blades are designed for cutting wood, but there are also blades for cutting metal and plastic. When selecting a blade, make sure to consider the thickness and type of material that will be cut.
Inserting the Blade
The blade is inserted into the scroll saw by placing it in the hole at the front of the saw and pushing it until it clicks into place. Make sure that the teeth of the blade are facing downwards before turning on the saw.
Adjusting the Blade Tension
The blade tension should be adjusted before starting to cut. This can be done by turning the knob on the side of the saw. The blade tension should be tight enough so that the blade does not wobble, but not so tight that it is difficult to turn.
Making a Cut
To make a cut, place the material to be cut on the table of the saw and adjust the blade tension as needed. then use the hand-held scroll saw to guide the blade through the material. Be careful not to apply too much pressure, as this can cause the blade to break.
Finishing a Cut
Once the cut is complete, release the wood from the blade by gently pushing it away from the blade. Do not try to remove the material from the blade by pulling it towards you, as this can cause injuries.
Conclusion
In order to insert a Rockwell, scroll saw blade, you will need to open the arm. The easiest way to do this is by using your left hand to hold the upper arm and your right hand to unscrew the knob on the side. Once the arm is open, all you have to do is slide in the new blade and screw the knob back on.
Make sure that when you close the arm, the teeth of the blade are facing down so that they won’t catch on anything while you’re scrolling. As long as you are careful when replacing blades, there’s no reason why you can’t get many years of use out of your Rockwell scroll saw.
