The Eclipse Scroll Saw frame utilizes a heavy-walled aluminum sand casting frame for its rigidity. The rigidity of conventionally designed saws is dependent on the blade holder mountings, the material and construction of their arms, and how it’s all supported. The moving mass of the arms must be counter balanced to minimize vibration. This movable mass does not exist in the ECLIPSE saw. Instead of moving parallel arms, C arm or link drive components that cause much of the vibration in other saw designs, the ultra-light Oscillating Drive Loop System makes the ECLIPSE nearly vibration free.The 1.5” blade stroke is great for intarsia. This longer stroke spreads the heat and wear over more of the blade making it last much longer and clears sawdust better. This saves you both time and money.Since it has a true vertical blade action (ideal for marquerty and intarsia) and a positive pull from the top to bring the blade to the top of the stroke. Blade breakage is all but eliminated thus you won’t mind using a tool for the lower blade
Safety Instructions:
-Turn off,when not in use.
-Remove clamp tool from lower blade clamp before operation
-Stay alert. Always focus closely on what you are doing. Do not
operate the saw when you are tired.
- Keep guards in place. Make sure guards are in working order
and in proper adjustment and alignment.
-Use of a dust mask and safety glasses are recommended.
Never reach under the table while the saw is running.
- If an extension cord is used, be sure it is grounded and the
wire gauge is correct for it’s length to handle 18 amps.
Note
- parts list.
- control board (KBWD-13) manual.
