After changing the bits or making any adjustments, make
sure the collet nut and any other adjustment devices are
securely tightened. Loose adjustment device can unex-
pectedly shift, causing loss of control; loose rotating components will be violently thrown.
Do not reach in the area of the spinning bit. The proximi
ty of the spinning bit to your hand may not always be obvious.
Allow brushes to run at operating speed for at least one
minute before using wheel. During this time no one is to
stand in front or in line with the brush.
wires will be discharged during the run-in time.
Wear protective gloves and face shield with wire or bristle brushes. Apply wire or bristle brushes lightly to the
work as only the tips of the wire/bristles do the work.
"Heavy" pressure on bristles will cause the wire or bristle to
become overstressed, resulting in a wiping action and will
cause the bristles/wire to be discharged.

Additional Safety Rules
Tool Use
DON’T FORCE TOOL
It will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
USE THE RIGHT TOOL
Don’t force a small tool or attachment to do the job of a heavy
duty tool. Don’t use tool for purpose not intended—for example, don’t use a circular saw for cutting tree limbs or logs.
SECURE WORK
Use clamps or a vise to hold work when practical. It’s safer
than using your hand and it frees both hands to operate the
tool.
NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED
Turn power off. Don’t leave tool until it comes to a complete
stop.
Tool Care
DO NOT ALTER OR MISUSE TOOL
These tools are precision built. Any alteration or modification
not specified is misuse and may result in dangerous conditions.
AVOID GASEOUS AREAS
Do not operate electric tools in a gaseous or explosive atmosphere. Motors in these tools normally spark, and may result
in a dangerous condition.
with one hand while using any of these accessories.
reason is that these wheels will grab if they become slightly
canted in the groove, and can kickback, causing loss of control resulting in serious injury. Your second hand should be
used to steady and guide the hand holding the tool. When a
cutoff wheel grabs, the wheel itself usually breaks. When the
steel saw, high-speed cutters or tungsten carbide cutter grab,
it may jump from the groove and you could lose control of the
tool.

MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE
Keep tools sharp and clean for better and safer performance.
Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.
Inspect tool cords periodically and if damaged, have repaired
by authorized service facility. Inspect extension cords periodically and replace if damaged. Keep handles dry, clean and
free from oil and grease.
Before connecting the tool to a power source (receptacle, outlet, etc.), be sure voltage supplied is the same as that speci
fied on the nameplate of the tool. A power source with a voltage greater than that specified for the tool can result in serious
injury to the user, as well as damage to the tool. If in doubt, DO
NOT PLUG IN THE TOOL. Using a power source with a voltage less than the nameplate rating is harmful to the motor

cord...cease operating immediately until the particular part
is properly repaired or replaced.
b. Do not cut piece too small to hold by hand.
HINT: When making a very small cut out, always secure
the workpiece to a scrap piece of plywood with doublefaced tape. This way, the work is supported and your fingers are away from the blade.
c. Never turn your Scroll Station on before clearing the table
of all objects (tools, scraps of wood, etc.) except for the
workpiece and related feed or support devices for the
operation planned.

cause a hand to move into the blade.
ALWAYS adjust the drop foot to just clear the workpiece to
•
protect the operator, keep blade breakage to a minimum
and provide maximum support for blade.
• Always adjust blade tension correctly.
The Scroll Station should cut on the down stroke. Always
•
make sure blade teeth are oriented downward toward
table.
• When cutting a large piece of material, make sure it is supported at table height.
• Hold the work firmly against the table.
• Do not feed the material too fast while cutting. Only feed
the material fast enough so that the blade will cut. Keep
fingers away from the blade.
• Use caution when cutting off material which is irregular in
cross section‚ it could pinch the blade before the cut is
completed. A piece of molding, for example, must lay flat
on the table and not be permitted to rock while being cut.
• Use caution when cutting off round material such as dowel
rods or tubing. They have a tendency to roll while being
cut, causing the blade to “bite”.
e. Never leave the Scroll Station running unattended. Turn
the saw OFF, make sure the saw has come to a complete
stop, and then remove plug from power supply before
leaving the work area.
f. Do not perform layout, assembly or setup work on the
table while the cutting tool is operating.
g. Turn saw off and remove plug from power supply outlet
before installing or removing an accessory attachment.
h. Access Door must be closed before operation.

Mounting the Scroll Station
to a Bench
The Scroll Station should be fastened securely to a firm supporting surface such as a stand or workbench, using the three
mounting holes.
NOTE: When mounting this saw to a workbench, a solid
bench is preferable to a plywood bench where noise and
vibration will be more noticeable.
We recommend to reduce noise and vibration, that a soft
foam pad be placed between your Scroll Station and workbench (not included).
Quantity Description
1 Soft foam pad, such as carpet padding,
24”x12”x1/2”
When mounting the Scroll Station to a workbench, holes
should be drilled through the foam pad or carpet and mounting surface of the workbench using the dimensions illustrated
in Figure 6.
Each of the three mounting holes should be bolted securely
using no less than 1/4" hex bolts, flat washers, lockwashers,
and nuts (not included). We recommend:
Quantity Description
4 Hex Head Bolts,
1/4"-20 x 1/4"-20 x Length Required
4 Flat Washers, 9/32" I.D.
4 Lockwasher, 9/32" I.D.
8 Hex Nuts, 1/4"-20
(Hardware not included)
Refer to Figures 6 and 7.
1. Locate and mark where the Scroll Station is to be mounted.

Protection: Eyes, Hands, Face, Ears and Body
WARNING
!
DO NOT WEAR:
• Loose Fitting Gloves
• Necktie
• Loose Clothing
• Jewelry
DO:
• Tie Back Long Hair
• Roll Long Sleeves Above Elbows
• The saw does not cut wood by itself. You allow the saw to
cut wood by guiding the wood into the blade as it moves.
• The blade teeth cut ONLY on the down stroke.
• The drop foot should always be lowered until it just rests
on top of the workpiece.
• You must feed the wood into the blade slowly because the
teeth of the blade are very small and they can only remove
wood when they are on the down stroke. The blade will flex
backwards when applying feed pressure. Too much feed
pressure will cause blade breakage. Let the blade do the
work.
• There is a learning curve for each person who wants to
use this saw. During that period of time it is expected that
some blades will break until you learn how to use the saw
and receive the greatest benefit from the blades.
• Best results are achieved when cutting wood less than
1" thick.
• When cutting wood thicker than 1", the user must feed the
wood very slowly into the blade, increase blade tension
and take extra care not to bend or twist the blade while cutting in order to maximize blade life.
Teeth on Scroll Station blades wear out and blades must
•
be replaced frequently for best cutting results. Scroll
Station blades generally stay sharp for 1/2 hour to 2 hours
of cutting.
• To get accurate cuts, be prepared to compensate for the
blade’s tendency to follow the wood grain as you are cutting.
When choosing a blade to use with your Scroll Station
consider the following carefully:
• Choose a blade that allows at least three (3) teeth to be in
contact with the workpiece at all times.
• Very fine, narrow blades should be used to scroll cut in thin
wood (1/4" thick or less).
Always observe the safety precautions here
and on pages 2 - 6.
To avoid being pulled into the saw blade –
• To cut thicker wood, use wider blades with fewer teeth per inch.
• Most blade packages state the size or thickness of wood
which that blade is intended to cut, and the radius (size of
curve) which can be cut with that blade.
• Wider blades can’t cut curves as tight or small as thinner
blades.
• This saw uses 5" long, Pin- or Plain-End type blades only
(See
RECOMMENDED
Blades wear faster when (1) cutting plywood, which is very
•
abrasive, (2) when sawing wood which is thicker than the
3/4" blade stroke, (3) when sawing hardwood or (4) when

BLADE TENSION below).
Blade Tension
To tension blade, move Quick Release Tension Lever to
“down” position. As the lever is lowered, tension will be
applied to the blade (Figure 11).
ATTENTION: Moving the lever downward should require
moderate, steady pressure only. If heavy pressure is needed,
the blade is too tight. Loosen tension by rotating the Quick
Release Tension Lever counterclockwise 1-2 turns, then
reset the tension lever to the “down” position. If the tension
lever is in the “down” position and the blade is too loose, you
can increase tension by leaving the tension lever “down” and
rotating it clockwise just until you feel the slack in the blade
Figure 11. Quick Release Tension Lever
removed. Then turn the tension lever ONE full turn clockwise.
This amount of blade pressure should do well for most cutting
operations and blades.
When the blade tension has been properly adjusted, you
should be able to lift up the Quick Release Tension Lever,
remove and install the blade, lower the lever and return the
original blade tension. The life of the tension lever will be
extended if you back the tension off one-half turn
ing the lever.
NOTE: It may be necessary to re-adjust the tension lever
when using different types of blades.

Carbon Brushes
The brushes and commutator in your tool have been engineered for many hours of dependable service. To maintain
peak efficiency of the motor, we recommend the brushes be
examined every two to six months. Only genuine Dremel
replacement brushes specially designed for your tool should
be used.
The brushes should be inspected frequently when tools are
used continuously. If your tool runs sporadically, loses power,
makes unusual noises or runs at a reduced speed, check the
brushes. To continue using the tool in this condition will permanently damage your tool.
With the cord unplugged, remove the brush caps one at a
time with a small screwdriver by rotating cap counter-clock
wise and check each brush (Figure 20).
If the brush is less than 1/8" long and the end surface of the
brush that contacts the commutator is rough and/or pitted,
replace the brush. Check both brushes. Usually the brushes
will not wear out simultaneously. If one brush is worn out,
replace both brushes. Make sure the brushes are installed as
illustrated. The curved surface of the brush must match the
curvature of the commutator.
