Axminster Excalibur EX-16 User Manual

Excalibur EX-16, EX-21 &
EX-30 Scroll Saws
This is a range of three scroll saws with some really different features not found on any other machines available in the
UK. Constructed mainly from plate steel including a 7mm heavy gauge steel table with an epoxy painted surface. Two
unique features make these machines stand out from any other. Firstly, the blade actuating arms are very short, driven
by a lever and rod mechanism. This gives very high control of the blade plus exceptionally low vibration. Secondly, the
whole arm assembly tilts 45° from the vertical left to right, leaving the table horizontal. This allows much better control
of the work, due to greater visibility and being able to work at a natural position. You are not fighting gravity or
bending your wrists into awkward positions. These machines are not short of other features, having a variable speed
control system giving from 400-1,400 strokes per minute. Blade changing is easy and tool free, with two hand clamps
and a quick release lever. An air blower and work hold down are provided. Plus there is efficient dust
collection when connected to a suitable fine dust extractor. Rubber feet are
supplied, or you can permanently mount the machine onto your workbench.
Using unpinned blades means there is a large selection of blades available,
or you can use 150mm lengths of 1/4" bandsaw blade, ideal for cutting
thicker materials. Available in three sizes, 16" , 21" and 30" , just
choose the one that suits your work. These are serious machines
for craft or artistic work, not the same as any others.
