Elu is taken over by Dewalt. I can't find manual online but try to check on Dewalt band saws. ; you can use Dewalt manuals for reference. Are you cutting metal? I use Haltbar 601 series bi metal blade for cutting steels.
nope... throat on scroll saw is of fixed height... beside, all scrollsaw blades are of fixed length, i would suggest use of bandsaw with very narrow blade with minimal kerf. do not use pressure on the blade! you will then have same cut through the thickness of the wood! setup bandsaw correctly, do not overtension it - see my other instructables pertaining to the bandsaw and regulation/setup of it
if you find my solution helpful - do not me shy... give some points... :-)
I'm not familiar with that particular band saw but I have had a few different band saws and they all pretty much work the same.
Unplug the saw and remove the top and bottom wheel guards.
Look behind the top wheel and you should see a large bolt standing vertically it may have a knob on it or it may not, look on the bolt to see if it has stop nuts if so loosen them then turn this knob so as to lower the wheel enough so you can remove the old blade.
Clean the rubber tires on both wheels and install the band with the teeth facing down.
Now the tricky part, adjust the top wheel so that it is firmly against the band and turn the wheel slowly by hand (be sure the saw is unplugged) if the band "walks" one way or another, you will have to find the set screw or set screws that adjust the tilt of the wheel, adjust these until the band runs true on the wheel. When it does, tighten the wheel a litte more and turn again slowly by hand repeat this until the band runs true and it is very tight on the wheel, Put the guards back on before you turn on the power. You should be good to go.
Go to Dewaltservicenet.com and in the middle of the page at the bottom you will see a box for manuals, type in your model number and it will bring up a list of tools with that number, you might have to click on a couple but I did see a manual for the DW100 that can be downloaded. Let me know if you still have problems
