hegner blade change

[delabodge]

hi just bought a older hegner scroll saw, and need a picture of the underneath to show me how to change the blade, as think there might be something missing! thanks

 

[Bryan Bennett]

The blade is held underneath by a spring clip and the blade fits into a v shaped slot,I have a old Hegner Multicut 1 over 20 years old.The clip is screwed to the lower arm underneath the blade holding the blade up.I will go to the Hegner site and try to get the part number so that you will be able to see the spring clip.
Been on the Hegner UK site,when you try for a part I needed a adobe reader to view the exploded view of part number,I have a exploded view printed out and it is part number 10.I hope that this helps you.

Hi, if you go to the Hegner WEB they provide a full breakdown schematics of the models and also a detailed list of every part which you can purchase from them.

hi brian, I have the upper arm fittings,its the under arm bit Im struggling with,,the blade fits into a little v clamp(which is there) and tightens with the square nut,,when I put it in the spring,,what holds it there,,,i have a black knob with a threaded bolt that comes with it?which was loose and attached to the machine with tape,,not sure where this fits,,,,.im sure it must hold the lower clamp somehow?

 

[Bryan Bennett]

The black knob with threaded bolt sounds like the tensioner which goes at the rear of the machine,a long flat spring goes in a small hole in the top and bottom arms,when you screw the black knob down it puts tension on the blade.On the threaded bolt are there two v shaped nuts on it,these go in the arms at the rear of the machine.

bryan,,you legend,that is exactly what i needed to see,,,now I know theres nothing missing from the front, it is indeed the long threaded rod with the knob on I`m missing,so having inspected my machine more and knowing its a hegner 2s universal,I can order the spare parts,, couldn't understand why the blades kept breaking when I switched it on,,, =D> a massive thank you!!

hi bryan could I trouble you tto show me a few pics of the overall saw just in case its missing anything else,,the pipe is perferated,,think this blows away the dust as its sawing,
I also read about flying dutchman blades,,??whats your thoughts?

 

[Bryan Bennett]

Can not get to sleep switched computer on,will take some pics later.Flying Dutchman blades are the best blades that I have ever used.I will be posting probably next week a musical box that I started last year.I fell out with it because there is a arch that goes across the box which I cut out of 1/4 plywood and after cutting it left a burrs on the back.It would have taken a lot of time to clean it up so I put to one side.It was a gift for a work colleague of my elder daughter who had covered for her at work because she had been delayed with me at the hospital.I cut another arch out last week using F/D blade left it clean as a whistle at the back.
