Title: manuals
Post by: slowcutter on December 04, 2012, 12:04:20 am
Can't remember the site to get free manuals.
Just got a Hawk scroll saw 220VS & need manuals for it.
Its in very nice shape, got it for $300.
Been waiting for parts for my Delta for 5 weeks & heard nothing.
Think I'm going to call & cancel the parts.
Tanks for any help

What are you going to do with your old saw? Sell it as is and let the new owner fix it or use it as a backup? ??? ??? ::)

I've bought several tools on Craigslist.  Once I acquire a new (to me) tool I Google the tool model number along with the term "manual".  I then download the manual and 3 hole punch the paper then put it into a notebook.
By Googling it I often end up on the Manufacturers site.  Many manufacturers offer a PDF version.

Bud  I have even done that for tools I am thinking about buying. I had the manual for my Dewalt 788 for weeks before I got the saw
