Oversized, cast-iron table provides excellent material support and has the ability to bevel to both the left and right. Use only 5" plain end scroll saw blades. Pin end scroll saw blades cannot be used with the DW788.

Routine Maintenance
To lube the tension lever, you will need to remove the 4 screws that hold the black control cover and then remove the screw that holds the tension lever down. Grease can be placed on the bottom side of the lever. The DW788 uses sealed bearings that do not require additional lubrication. Use a good quality paste wax to buff the table in order to prevent rust.
