  1. Hi I'm new to this Community forum and looking for some help . I saw you received an award for most liked content, Congratulations!     

    I purchased an Excalibur EX-19 Scroll saw from an estate sale, After reinstalling the belt and checking tension, I found that the fuse had blown from previous owner. I'm wanting to get the right 3Amp fuse for this model.

    On the circuit board there are letters IFU 3A next to the fuse. (see photo) Do those mean anything? Where can I find this fuse, or OEM compatible?

      Hi and welcome. Those awards really don't mean too much. I have also be reprimanded for a couple of political posts so I'm not a "fair-haired child" by any means. But to your question, I would, if it were me, go to an auto parts store and buy a box of 3amp fuses of the appropriate length and use them. 3 amps is 3 amps in my book. That is a very light fuse so anything could have popped it but do keep an eye on it. That's an old saw so I'm not knowledgeable on it. Sorry I can't be of more help but that's what I'd do. Happy scrolling.
