ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENTS
REMOVING OR INSTALLING JIG SAW BLADE
WARNING: To avoid injury from accidental startups, turn switch OFF and remove the plug from the
power source outlet before making any adjustments.
WARNING: These blade cannot and should not be re-sharpened.
WARNING: The jig saw blade is sharp and fragile and must be handled carefully to avoid injury to
the user and damage to the blade.
Do not attempt to sharpen or use resharpened blades of any kind. Use only blades designated for use with this
model, as other blades may not clamp securely in blade holder.
This jigsaw is equipped with a tool-less blade changing system for fast and easy changes of T-shank blades.
Note: This jigsaw does not accept U-shank blades.
WARNING: If the blade is not properly installed, then it may unexpectedly dislodge from the jigsaw during opera-
tion.
1. To remove a previously-used blade, pull the blade change lever until the blade ejects.
WARNING: Blade ejects forcefully when released. Direct away from yourself or bystanders.
2. Pull the blade change lever and insert the saw blade (make sure the teeth are aimed in the direction of the cut)
until the “T” part of the blade shank is completely inserted into the blade clamp. When inserting the saw blade, the
back of the blade must rest in the grooves in the roller guide.
3. After the blade change lever is released, it should spring back to its closed position.
4. Verify that the blade clamp has also returned to its closed position.
Note: If the saw blade cannot be inserted into the plunger, the slots of the blade holder are not in the correct posi-
tion.
