Blade Selection

Dremel recommends the use of Dremel XPR saw blades. The XPR MultiSaw comes with a saw blade for straight and curved cuts in wood and soft materi- als up to 1-7/16" thick. The Dremel XPR MultiSaw accepts all standard jigsaw blades, both “T” or “U” shank.

No one blade can be efficient for all cutting jobs. Different materials require different blades. Since your saw can cut so many materials, be sure to use the proper blade for the job to ensure proper cutting performance.

NOTE: Refer to blade packaging for information on recommended materials and blade usage.
