BLADE INSTALLATION AND REMOVAL

This jigsaw is equipped with the Bosch “Clic” tooless blade changing system. This system makes changing blades simple and fast.

Insert the saw blade (teeth in cutting direction) until it latches in the plunger. When inserting the saw blade, the back of the blade must rest in the groove of the guide roller (Fig. 2).

Note: If the saw blade cannot be inserting into the plunger, the slots of the blade holder are not positioned as shown, push the blade ejector lever briefly to the front and release.

To change the saw blade, push the ejector lever to the center stop; this releases the saw blade and it is ejected.

When changing the blade, tool should be held so that the blade is safely ejected.
