There is a speed and angle ratio that must be observed . Depending on the density of the material and the thickness. The shoe plate can be raised or lowered to assist with the forenamed floating condition. Proper blade selection and sharpness is essential.

With thick materials pushing the blades design, speed and force must be regulated through patience to provide the accuracy you demand. The complete blade system is another part of your investment . Understanding what and when can overcome fast if problems arise. Assuming all of this is in your tool box. I always have been taught. Only adapt when all reason is exhausted.


The last part I have had happen is vibration and tool integrity. Maintaining a tight fastener system all over the tool by lubrication is paramount from use or lack of it. Preventive measures spot stuff from happening when you are making the million dollar cut. But we all know that. Daily or startup practice. Just like stretching before playing, a great coach takes the time to do it for their selves too.


There are six JS700 models. Here is a place for parts should that arise Black Decker Jigsaw Replacement Parts Repair your Black Decker Jigsaw... . Furthermore, here is some words for those who are new at the application. Take a look. How to Use Jigsaw basic. This next look in video instruction is thorough and shows intermediate techniques with some experienced foundation. How to Use Jigsaw produced by skill. The Woodworker Journal places the top six picks side by side in the last video offered Top Shelf Jigsaw Review . There is one called a "Mafell" which has a so called perfect orbiting system, which some make it, the straight cut King.


I took the time to do this on the first day of summer. There is lots more to discuss. I think you have the most versatile easy to learn tool in your shop. I am almost sure you think so too. Keep humming. Fare. Well.

SOURCE: Changing the blade in a bosch pst 65 pae corded jigsaw

Pull up the knob on the front at the top of the machine and push the yellow bit forward. Theoretically you should turn the knob anticlockwise three turns but it doesn't seem to make any difference on my one. Then take hold of the blade, ease it forward and turn through 90 degrees. You should then be able to pull it out. Replacement is, as they say in all the best manuals, a simple reversal of the procedure. When you are turning the knob clockwise this time it's supposed to click in place but my one doesn't do this and still seems to work.

Best of luck

SOURCE: My bosch jigsaw keeps saing sideways!!!

Most Bosch jigsaws have a handle on the top of the main handle that you need to pull up and rotate counterclockwise to allow the screw to accept the blade. Insert the blade and rotate 90 degrees into position then tighten the handle and press back down into place. In the beginning it may seem like you are going to break the handle pulling it up but rest assured it will get easier as it gets used.

How to lock the jigsaw blade to make straight cuts on my Boschest 1587svs?

Use a straight edge guide. Clamp it on the work so the jigsaw can run against it. Be patient and go very slowly.

How do you put a new blade into a Black & Decker JS4000 Type 1 jigsaw

There is a black plastic switch where the blade is slid into the jigsaw. The black plastic switch can be seen and accessed from the front of the jigsaw through the clear plastic sight guide...You pull the black switch toward the bottom of the jigsaw and it opens the space for the blade to slide into, when you release the switch it will close the space and lock the blade into place.

Hope this helps.

Black and decker jigsaw blade comes out during sawing but seems to be locked

Either the blade is not in all the way, or the back plate is missing or screw is stripped.

I do not know to use the black and decker jigsaw.

Draw the circle pattern on the wood where you need it. Drill a 1/2 or 3/8 inch hole inside the circle, near the circle line. Insert the jigsaw blade into the hole and start cutting, following the line.

If you have the scrolling feature on your saw, don't use it, lock the scroll.
