Preparing the Saw
BLADE SELECTION
No one blade can be efficient on all cutting
jobs. Different materials require specially
designed blades. Since your reciprocating
saw can cut so many materials, many types of
BOSCH blades are available. Be sure to use
the proper blade to insure proper cutting
performance.

Disconnect battery pack
WARNING
from tool before making
any assembly, adjustments or changing
accessories.
1. Insert the blade into the LockJaw™ blade
holder until the locking collar automatically
rotates clockwise and locks the blade in place
(Fig. 2). Note: if the blade will not lock
automatically, rotate the locking collar counter-

VARIABLE SPEED CONTROLLED
TRIGGER SWITCH
Your tool is equipped with a variable speed
controlled trigger switch. The tool can be
turned "ON" or "OFF" by squeezing or
releasing the trigger. The blade plunger stroke
rate can be adjusted from the minimum to
maximum nameplate stroke rate by the
pressure you apply to the trigger. Apply more
pressure to increase the speed and release
pressure to decrease speed (Fig. 1).
To reduce the risk of injury
WARNING
immediately discontinue use
of the tool if the variable speed control ceases
to function. Subsequent loss of on/off control
of the trigger switch is likely.
Higher speed settings are generally used for
fast cutting or when softer cutting materials
such as wood, composite materials, and

clockwise until it clicks and locks in the open
position (Fig. 3).
2 Push in and pull out on the blade to be sure
the pin in the clamp housing goes through the
hole in the blade to hold the blade securely.
The blade may be inserted with the teeth
facing down or up.
3. To remove the blade, rotate the locking
collar counter-clockwise and the blade will
automatically eject from the LockJaw™ blade
holder and lock the collar in the open position.
Make sure that the front end
WARNING
of the blade extends through
the footplate for the entire stroke length. Do
not use specialty blades that are very short or
those with a significant cant. Blade must not
contact footplate. A blade which is too short or
canted could jam inside the foot and snap.

plastics. Slower speed settings are generally
used when precision is required or when
cutting harder materials. Materials typically cut
using slower speeds include sheet metal,
conduit, and pipe.
DUAL SPEED SELECTOR SWITCH
& TRIGGER LOCK
Your tool is equipped with two separate gear
ranges, low gear and high gear. Low gear
provides slower cutting speeds for cutting hard
materials such as metals or thin sheet metals.
High gear provides faster speeds for cutting
soft materials such as wood, plastics, etc. and
when fast cutting is more important than a
clean cut.
To change speeds slide switch, to the high or
low position (Fig. 1).
To activate trigger lock move lever to the
center off position.
