Attaching a blade
Warning! When attaching blades, make sure the Jig Saw is not plugged in to an outlet.
1. The Cover (#2) should be removed.
2. Turn the Nut (#8a) so that the slots on it align with the Rod Slot (#12a) on the Rod (#11a).
Caution: Do not twist the Nut (#8a) more than is necessary to line up the notches with the
groove on Rod Slot (#12a) of Rod (#11a). If the Nut (#8a) is separated from the Rod (#11A)
as the result of improper use, it will be necessary to carry out the following sequence when
repairing it:
Put the spring inside the Nut (#8a)
up to the stop, with the end of the
spring going into the square Nut’s
groove as shown in the illustration
to the near right .
Install the Nut with spring onto the
Rod (#11a) until the nut thread
presses against the Rod’s thread, so
that the spring end falls into the
square notch on the rod (see
illustration to the far right.
To install the Nut: Twist the Nut counterclockwise (click produced by the Nut and
Rod’s thread should be heard every 90 degrees) and let the nut go after 4 clicks.
Note: Only use T-Shank Blades, as shown in the above right illustration.
3. To install the Blade: Align the tang of the Blade with the slot in the Nut. Push the Blade in
and rotate the Nut 90 degrees. Make sure the teeth of the blade are facing out and down-
ward, away from the Jig Saw.
4. Wearing a thick leather glove, tug on the Blade (#10a) and make sure it is securely
fastened in the Rod (#11a).
5. Replace the Cover (#2).
6. Slide the Anti-Skid Guard (#14a) over the hooked end of the Base (#37) making sure the
flat side sits flush with the bottom of the Base (#37).
Note: Never use a dull or cracked blade. A damaged blade can break causing serious injury
and damage. Replacement blades are available at Harbor Freight Tools.
Note: If the Jig Saw comes from the factory with a protective lubricant coating, wipe it clean
using a cloth. Make sure no liquid enters the motor or sawing mechanisms.
Warning: Do not use the Jig Saw without the Cover (#2) in place.
