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 ensure proper cutting
performance.
 
Unplug tool from power
source before changing blade
or making any adjustments.
1. Insert the blade into the blade holder by
twisting the collar in direction of arrow until it
stops (Fig. 2).
2. Insert a blade into blade slot until blades
shoulder rests against the collar.
3. Release collar and spring loaded collar will
securely clamp the blade. (49* If the collar
does not return to it’s original position, rotate
the collar in direction opposite of the arrow.)
4 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.
5. To remove the blade, rotate the collar in
direction of arrow while pulling the blade out of
the blade slot. (49* be careful, blade may be
hot.)
Make sure that the front end
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
tilted could jam inside the foot and snap.

3 positions Fig. 3 (b).
Do not push the footplate
release button while sawing.
It will cause the footplate to release from the
desired settings and you may lose control and
be injured.
To reduce the risk of injury,
be sure the blade extends
beyond the footplate and all the way through
the workpiece throughout the stroke. Blades
may shatter if the blade hits the footplate or
hits the work at an angle that is nearly
head-on (Fig. 4).
1. Securely clamp the work.
2. Mark the line of cut and grasp the tool with
one hand on the handle and the other
placed on the insulated rubber boot over
the front housing.
Always hold the saw by the
insulated boot on the front
housing. If you saw into a blind area where
live wiring exists, you may be shocked or
electrocuted.
3. Keep the saw footplate firmly against the
work to minimize counter-force (jumping)
and vibration.
4. Squeeze the trigger to start the tool. Let the
saw reach full speed before starting the cut.
Guide the saw so that the blade will move
along the marked line.
# 
Following a few simple tips will reduce the
wear on the workpiece, the tool and the
operator.
1. Blades cut on the draw or back stroke. On
fine work, such as paneling, fiberglass, etc.,
place the good side of workpiece facing
down.
2. Use the correct saw blade for the material
being cut and keep extra blades on hand to
use when others become dull. Replace
cracked or bent blades immediately.
3. Select the appropriate cutting speed.
To reduce the risk of injury,
be sure the blade always
extends beyond the footplate and work
throughout the stroke. Blades may shatter if
the front on the blade hits the work and/or the
footplate.
4. When cutting metal:
- Apply a lubricant for easier, smoother,
faster cutting and longer blade life.
- For non-ferrous metals, aluminum,
bronze or brass, use a stick wax on the
blade.

- For ferrous metals, iron and steel, use
machine or cutting oil along the surface
to be cut.
5. When cutting thin metal, "sandwich" the
material between two pieces of scrap wood.
Clamp or put in a bench vise. One piece of
lumber on top of the metal can be used with
adequate clamping. Place your cut lines or
design on the wood.
6. Don’t force the cutting. Let the saw and
blade do the work.
When operating the saw
continuously and for
prolonged periods of time, the gearbox may
become hot to the touch. To reduce the risk of
injury, wear gloves during saw operation.

The reciprocating saw can be used to make
plunge cuts into softer material, (for example,
wood or light building materials for walls),
without a starting hole (Fig. 5).
1. Mark the line to be cut clearly on the work.
2. Set the tool with one edge of the footplate
firmly against the material.
3. Place the tip of the blade (not running) on the
line to be cut.
4. Tilt the saw so that the blade clears the work.
5. Squeeze the trigger switch and carefully
engage the moving saw blade into the material.
6. After the blade penetrates through the work,
continue sawing along the marked outline.
 
To make plunge cutting easier, use a heavy
gauge blade, install the blade with the teeth
facing upward, and hold the saw upside down
as shown (Fig. 6).
Do not plunge cut in metal surfaces.
In thick materials and in harder materials,
such as metal, plunge cutting should not be
attempted. Such materials can be cut with the
recip saw only by starting the cut from the
edge of the material or from a hole drilled all
the way through the material that is large
enough to fit the saw blade.
The use of any accessories
not specified in this manual
may create a hazard.
