Rok jigsaw problem

ZippyDee · 2014-07-24 16:21:40

Hi all! I bought the rok 350 volt jigsaw and I'm having trouble using it. The plastic safety plate blocks one of the set screws even when the plate is lifted and lowered. I can't put in a blade at all. Is this a fault or am I just being thick and missing something?:D Thank you.

Loosen the screws on the blade. Shove the blade in and then tighten the screws.

I have the same one, its cheap rubbish but ok for a limited number of jobs.

You'll need to plug it in and turn it on, i.e. pull the trigger for a second, it'll move the position of the set screws so its a bit random but you'll eventually get both lined up with the holes in the plastic cover.
