Bosch Jigsaw Orbital Function Not working (JS470EB 7.0A Barrel-Grip Jig Saw)

J_Albert | Posted in Tools for Home Building on

Hey Folks, I have a Bosch jigsaw (model JS470EB 7.0A Ballel-Grip Jig Saw) and the “ORBITAL” function seems to have quit working. Has anyone else experience this problem?

I have placed the blade against stock with all positions of the orbital setting selected and the blade is always going strait up and down.

Thanks for any insight.

Prescriptive codes don't address the connection at less common angles, so base the connection off more typical ones using bolts, structural screws, blocking, and steel tension ties.
