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.
