This part includes one lifting rod for use in jigsaws. This lifting rod is supplied by the original manufacturer, ensuring the utmost quality and compatibility. The lifting rod is an essential part of the mechanism that drives the blade. This part is commonly replaced because the blade continuously comes loose and is no longer locking the blade securely. When performing this repair be very careful not to turn the release lever on the lifting rod without having the saw blade in place as this could damage the part.

Easier repair
Very expensive. For the cost of the replacement part you could buy a new hand held jig saw, but I like to fix things and not throw useful equipment away when they can be repaired to reduce global warming.

3. Lay saw on side and remove recessed TORX head screws which hold two halves of saw housing together.
4. Lift half of saw housing off to expose lifting rod
5. Before removing the old lifting rod, take note of how everything is positioned, especially the washers where the lifting rod exits the housing and the coiled spring that holds the lifting rod into place. NOTE: I suggest taking a picture of it now with your cell phone camera.
5. Remove broken lifting rod and replace with new rod. The bearing block that was on the broken lifting rod is used when installing the new lifting rod.
6. Reassemble the saw in reverse order of steps 1-4 above.
NOTE: Pay attention to the caution in the owners manual about not turning the release lever on the lifting rod without have the saw blade in place or you may be ordering another lifting rod or throwing the saw away.
