I need help taking the old blade out of my jigsaw. I also wanted to know if anyone knew where I can buy parts for the jigsaw model # 0608550015

G'day- I have a jigsaw with simmilar build number, you have to pull up and then twist 3 turns counterclockwise the top handle of the jigsaw- this releases the blade, then put the new blade in and turn 3 clockwise turns and push down the handle.
Hope this helps- when they are new they have a sticker on the side to show this action, it was one of the first "tool free" blade changers, did you know Scintilla invented the Jigsaw? Yep, the guy got bored at home and savaged his wife's sewing machine into a jigsaw, they are part of the Bosch group now.
