How to remove the blade on your DeWalt reciprocating saw

• Unplug the power cord or remove the battery from the saw. Wear work gloves to protect your hands while installing the blade.
• Allow the blade to cool if it's still hot from cutting a workpiece.
• Extend the adjustable/pivoting shoe away from the blade clamp.
• Push the blade clamp lever up with your thumb and hold it.
• Carefully pull the blade out of the blade clamp then release the clamp lever.

Choosing the right blade speed when using your DeWalt reciprocating saw

• Use high blade speed when cutting wood and other soft materials.
• Medium blade speed is best for cutting non-ferrous materials and thick plastic work pieces.
• Use low blade speed when cutting metal work pieces and metal pipe.
