Long known for industry-leading innovation and performance in the jigsaw category, Bosch’s latest offering delivers both without breaking the bank. For example, Bosch’s exclusive One Touch™ blade change system enables one-handed blade changes. This feature provides quick and easy blade changes during any project.

The variable speed dial allows users to precisely control the saw’s 5.7 amps of power and match speed of cut (500-3,100 SPM) for a smooth and quality finish on their workpiece. Users can even adjust the type of cut – from smooth to aggressive – simply by using the saw’s 4-position orbital action feature and choosing the appropriate blade.

The Bosch JS5 offers top-notch comfort and control, thanks to a counterbalanced drive system that minimizes vibration and a soft-grip handle and body that reduce user fatigue. Visibility is maximized by an adjustable dust blower, designed to keep sight lines clear during use. The lightweight JS5 barely tips the scales at five pounds.

The Bosch JS5 Orbital Jigsaw comes complete with a rugged carrying bag, blade, anti-splinter insert and an Allen wrench. The saw is covered by a one year warranty.  It is now available through authorized Bosch distributors nationwide. To find out more, users may visit www.boschtools.com or call 877-BOSCH-99.
