Hi guys,
Since the SS jigsaw is no longer available, and hasn't been for some years, the parts breakdown is not in the catalog. I have seen a couple of posts on this forum where a person looking for a hard-to-find item wood call up customer service/technical service (800 762 7555) and be able to order said part, even when it was not listed anywhere. No gaurantees here: Good luck!Image

I finally won the bidding for a jigsaw manual on FleaBay.
The same seller had a new in the box jigsaw a few days ago.:eek:
I was tempted to buy it for the novelty but better judgement won out, for a change.

I was tempted myself, but the one I have is in such great condition. I'll just have to keep looking for the part I need!
