A hand-guided power reciprocating saw has a machine housing, a saw blade drivable by a motor into a stroke motion, a guide device having two guide elements resting against the saw blade at opposite sides of the saw blade and operative for guiding and supporting the saw blade crosswise to a sawing direction, the guiding device further having a two-armed pivot lever with lever arms on each of which a corresponding one of the guide elements is situated, the guiding device also having an adjusting mechanism for adjusting a transverse spacing between the guide elements, a holder in which the guide device is integrated and which is configured to be mounted in the machine housing and/or to a base plate attached to the machine housing, the pivot lever being pivotally supported on the holder and the adjusting mechanism being accommodated in the holder.

Hand-guided power reciprocating saw

A hand-held jigsaw machine includes a machine housing (), a saw blade () that is drivable in a reciprocating manner by a motor, a support device () with a support roller () that supports the saw blade on its back (), and a holder () that is fixed to the machine housing () and accommodates the support roller () between two arms (), and a guide device () for guiding and supporting the saw blade () transversely to the saw direction with guide elements () on opposite sides of the saw blade () at an adjustable distance from each other. To ensure economical production of the support and guide device and to reduce the number of components required, the guide device () is integrated in the holder () of the support device ().
