USE OF EXTENSION CORDS
Make sure the extension cord is in good condition before using. Always use the proper size
extension cords with the tool – that is, proper wire size for various lengths of cord and heavy
enough to carry the current the tool will draw. Use of an undersized cord will cause a drop in
line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. For proper size cords see chart below.

MOTOR
Be sure your power supply agrees with nameplate marking. 120 Volts AC only means your
tool will operate on standard 60 Hz household power. Do not operate AC tools on DC. A
rating of 120 volts AC/DC means that you tool will operate on standard 60 Hz AC or DC
power. This information is printed on the nameplate. Lower voltage will cause loss of power
and can result in over-heating. All Black & Decker tools are factory-tested; if this tool does
not operate, check the power supply.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
OPERATION
CAUTION: Always wear eye protection while operating this power tool.
NOTE: Before cutting any type of material, be sure it is firmly anchored or clamped to
prevent slipping.
• Place blade lightly against work to be cut.
• Switch on saw motor before applying pressure.
• Always hold saw firmly with both hands while cutting as shown in Figure 1. Whenever
possible, the saw shoe must be held firmly against the material being cut. This will
prevent the saw from jumping or vibrating and minimize blade breakage.
SWITCH (ON-OFF) (FIGURE 2)
Depress the trigger switch to turn tool "ON". Releasing the trigger turns the tool "OFF"
NOTE: This tool has no provision to lock the switch in the ON position, and should never
be locked in the ON position by any other means.
VARIABLE SPEED SELECTOR WHEEL (FIGURE 3)
The variable speed selector wheel offers a choice of speeds for greatly improved cutting
rates in various materials. To select a slower speed for operating the saw, rotate the wheel
to a low number on the dial. To select a higher speed, rotate the wheel to a higher number.
TWO-SPEED (DUAL RANGE) SWITCH (FIGURE 3A) RS601 ONLY
The 2-speed selector offers a choice of speeds for greatly improved cutting rates in various
materials. Note that the High-Speed setting is more efficient in softer materials such as
wood, while the Low-Speed is best for cutting metals.
LOW SPEED (Move slide switch to show 1). For cutting sheet metal, metal pipe, metal
conduit, etc.
HIGH SPEED (Move slide switch to show 2). For cutting wood, plastic, composition boards
and other similar materials.
BLADE CLAMP RELEASE LEVER (FIGURE 4)
CAUTION: LACERATION HAZARD. TURN OFF AND UNPLUG FROM POWER
SUPPLY WHEN CHANGING BLADES.
To install blade into saw:
1. Lift the blade clamp release lever to its full open position as shown in Figure 4.
2. Insert blade shank from the front locating hole in blade over pin on reciprocating shaft.
3. Close blade clamp release lever.
4. Check to ensure blade is secure before cutting.
To remove blade from saw:
1. Open blade clamp release lever to its full open position.
2. Remove blade.
ADJUSTABLE SHOE (FIGURE 5)
CAUTION: TURN OFF AND UNPLUG SAW.
The shoe will adjust to limit the depth of cut. Hold the saw with the underside facing up.
Push the button (shown in Figure 5) on the hand grip and slide the shoe out to one of the
three settings and release the button.
FLUSH CUTTING (FIGURE 6)
• The compact design of the recipro cating saw motor housing and pivoting shoe permit
close cutting to floors, corners and other difficult areas.
• To maximize flush cutting capabilities, insert the blade shaft into the blade clamp with
the teeth of the blade facing up.
• Turn the saw upside down so you are as close to the work surface as possible.
METAL CUTTING (FIGURE 7)
• Use a finer blade for ferrous metals and a coarse blade for non-ferrous materials.
• In thin gauge sheet metals it is best to clamp wood to both sides of sheet. This will
ensure a clean cut without excess vibration or tearing of metal.
• Avoid forcing cutting blade as this reduces blade life and causes costly blade breakage.
NOTE: Spread a thin film of oil or other coolant along the line ahead of the saw cut for
easier operation and longer blade life. For cutting aluminum, kerosene is preferred.
POCKET CUTTING - WOOD ONLY (FIGURE 8)
• Measure the surface area to be cut and mark clearly with a pencil, chalk or scriber.
• Insert blade in blade clamp and tighten blade clamp securely.
• Tip the saw backward until the back edge of the shoe is resting on the work surface and
the moving blade will clear the surface.
• Switch motor on, permitting blade to obtain maximum speed.
• Grip handle steadily and begin a slow, deliberate upward swing with the handle of the saw.
• The blade will begin to feed into material. Always be sure blade is completely through
material before continuing with pocket cut.
NOTE: In areas where blade visibility is limited, use the edge of the shoe as a guide.
PROJECT TIPS
• Cut only with sharp blades; they cut cleaner, faster and put less strain on the motor
while cutting.
• When cutting, always ensure that the shoe is resting firmly against the workpiece. This
will improve operator control and minimize vibration.
• For longer blade life, use bi-metal blades. These utilize a carbon steel back welded to
high speed steel teeth making the blade more flexible and less prone to breaking.
MAINTENANCE
UNPLUG SAW AND REMOVE ACCESSORY WHEN PERFORMING ANY CLEANING OR
OTHER MAINTENANCE. WHEN SERVICING USE ONLY IDENTICAL REPLACEMENT
PARTS.
• Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most plastics are susceptible to
various types of commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use clean

cloths to remove dirt, carbon dust etc.
• When electric tools are used on fiberglass boats, sports cars, drywall etc.,they are
subject to accelerated wear and possible premature failure, as the fiberglass chips and
grindings and drywall dust are highly abrasive to bearings, brushes, commutator, etc.
During any use on fiberglass or drywall it is extremely important that the tool be cleaned
frequently by blowing with an air jet.
LUBRICATION
Your saw was properly lubricated before leaving the factory. Once every year take or send
your saw to a Black & Decker service center, or authorized service station, for a complete
cleaning, inspection and lubrication. Tools "out of service" for long periods should be
relubricated before being put back to work.
IMPORTANT: To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, maintenance and
adjustment should be performed by authorized service centers or other qualified service
personnel, always using identical replacement parts
ACCESSORIES
BLADES
The RS600 and RS601 Reciprocating Saws will accept up to a 12 inch long blade. Always
use the shortest blade suitable for your project but long enough to keep the blade cutting
through the material. Longer blades are more likely to be bent or damaged during use.
During operation some longer blades may vibrate or shake if the saw is not kept in contact
with the workpiece.
PRUNING ATTACHMENT
A pruning attachment is also available for use with your RS600 and RS601 Reciprocating
Saw. This accessory attaches to the shoe of the saw and applies spring loaded pressure to
the branch while cutting.
Recommended accessories for use with your saw are available from your local dealer or
authorized service center. If you need assistance regarding accessories, please call:
1-800-544-6986.
WARNING: The use of any accessory not recommended for use with this tool could be
hazardous.
