Disconnect the air hose before changing blades.
IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED TO INSTALL THE BLADE
UPSIDE DOWN.
DO NOT REMOVE HOT BLADES.
ONLY USE RECOMMENDED BLADES. USING TOO
LONG OR TOO COARSE BLADES CAN RESULT IN
INJURY.
ONLY USE THE SUPPLIED SNAP-ON SET SCREWS
(SEE PARTS LIST). Using generic set screws on the
PTRS1000 can cause the blade to loosen during use,
resulting in injury.
CHECK SET SCREWS FOR LOOSENING AFTER
EXTENDED USE OR STORAGE.
Installing Blades
1. Users and bystanders should always wear safety
goggles around power tools.
2. Disconnect the tool from the air line.
3. Using the supplied hex tool, loosen both set screws
approximately 3 full rotations so that the blade can
slide in freely.
IT IS NOT NECESSARY TO FULLY REMOVE THE SET
SCREWS IN ORDER TO INSERT THE BLADE.
4. Place the blade in the collet and slide it in UNTIL IT
BOTTOMS OUT. You should hear a faint metallic
clicking when the blade bottoms out – if you do not
hear this and are using a painted blade, check to make
sure the paint is not binding on the collet. For your
safety, do not handle a hot blade.
5. Tighten the rear-most set screw (closest to the grip)
to 15-20 in-lbs.
6. Tighten the front-most set screw to 15-20 in-lbs. If
you are using the PTRS1000 with a 6" blade, this set
screw must align with the hole in the saw blade. (fig 5)
7. Pull on an unsharpened surface of the blade to ensure
it is secure. If it is loose, re-adjust as necessary.
8. Connect the tool to the air line and test the blade,
slowly increasing speed. Do not point the tool toward
anyone while doing this.
9. Use the saw as directed.
Note: Saw blades thicker than 0.057" should not be used.

Removing Blades
After the tool has been set aside to cool down, loosen
both set screws and pull to remove the blade.
Adjusting the Blade Guide
(Depth of Cut)
The blade guide acts to absorb the cutting force against
the workpiece. If cutting in a location where clearance is a
concern, move the blade guide forward to adjust the
depth of cut. Using the supplied hex tool, loosen the
adjustment bolt (front-most bolt with the washer) to
adjust the blade guide forward or backward as necessary.
Securely tighten the adjustment bolt before using the
tool.
If the depth of cut is not deep enough with a standard air
saw blade, the PTRS1000 is equipped with a dual-chuck
mechanism that allows it to use reciprocating saw blades
up to 6 inches in length.
DO NOT OPERATE THE TOOL WITHOUT THE BLADE
GUIDE PROPERLY INSTALLED.
