Product Information

Full details

The Einhell TP-JS 18/135 Li BL-Solo Power X-Change Jigsaw is designed for ambitious DIYers seeking precise cuts across various materials. Its key benefit is the powerful and long-lasting brushless motor, offering enhanced performance and a 10-year warranty upon registration.

FAQs

What type of battery does this jigsaw use?

This jigsaw uses Einhell's 18V Power X-Change battery system. A battery is not included with the 'Solo' version.

How do I change the saw blade?

The jigsaw features a toolless saw blade holder. You typically operate a lever or button mechanism to release the old blade and insert a new one.

What is the benefit of the brushless motor?

The brushless motor offers more power, a longer runtime per battery charge, and increased durability compared to conventional brushed motors. It also comes with a 10-year warranty after online registration.

Can I make very fine detail cuts with this jigsaw?

Yes, the electronic speed control allows for precise speed adjustments suitable for fine cuts. The pendulum stroke should be switched off for these detailed applications.

How can I ensure tear-free cuts?

Use the included anti-splinter guard and ensure the correct saw blade for the material is selected. For very delicate materials, the integrated plastic shoe cover also helps protect the surface.

Does this saw come with a battery and charger?

This is the 'Solo' version, meaning it is sold without a battery and charger. These must be purchased separately or be part of your existing Einhell Power X-Change battery collection.

What is the purpose of the cutting line indicator?

The cutting line indicator is a small guide on the base plate that helps you follow a marked line on your material, ensuring greater accuracy for straight cuts.

Troubleshooting

Jigsaw does not start.

Ensure the battery is fully charged and correctly inserted. Check if the safety lock-off switch is engaged. Verify the battery contacts are clean.

Blade gets stuck during cutting.

Reduce cutting pressure, ensure the correct blade type and speed are used for the material, and check if the blade is bent or damaged.

Uneven or rough cuts.

Check if the blade is dull or damaged. Ensure the anti-splinter guard is in place. Adjust the speed and pendulum stroke settings appropriate for the material. Ensure the base plate is flat on the workpiece.

Excessive vibration.

Ensure the aluminum base plate is clean and undamaged. Make sure the blade is securely installed. Reduce cutting speed if necessary.

Dust blower not clearing the cutting line effectively.

Ensure the nozzle is not blocked by debris. Make sure the intended cut line is not obstructed by larger dust build-up, or connect a vacuum cleaner for better dust management.
