Jigsaw for cutting thin panels of wood and metal has plunger guide component clamped between two housing sections

摘要

The plunger (18) for operating the saw blade (20) runs in a guide component (22). This is clamped positively between two housing sections (2,4) profiled to match the outer profile of the guide component. Manufacturing tolerances in producing the case sections can be compensated for by spring packing, e.g. elastomer material, between the sections.
