its dead

90% of my power tools are Bosch, and I intended to stick with them for the new oscillator, before I found out about the new blade fixing design. I own no Apple products for similar reasons.

The no tool blade change is very convenient, but a pain to operate, I have Arthritis in my thumbs, believe it or not even in my foot thumbs. ?

On the Makita?? Once the lever's off its stop there's zero effort required, and you could always flip it up with a screwdriver.

That sort of defeats the object of a no tool blade change.

True that it does take it outside of the no tool blade change definition, but most of us have a random screwdriver of some sort handy and in reach most of time.

Well my knuckles do drag on the ground at times.

I have often wondered that?

i have now need to get a new osculating saw having me bosh ones has just died will take it down the garden and throw it in next doors garden ,i bet you through throughout i was going to bury it ,
so now go for a corded one or go for a cordless one ,so gents and ladies tongue in cheek ,what have you got, me think going down the road and buying a new makita .

Sorry to hear about your loss. I'm sure she gave you many happy years of service. RIP

Also have a corded bosch, got free courtesy of plumper leaving his behind when I had my central heating upgraded a few years back - he never came back for it and company he worked for went bust soon after - wonder why?

Anyway I hope you find something to fill the void that she's left you with (won't be the same), but with time I'm sure you'll get a long fine. Recommend try signing up for Matchtools.com to find your next long term saw

Don't fret over Osculating .. It just keeps google adds from chasing us with offers .
