Jigsaw Bosch PSA 700 E, 710 W, barrel grip, cutting depth wood 150 mm, steel 10 mm, stroke 20 mm, 3 kg

The Bosch PSA 700 E is an electric jigsaw with a barrel-grip design, 710 W input power and a 20 mm stroke length. It is intended for straight and curved cuts in wood and light metalworking, with cutting depths up to 150 mm in wood and up to 10 mm in steel. The tool is mains-powered and weighs approximately 3 kg, combining a compact barrel grip for control with the cutting capacity required for workshop and site tasks.

Advantages

The barrel-grip form factor provides improved control and maneuverability for detailed cutting and follows cutting lines more naturally than larger handles. With a 710 W motor and a 20 mm stroke, the jigsaw sustains consistent cutting performance across wood and thin metal materials. The specified cutting depths—150 mm in wood and 10 mm in steel—allow the tool to handle a wide range of workpieces while the mains power supply ensures steady torque for continuous operation. The relatively compact weight of about 3 kg supports stable handling without excessive fatigue during extended use.

Suitable for

• Cutting straight and curved profiles in soft and hard wood
• Making plunge cuts and interior cut-outs in wooden panels
• Trimming and cutting thin steel sheets and metal profiles up to 10 mm
• Joinery, cabinetmaking and on-site carpentry tasks
• Work requiring controlled handling and detailed contour cutting

How to use

Secure the workpiece on a stable surface or in clamps before cutting. Fit the appropriate T-shank blade for the material and thickness, ensuring the blade is locked correctly. Place the jigsaw baseplate flat on the material, align the blade with the cut line, and start the tool while maintaining a steady forward motion. For plunge cuts, position the blade tip at the entry point, start the tool and gently lower it into the material. Use moderate feed pressure—allow the blade stroke and motor power to determine cutting speed. After finishing, wait for the blade to stop completely before setting the tool down and disconnecting from the mains.

Usage recommendations

Use blades rated for the specific material (wood, laminated panels or metal) and choose tooth geometry suited to the desired finish. Maintain a straight baseplate and keep the sole plate clean to ensure accurate cuts. For long or curved cuts, consider guiding aids or a fence for improved straightness. Wear appropriate eye and hearing protection and follow local electrical safety practices when operating the mains-powered tool.
