  1. Found the answer myself. It's the blower / vacuum switch. Helps when you find the correct manual online instead of the one on home depot's site. Wish the manual that came with it was in bigger print for those of us with visual impairments.
  2. Ridgid must have updated the Octane jigsaw after creating the manual, because the button circled in this picture isn't documented, or at least not that I can find. On the Home Depot site there is a picture call out that labels it the Lock On Button, but that clearly is the button at the top of the handle beside the trigger. Can anyone shed some light on this for me? I just bought the tool today. Thanks.
  3. Love this, have the Ryobi 3 speed 1/2" impact wrench now and sometimes can't loosen stubborn bolts. This thing wouldn't have that issue!

    Ryobi Recalls

    Don't know if everyone here already knows about the Ryobi Recall site, it's a tiny link at the very bottom of their website. Anyway, I happened across it and found my corded $40 leaf blower on it I called the 800 number (tried submitting online first and was told to call the 800 number). It was pretty painless, they are sending fedex to pick up my current blower minus the tube next week, so we'll see. https://www.ryobitools.com/power-tools/support/safety Mine had the damage listed in the recall notice too, but no one was hurt.
  5. I bought the 22' version of that ladder yesterday. Last one they had in stock for $99 usually $199. Bought the Werner version last year, so day I like this one better. Easier to operate and my Werner is only rated for 250lbs, which I'm just a little over that without tools. This one is rated for 375 lbs, I should be good now ?
