Abstract
A reciprocating power tool may include a driving system including a motor and a transmission received in a housing to drive a reciprocating mechanism. A selection mechanism may provide for selection of an operation mode of the reciprocating tool, including a linear mode of operation and at least one orbital mode of operation. Motion of a reciprocating shaft of the reciprocating mechanism may be guided by a guide bracket that is fixed in the housing and an orbit bushing that is movably coupled in the housing. In the linear mode of operation of the tool, the bushing is in a first position relative to the guide bracket. In an orbital mode of operation of the tool, the bushing is moved to a second position relative to the guide bracket.
