Has anyone found that when using this multi-tool by Bosch that the screw that holds blades has a tendency to work loose when being used? If so have you any solutions apart from the obvious one tightening the screw. Many thanks.

Don't have the problem, but you could try a spring locking washer. It would allow you to unscrew to change the tool but would possibly keep the retaining screw locked during use.

Never had it come loose on either of the 2 I've owned.

Me neither and I have hundreds of days up, using mine. Granted though, they are a 'buzzy' little machine, so the bolt working loose isn't impossible!
