There should be one or two screws where the blade attaches near the body. Unscrew those and the old blade will drop out. Install a new one in reverse BUT there are several types of jig saw blades so take the old one with you to the store so you can match up the shank of the blade.

Some old Bosch jigsaws have a screw that presses down on the top part of the blade. Inside. Look and see if there's a hole in the handle directly above where the blade goes up and down. You'll need a long straight blade screwdriver if there's a hole there. Undo it a few turns then the broken blade will push in turn 90 degrees and come out.

If this is a hand held jig-saw there should be a set screw where the blade and shaft. Maybe a Phillips, slotted or an Allen screw. Loosen and the old blade should fall out, insert new blade and tighten.

There's probably a set screw or possibly a allen head screw. Just loosen it and remove the blade. You may need to extend the blade out; if it isn't turn the saw on and off for a split second until the blade is extended out so you can access the set screw.

The same way you change to put in a new one. Just be careful. there are screwa at the top of the blade that holds the blade in. Just unscrew and take itout and replace with a new one.

I conclude that you do not have a user's manual. Determine the model number from inspecting the saw, then go to Dewalt website and print the manual.
