 Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or bind-
ing of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other
condition that may affect the power tool's operation. If
damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
 Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained
cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind
and are easier to control.
 Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in ac-
cordance with these instructions, taking into account
the working conditions and the work to be performed.
Use of the power tool for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
Service
 Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair per-
son using only identical replacement parts. This will en-
sure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Safety Warnings for Sheet Metal Shears
 The power tool is not suitable for stationary operation.
For example, it may not be clamped in a vice or fastened on
a workbench.
 Only work with the chip deflector 2 mounted. Take care
that the chip deflector is not damaged or bent. Danger of
injury when working without the chip deflector or when it is
damaged. Have a damaged chip deflector replaced immedi-
ately by an after-sales service centre for Bosch power tools.
 Wear protective gloves while working and pay particu-
lar attention to the mains cable. Take care that cut
sheet parts do not bend toward your body or the mains
cable. Sharp burrs develop at the cut steel sheet and can
cause injuries to the operator or damage the mains cable.
If required, press bending steel sheet parts away from your
body or the mains cable using gloves.
 Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with clamp-
ing devices or in a vice is held more secure than by hand.
 Always wait until the machine has come to a complete
stop before placing it down. The tool insert can jam and
lead to loss of control over the power tool.
 Never use the machine with a damaged cable. Do not
touch the damaged cable and pull the mains plug when
the cable is damaged while working. Damaged cables in-
crease the risk of an electric shock.
 Products sold in GB only: Your product is fitted with a
BS 1363/A approved electric plug with internal fuse
(ASTA approved to BS 1362).
If the plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should
be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place by an
authorised customer service agent. The replacement plug
should have the same fuse rating as the original plug.
The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible
shock hazard and should never be inserted into a mains
socket elsewhere.
Products sold in AUS and NZ only: Use a residual current
device (RCD) with a rated residual current of 30 mA or
less.

Noise/Vibration Information
Sound emission values determined according to
EN 60745-2-8.
Typically the A-weighted noise levels of the product are:
Sound pressure level 87 dB(A); Sound power level 98 dB(A).
Uncertainty K =3 dB.
Wear hearing protection!
Vibration total values a (triax vector sum) and uncertainty K
h
determined according to EN 60745-2-8: a
2
K< 1.5 m/s .
The vibration level given in this information sheet has been
measured in accordance with a standardised test given in
EN 60745 and may be used to compare one tool with another.
It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure.
The declared vibration emission level represents the main ap-
plications of the tool. However if the tool is used for different ap-
plications, with different accessories or insertion tools or is
poorly maintained, the vibration emission may differ. This may
significantly increase the exposure level over the total working
period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also
take into account the times when the tool is switched off or
when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may signif-
icantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from
the effects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the acces-
sories, keep the hands warm, organisation of work patterns.
