Only use clean router bits that are in perfect condition.
– Press and hold the spindle lock button 9 (). If required,
turn the spindle by hand until the lock engages.
Actuate the spindle lock button 9 only when at a stand-
still.
– Loosen the tightening nut 11 with the open-end spanner
21 (size 24 mm) by turning in antclockwise direction ().
– Insert the router bit into the collet. The shank of the router
bit must be immersed at least 20 mm into the collet.
– Tighten the tightening nut 11 with the open-end spanner
21 (size 24 mm) by turning in clockwise direction. Release
the spindle lock button 9.
Do not insert a router bit with a diameter larger than
50 mm when the guide bushing is not mounted. Such
router bits do not fit through the base plate.
Do not tighten the tightening nut of the collet without a
router bit inserted. Otherwise the collet can be damaged.
Dust/Chip Extraction (see figure B)
Dust from materials such as lead-containing coatings,
some wood types, minerals and metal can be harmful to
one's health. Touching or breathing-in the dust can cause
allergic reactions and/or lead to respiratory infections of
the user or bystanders.
Certain dust, such as oak or beech dust, is considered car-
cinogenic, especially in connection with wood-treatment
additives (chromate, wood preservative). Materials con-
taining asbestos may only be worked by specialists.
– As far as possible, use a dust extraction system suitable
for the material.
– Provide for good ventilation of the working place.
– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class respirator.
Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the
materials to be worked.
Prevent dust accumulation at the workplace. Dust can
easily ignite.
Mounting the Extraction Adapter
Before mounting the extraction adapter 24, bring the
machine in the upper starting position by actuating the
release lever 16.
Insert the extraction adapter 24, turn the extraction adapter
24 clockwise to the stop until this can be felt to engage
(bayonet catch), and fasten it with wing bolt 25.

Connecting the Dust Extraction
Insert an extraction hose (Ø 35 mm) 23 (accessory) into the
mounted extraction adapter. Connect the extraction hose 23
to a vacuum cleaner (accessory).
The machine can be plugged directly into the receptacle of a
Bosch all-purpose vacuum cleaner with remote starting con-
trol. The vacuum cleaner starts automatically when the
machine is switched on.
The vacuum cleaner must be suitable for the material being
worked.
When vacuuming dry dust that is especially detrimental to
health or carcinogenic, use a special vacuum cleaner.
