Routing with Parallel Guide (see figure E)
Slide the parallel guide 26 with the guide rods 27 into the
base plate 14 and tighten as required with the wing bolts 10.
Additionally, the parallel guide can be adjusted lengthwise
with the wing bolts 28 and 29.
Fine adjustment of the length is possible with the fine-adjust-
ment knob 30 after loosening both wing bolts 28. One revolu-
tion corresponds with a setting range of 2.0 mm. One gradu-
ation mark on the fine-adjustment knob 30 changes the
setting range by 0.1 mm.
The effective contact surface of the parallel guide can be
adjusted with the edge guide 31.
Guide the switched on power tool with uniform feed and later-
al pressure on the parallel guide alongside the workpiece
edge.
When routing with the parallel guide 26, the dust/chip extrac-
tion should take place via the special extraction adapter for
the parallel guide 32. The extraction adapter 24 can remain
mounted.
Routing with the Router Compass (see figure F)
The router compass/guide-rail adapter 33 can be used for
circular routing jobs. Mount the router compass as shown in
the figure.
Screw the centring screw 38 into the thread on the router
compass. Insert the point of the centring screw into the
centre of the circular arc to be routed, paying attention that
point of the screw engages into the workpiece surface.
Coarsely adjust the required radius by moving the router com-
pass and tighten the wing bolts 35 and 36.
The length can be fine adjusted with the fine-adjustment knob
37 after loosening the wing bolt 36. One revolution corre-
sponds with a setting range of 2.0 mm. One graduation mark
on the fine-adjustment knob 37 changes the setting range by
0.1 mm.
Guide the switched on power tool over the workpiece with the
right handle 3 and the router compass handle 34.
Routing with Guide Rail (see figure G)
Straight routing cuts can be carried out with help of the guide
rail 40.
The base spacer 39 must be mounted in order to compensate
the height difference.
Mount the router compass/guide-rail adapter 33 as shown in
the figure.
Fasten the guide rail 40 to the workpiece with suitable clamp-
ing devices, e. g. screw clamps. Place the machine with the
guide-rail adapter 33 mounted onto the guide rail.
Routing with Guide Bushing (see figures H–K)
The guide bushing 44 enables template and pattern routing
on workpieces.
In order to use the guide bushing 44, the guide bushing
adapter 41 must be inserted into the guide plate 12 first.
Place the guide bushing adapter 41 from above onto the
guide plate 12 and tighten it firmly with the 2 fastening
screws 42. Pay attention that the release lever for the guide
bushing adapter 43 is freely movable.
2 610 041 858 | (18.10.16)
Choose a suitable guide bushing, depending on the thickness
of the template or the pattern. Because of the projecting
height of the guide bushing, the template must have a
minimum thickness of 8 mm.
Actuate the release lever 43 and insert the guide bushing 44
from below into the guide bushing adapter 41. Ensure that
the encoding keys clearly engage in the grooves of the guide
bushing.
Check the clearance from router bit centre and guide bushing
edge, see section "Centring the Base Plate".
 Select a router bit with a diameter smaller than the
interior diameter of the guide bushing.
For routing with the guide bushing 44 proceed as follows:
– Guide the switched on power tool with the guide bushing
toward the template.
– Push the release lever 16 down and slowly lower the
plunge router until the adjusted depth-of-cut is reached.
Let go of the release lever 16 again to lock this cutting
depth.
– Guide the switched on power tool with the protruding
guide bushing alongside the template applying lateral
pressure.
Centring the Base Plate (see figure L)
To ensure that the distance from router bit centre and guide
bushing edge is uniform, the guide bushing and the guide
plate can be adjusted to each other, if required.
– Push the release lever 16 down and guide the router to the
stop in the direction of the base plate 14. Let go of the
release lever 16 again, in order to lock this plunging depth.
– Loosen the fastening screws 45 by approx. 2 – 3 turns so
that the guide plate 12 can be moved freely.
– Insert the centring pin 46 into the tool holder as shown in
the figure. Hand-tighten the tightening nut so that the
centring pin can still be moved freely.
– Align the centring pin 46 and the guide bushing 44 to each
other by slightly moving the guide plate 12.
– Tighten the fastening screws 45.
– Remove the centring pin 46 from the tool holder.
– Push the release lever 16 and guide the plunge router to
the uppermost position.
Operation with Router Table (Accessory)
 The GOF 2000 CE is compatible with several router tables
available on the accessories market. To ensure safe
mounting and usage as intended for the GOF 2000 CE with
a router table, it is absolutely necessary that you:
– make sure that the selected router table is compatible
with the GOF 2000 CE (please observe the information
of the router table manufacturer)
– follow the mounting and operating instructions of the
router table manufacturer
– follow the safety warnings of the router table manufac-
turer and all safety warnings of the GOF 2000 CE in
these operating instructions.
Bosch shall not assume any liability whatsoever for injuries
and damage that can occur caused by use of the
GOF 2000 CE with a router table other than intended for.
