u When working small or thin work pieces, always use a
sturdy support or a saw table (accessory).
Check wood, press boards, building materials, etc. for
foreign objects such as nails, screws or similar, and remove
them, if required.
Contact Protector
The contact protector 9 attached to the casing prevents
accidental touching of the saw blade during the working
procedure and may not be removed.
Plunge Cutting (see figure D)
u The plunge cutting procedure is only suitable for
treating soft materials such as wood, plaster board or
similar! Do not work metal materials with the plunge
cutting procedure!
Use only short saw blades for plunge cutting. Plunge cutting is
possible only with the mitre angle set at 0°.
Place the machine with the front edge of the base plate 5 on
to the workpiece without the saw blade 8 touching the
workpiece and switch on. For machines with stroke rate
control, select the maximum stroke rate. Firmly hold the
machine against the workpiece and by tilting the machine,
slowly plunge the saw blade into the workpiece.
When the base plate 5 fully lays on the workpiece, continue
sawing along the desired cutting line
Coolant/Lubricant
When sawing metal, coolant/lubricant should be applied
alongside cutting line because of the material heating up.
Maintenance and Service
Maintenance and Cleaning
u Before any work on the machine itself, pull the mains
plug.
u For safe and proper working, always keep the machine
and ventilation slots clean.
If the replacement of the supply cord is necessary, this has to
be done by Bosch or an authorized Bosch service agent in
order to avoid a safety hazard.
Clean the saw blade holder regularly. For this, remove the saw
blade from the machine and lightly tap out the machine on a
level surface.
Heavy contamination of the machine can lead to malfunctions.
Therefore, do not saw materials that produce a lot of
dust from below or overhead.
u In extreme conditions, always use dust extraction as
far as possible. Blow out ventilation slots frequently
and install a residual current device (RCD). When
working metals, conductive dust can settle in the interior
of the power tool. The total insulation of the power tool can
be impaired.
Lubricate the guide roller 7 occasionally with a drop of oil.
Check the guide roller 7 regularly. If worn, it must be replaced
through an authorised Bosch after-sales service agent.
If the machine should fail despite the care taken in
manufacturing and testing procedures, repair should be carried
out by an after-sales service centre for Bosch power tools.
