To avoid accidents, always disconnect battery pack from tool before cleaning
or performing any maintenance.
Maintenance and Lubrication
Service
All tool service should
be performed by a
Bosch Factory Service Center or an Au-
thorized Bosch Service Station. Preventive
maintenance performed by unauthorized
personnel may result in misplacing of inter-
nal wires and components which could
cause serious hazard.
Batteries
Be alert for battery packs that are nearing
their end of life. If you notice decreased
tool performance or significantly shorter
running time between charges then it is
time to replace the battery pack. Failure to
do so can cause the tool to operate improp-
erly or damage the charger.
Care of Blades
Blades become dull even from cutting reg-
ular lumber. If you find yourself forcing the
saw forward to cut instead of just guiding it
through the cut, chances are the blade is
dull or coated with wood pitch.
When cleaning gum and wood pitch from
blade, unplug the saw and remove the
blade. Remember, blades are designed to
cut, so handle carefully. Wipe the blade
with kerosene or similar solvent to remove
the gum and pitch. Unless you are experi-
enced in sharpening blades, we recom-
mend you do not try.
Tool Lubrication
Preventive maintenance
performed by unautho-
rized personnel may result in misplacing
of internal wires and components which
could cause serious hazard. We recom-
mend that all tool service be performed by
a Bosch factory Service Center or Author-
ized Bosch Service Station.
Periodically lubricate moving parts with a
silicone, or light oil spray. Do not use grease
because it tends to attract and hold saw-
dust.
Bearings
All bearings in this tool are lubricated with
a sufficient amount of high-grade lubricant
for the life of the unit under normal operat-
ing conditions. No further lubrication is re-
quired.
Cleaning
Certain cleaning agents
and solvents damage
plastic parts. Some of these are: gasoline,
carbon tetrachloride, chlorinated cleaning
solvents, ammonia and household deter-
gents that contain ammonia.
Ventilation openings and switch levers must
be kept clean and free of foreign matter. Do
not attempt to clean by inserting pointed
objects through openings.
Check regularly to make sure the lower
guard and all moving parts are working
properly.
