When working, never place a hand
or fingers in front of the saw blade.
The improper use of accessories
which are not intended for this
machine type increases the dan-
ger of an accident and can lead
to damage to the machine.
■
Connect machines that are used in the open
via a residual current circuit breaker with a trig-
gering current of 30 mA maximum. Use only
extension cables that are intended for outdoor
use and are protected against splash water.
■
When working with the machine, always hold it
firmly with both hands and provide for a secure
stance.
■
Always direct the cable to the rear away from
the machine.
■
Apply the machine to the workpiece only when
switched on.
■
The cutting path must be free of obstacles both
above and blow.
■
When sawing, the complete surface of the
base plate
11
should securely rest on the ma-
terial. For the working of smaller or thin work-
pieces, use a stable foundation or a saw table
(accessory).
■
When the cut is completed, switch off the ma-
chine and then pull the saw blade out of the cut
only after it has come to a standstill (danger of
kick-back).
■
After switching off, do not brake the saw blade
to a stop by applying side pressure.
■
Use only sharp, flawless saw blades. Replace
immediately cracked, bent or dull saw blades.
■
Bosch can assure flawless functioning of
the machine only when original accesso-
ries are used.
The machine is intended for the sawing of wood,
plastic and metal materials.
As a result of the extensive accessory and saw
blade program, the machine can be used for
many purposes and is very well suited for curved
or circular cuts.
■
Before any work on the machine itself, pull
the plug from the socket!
The machine is equipped with a
Bosch SDS (Special Direct Sys-
tem) clamping device. This
makes possible easy and quick
changing of the saw blade with-
out additional tools.
Insert the saw blade (teeth in cutting direction)
until it latches in the stroke rod. When inserting
the saw blade, take care that the back of the saw
blade rests in the groove of the guide roller
6
.
Note:
If the saw blade
cannot be inserted into
the stroke rod because
the slots of the saw
blade holder are not in
the position as shown,
push the SDS lever
briefly to the front and
release.
To change the saw blade, push the SDS lever
7
to the front to the stop; this releases the saw
blade and it is ejected (see Fig.
B
).
When changing the saw blade, the ma-
chine should be held so that no persons
or animals can be injured by the ejection
of the saw blade.
Always use the correct supply voltage:
The
power supply voltage must match the information
quoted on the tool identification plate. Tools with
a rating of 230 V can also be connected to a
220 V supply.
Switching On/Off
Switching on:
Slide the on/off switch
10
to the
front until it latches
(Position I = ON).
Switching off:
Press the on/off switch
10
at the
rear; the switch springs back to
the initial position
(Position 0 = OFF).
