to stand on the tool or its stand to reach them.
CHECK DAMAGED PARTS
Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part
that is damaged should be carefully checked to en-
sure that it will operate properly and perform its in-
tended function. Check for alignment of moving
parts, mounting and any other conditions that may
affect its operation. A guard or other part that is dam-
aged should be properly replaced.
AII repairs, electrical or mechanical,
__ should be attempted only by
trained repairmen. Contact the nearest Bosch
Factory Service Center, Authorized Service Station
or other competent repair service.

__ any others may create a hazard.

-- ommended by the manufacturer for

other tool.
Tool Use
DON'T FORCE TOOL
It will do the job better and safer at the rate for which
it was designed.
USE THE RIGHT TOOL
Don't force small tool or attachment to do the job of
a heaw-duty tool. Don't use tool for purpose not in-
tended -- for example; don't use circular saw for cut-
ting tree limbs or logs.
SECURE WORK
Use clamps or a vise to hold work. It's safer than
using your hand and it frees both hands to operate
the tool.
