Do not use dull, cracked, bent or damaged saw
blades. Saw blades with dull or faulty aligned teeth
can cause increased friction as the result of a too nar
row saw gap, jamming or kickback.
Always use saw blades of the correct size and
with matching mounting holes (e. g., star>form or
round). Saw blades that do not fit to the mounting
parts of the saw run out of balance and lead to loss of
control.
Do not use saw blades of high alloy steel (HSS
steel). Such saw blades can easily break.
Do not take hold of the saw blade after working
before it has cooled. The saw blade becomes very
hot while working.
Never use the power tool without the table insert.
Replace a defective table insert. Without a table in
sert plate that is free of defects, injuries can occur on
the saw blade.
Bosch can ensure flawless functioning of the machine
only when original accessories intended for the ma
chine are used.
