Tips
For tight curves it is best to use a narrow saw
blade.
When sawing metal or similar materials, apply
coolant/lubricant alongside the cutting line.
Circle Cutter/Parallel Guide
(Accessory – see figures
With the combined circle cutter/parallel guide 23,
circular cutouts or parallel cuts in materials of up
to 30 mm thickness can be made.
Plunge Cutting (see figures
Plunge cuts may only be applied to soft mate-
rials, such as wood, aerated concrete, gyp-
sum plaster boards, etc.!
Place the machine with the front edge of the base
plate on to the workpiece and switch on. Firmly
hold the machine against the workpiece and by
tilting the machine, slowly plunge the saw blade
into the workpiece.
When the base plate fully lays on the surface,
continue sawing along the cutting line.
Removing the Rotatable Top Handle
For easier sawing in particularly tight locations,
the rotatable top handle 1 can be removed. For
this, press the orange pushbutton beyond the
latching point and pull off the rotatable top handle
upward at the same time.
Before assembling the rotatable top handle 1,
push up the orange pushbutton back into the
starting position again. Attach the rotatable top
handle 1 and press downward until it can be felt
to engage.

The guide roller 10 should occasionally be
checked for wear and lubricated with a drop of oil.
If it is worn, it must be replaced.
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.
In all correspondence and spare parts orders,
please always include the 10-digit order number
given on the nameplate of the machine.
WARNING! Important instructions for con-
necting a new 3-pin plug to the 2-wire cable.
The wires in the cable are coloured according to
the following code:
Do not connect the blue or brown wire to the
earth terminal of the plug.
Important: If for any reason the moulded plug is
removed from the cable of this machine, it must
be disposed of safely.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Before any work on the machine itself, pull the
mains plug.
For safe and proper working, always keep the
machine and the ventilation slots clean.
In order to avoid operational malfunctions, do
not saw gypsum board from below or over-
head.
In extreme working conditions, conduc-
tive dust can accumulate in the interior
of the machine when working with
metal. The protective insulation of the
machine can be degraded. The use of a
stationary extraction system is recom-
mended in such cases as well as fre-
quently blowing out the ventilation slots
and installing a residual current de-
vice (RCD).
