When sawing profiles, always begin the cut from the narrow
side; when sawing U-profiles, never start the cut from the
open side. Support long profiles in order to avoid blade bind-
ing and kickback of the power tool.
Sawing with Parallel Guide (see figure F)
The parallel guide 10 enables exact cuts along a workpiece
edge and cutting strips of the same dimension.
Loosen wing bolt 11 and slide the scale of the parallel guide
10 through the guide in the base plate 7. Adjust the desired
cutting width as the scale setting at the respective cutting
mark 27 or 28; see Section "Cutting Marks". Tighten wing bolt
11 again.
Maintenance and Service
Maintenance and Cleaning
 Before any work on the machine itself (e. g. mainte-
nance, tool change, etc.) as well as during transport
and storage, remove the battery from the power tool.
There is danger of injury when unintentionally actuating
the On/Off switch.
 For safe and proper working, always keep the machine
and ventilation slots clean.
The retracting blade guard must always be able to move freely
and retract automatically. Therefore, always keep the area
around the retracting blade guard clean. Remove dust and
chips by blowing out with compressed air or with a brush.
Saw blades that are not coated can be protected against cor-
rosion with a thin coat of acid-free oil. Before use, the oil must
be removed again, otherwise the wood will become soiled.
Resin and glue residue on the saw blade produces poor cuts.
Therefore, clean the saw blade immediately after use.
When the battery is no longer operative, please refer to an au-
thorised after-sales service agent for Bosch power tools.
