or performing any maintenance.
Service
Preventive maintenance performed by un -
au thorized personnel may result in
misplacing
components which could cause serious
hazard. We recom mend that all tool service
be performed by a Bosch Factory Service
Center or Authorized Bosch Service
Station.
Batteries
Be alert for battery packs that are nearing
their end of life. If you notice decreased
tool performance or significantly shorter
running time between charges then it is
time to replace the battery pack. Failure to
do so can cause the tool to operate
improperly or damage the charger.
Tool Lubrication
Your Bosch tool has been properly
lubricated and is ready for use.
D.C. Motors
The motor in your tool has been engineered
for many hours of dependable service. To
maintain peak efficiency of the motor, we
recommend it be examined every six
months. Only a genuine Bosch replacement
motor specially designed for your tool
should be used.
Bearings
Bearings which become noisy (due to heavy
load or very abrasive material cutting)
should be replaced at once to avoid
overheating and motor failure.

Cleaning
plastic parts. Some of these are: gasoline,
car bon tetrachloride, chlorinated cleaning
and solvents,
detergents that contain ammonia.
Ventilation openings and switch levers
must be kept clean and free of foreign
matter. Do not attempt to clean by
inserting pointed objects through opening.
Develop a periodic maintenance schedule
for your tool. When cleaning a tool be
careful not to disassemble any portion of
the tool since internal wires may be
misplaced or pinched or safety guard
return springs may be improperly
mounted. Certain cleaning agents such as
gasoline, carbon tetrachloride, ammonia,
etc. may damage plastic parts.
Care of Blades
Blades become dull even from cutting
regular lumber. If you find yourself forcing
the saw forward to cut instead of just
guiding it through the cut, chances are the
blade is dull or coated with wood pitch.
When cleaning gum and wood pitch from
blade, remove the battery from the saw
and remove the blade. Remember, blades
are designed to cut, so handle carefully.
Wipe the blade with kerosene or similar
solvent to remove the gum and pitch.
Unless you are experienced in sharpening
blades, we recommend you do not try.
