Surface grinding with sanding disc
Always fit the hand guard (23) when working with the
u
rubber sanding pad (24).
Grinding with a sanding disc can be done without a protect-
ive guard.
See the graphics page for fitting instructions.
Screw on the round nut (26) and tighten it with the two-pin
spanner.
Cup brush
Brushing with cup brushes can be performed without
u
the protective guard.
Always fit the hand guard (23) when working with
u
the cup brush.
See the graphics page for fitting instructions.
The cup brush with M14 thread must be screwed onto the
grinding spindle until it rests firmly against the grinding
spindle flange at the end of the grinding spindle thread.
Tighten the cup brush with an open-ended spanner.
Cutting Metal
For cutting metal with bonded cutting discs or dia-
u
mond cutting discs, always use the protective guard
for cutting (12) or the protective guard for
grinding (11) with a fitted cover for cutting (13).
When using the protective guard for grinding (11) for
u
cutting work with bonded cutting discs, there is an in-
creased risk of being exposed to sparks, particles and
disc fragments if the disc breaks.
When carrying out abrasive cutting, use a moderate feed
that is suited to the material being machined. Do not exert
pressure on the cutting disc and do not tilt or swing the
power tool.
Do not attempt to reduce the speed of a cutting disc coming
to a stop by applying pressure from the side.
The power tool must always work in an
up-grinding motion. Otherwise there
is a risk that it will be pushed uncon-
trolled out of the cut. For best results
when cutting profiles and rectangular
tubing, start at the smallest cross sec-
tion.
Cutting stone
For cutting stone with bonded cutting discs or dia-
u
mond cutting discs for concrete/stone, always use the
extraction guard for cutting with a cutting guide (29)
or the protective guard for cutting (12) or the protect-
ive guard for grinding (11) with a fitted cover for
cutting (13).
Provide sufficient dust extraction when cutting stone.
u
Wear a dust mask.
u
The power tool may be used only for dry cutting/grind-
u
ing.
When using the protective guard for cutting (12) , the
u
protective guard for grinding (11) or the protective
1 609 92A 8PH | (03.05.2023)
guard for grinding (11) with a fitted cover for
cutting (13) for cutting and grinding applications in
concrete or masonry, there is an increased dust load
and an increased risk of losing control of the power
tool, which can lead to kickback.
For cutting stone, it is best to use a diamond cutting disc.
When using the extraction guard for cutting with a cutting
guide (29), the dust extractor must be approved for extract-
ing stone dust. Suitable dust extractors are available from
Bosch.
Switch on the power tool and position
it with the front part of the cutting
guide on the workpiece. Move the
power tool with a moderate feed mo-
tion that is suited to the material being
machined.
When cutting especially hard materials such as concrete
with a high pebble content, the diamond cutting disc can
overheat and become damaged as a result. This is clearly in-
dicated by circular sparking, rotating with the diamond cut-
ting disc.
If this happens, stop cutting and allow the diamond cutting
disc to cool down by running the power tool for a short time
at maximum speed with no load.
If work is noticeably slower and with circular sparking, this
indicates that the diamond cutting disc has become blunt.
You can resharpen the disc by briefly cutting into abrasive
material (e.g. lime-sand brick).
Cutting other materials
For cutting materials such as plastic, composite ma-
u
terials, etc. with bonded cutting discs or Carbide Multi
Wheel cutting discs, always use the protective guard
for cutting (12) or the protective guard for
grinding (11) with a fitted cover for cutting (13). You
can achieve improved dust extraction by using the ex-
traction guard with a cutting guide (29).
Information on structural design
Recesses in load-bearing walls are subject to country-spe-
cific regulations. These regulations must be observed under
all circumstances. Seek advice from the responsible struc-
tural engineer, architect or construction supervisor before
starting work.
Start-Up
Switching on/off
To start the power tool, push the on/off switch (4) forward.
To lock the on/off switch (4) in position, push the on/off
switch (4) forward and down until it clicks into place.
To switch off the power tool, release the on/off switch (4);
or, if the switch is locked, briefly push the on/off switch (4)
backward and down and then release it.
Always check abrasive tools before using them. The
u
abrasive tool must be fitted properly and be able to
move freely. Carry out a test run for at least one
