An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also
take into account the times when the tool is switched off or
when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may sig-
nificantly reduce the exposure level over the total working
period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator
from the effects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the
accessories, keep the hands warm, organisation of work pat-
terns.

For Your Safety
Warning! Switch off, remove plug from mains before
adjusting cleaning or if the cable is cut, damaged or en-
tangled.
Caution! Do not touch the rotating chain.
Do not operate the chain saw near other people, chil-
dren or animals. Do not operate the chain saw after
drinking alcohol or under the influence of intoxicating
drugs or medication.
Your machine is double insulated for safety and requires no
earth connection. The operating voltage is 230 V AC,
50/60 Hz (for non-EU countries 240 V as applicable). Only
use approved extension cables. Contact your Bosch Service
Centre for details.
When operating the chain saw with an extension cable, the
following conductor cross-sections are required:
2
– min. 1.5 mm
to a max. cable length of 50 m
2
– min. 2.5 mm
to a max. cable length of 100 m
1 609 92A 11D | (3.12.14)
Note: If an extension cable is used it must be earthed and con-
nected through the plug to the earth cable of your supply net-
work in accordance with prescribed safety regulations.
When using cable drums, these must be completely unreeled.
Only extension cables of design type H07 RN-F or IEC (60245
IEC 66) are permitted for use.
If in doubt contact a qualified electrician or the nearest Bosch
Service Centre.
WARNING! Inadequate extension cables can be dan-
gerous. Extension cable, plug and socket must be of
watertight construction and intended for outdoor use.
Cable connections should be kept dry and off the ground.
It is recommended for increased electrical safety to use a Re-
sidual Current Device (RCD) with a tripping current of not
more than 30 mA. Always check your RCD every time you use
it.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a Bosch
Service Centre.
For products not sold in GB:
WARNING: For your safety, it is required that the plug at-
tached to the machine is connected with the extension cord.
The coupling of the extension cord must be protected against
splash water, be made of rubber or coated with rubber. The
extension cord must be used with a cable strain relief.
Mounting and Tensioning the Chain Saw
Do not connect the chain saw to mains before it is com-
pletely assembled.
Always wear protective gloves when handling the
chain.
Chain and Chain Bar Assembly (see figure A)
– Unpack all parts carefully.
– Align the 2 arrows on the chain-tensioning ring 13 and the

– Place the chain saw on any suitable flat surface.
Use only chains with a drive link thickness of 1,3 mm.
– Slide the saw chain 10 in the slot around the chain bar 11.
Ensure the saw chain is in the correct running direction by
comparing the saw chain with the rotation symbol 17. Take
care that the chain tensioning catch 22 faces outward. The
saw chain 10 is slid on easier when holding the chain bar
11 vertical.
