Wear ear protection!

The typical weighted acceleration is 4.5m / s^2

Intended Use

The machine is intended for sawing, filing, brushing and polishing of wood, plastic, metal and building materials while resting firmly against the workpiece. It is suitable for straight and curved cuts as well as for flush cutting. The saw blade recommendations are to be observed.

For Your Safety

Working safely with this machine is possible only when the operating and safety information are read completely and the instructions contained therein are strictly followed. In addition, the general

safety instructions in the enclosed booklet must be followed. Before using for the first time, ask for a practical demonstration.

If the mains cable is damaged or cut through while working, do not touch the cable but immediately pull the mains plug. Never use the machine with a damaged cable.

Wear protective glasses and ear protection.

Wear protective gloves and sturdy shoes.

• Do not drill, fasten or cut into blind areas where electric, gas or water lines may exist. Use appropriate detectors to determine if these lines are hidden in the work area or call the local utility company for assistance.
  Contacting electric lines may cause fire or electric shock. Striking a gas line will probably result in explosion. Breaking into a water pipe will cause property damage or may cause an electric shock.
  Connect machines that are used in the open via a residual current device (RCD) with an actuating current of 30mA maximum. Use only extension cables that are approved for outdoor use.
  Do not work with materials containing asbestos.
  Observe the legal regulations and recommendations by the manufacturer.
  Insert the mains plug only when the machine is switched off.

Always direct the cable to the rear away from the machine.
Clamp material well. Do not support workpiece with hand or foot. Do not touch objects or the floor with the saw running (danger of kick-back)!
Hold tools by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.

Contact with a "live" wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator.

Apply the machine to the workpiece only when switched on.
■ When switching on, the saw blades may not lay against, touch or jolt into anything!
- When sawing, the base plate 2 must always face against the work piece.
The cutting path must be free of obstacles both above and below.
- When working with the machine, always hold it firmly with both hands and provide for a secure stance.
Always switch off the machine and allow to come to a stop before placing it down.
When the cut is completed, switch off the machine and then pull the saw blade out of the cut only after it has come to a standstill (danger of kick-back).
Use only sharp, flawless saw blades. Change any cracked, bent or dull saw blades immediately.
Never allow children to use the machine.
Bosch is only able to ensure perfect functioning of the machine if the original accessories intended for it are used.

Optional extra

A selection of the illustrated or described accessories can be found at the end of the operation manual.

Replacing/inserting the saw blade

Before any work on the machine itself, pull the mains plug.

Wear protective gloves to avoid injury from the sharp cutting edges of the saw blade both during assembly as well as when checking afterwards.

When changing the saw blade, take care that the blade holder is free of material residue (e. g. wood or metal shavings).

PFZ 700 PE (see figure A)

To insert/replace the saw blade, press the slider 3 downward.

Insert the saw blade to stop.

ake care that the saw blade is held firmly and cannot be pulled out.

PFZ 600 / 600 E (see figure B)

Loosen the Allen screw 11 with the Allen key 10.

Insert the saw blade 1 between the stroke rod 9 and the clamping plate 8.

Take care that the securing pin of the stroke rod 9 engages in the hole of the saw blade (Saw blade cannot be pulled out).

Retighten the Allen screw 11.

Before putting into operation, check the saw blade for secure seating.

Initial Operation

Check for correct mains voltage: The voltage of the power source must agree with the voltage specified on the nameplate of the machine. Equipment marked with 230V can also be connected to 220V .

Switching on and off

Switching on: Press On/Off switch 6 and retain with locking button 5.

Switching off: Press and release On/Off switch 6.

Infinitely-variable stroke rate adjustment (PFZ 600 E / 700 PE)

Light application of pressure on on/off switch 6 results in low stroke rate. Increasing pressure results in a higher stroke rate.

Stroke rate preselection (PFZ 600 E / 700 PE)

The required stroke rate can be preselected (also during operation) using the thumbwheel 7.

After working for longer periods at low stroke rate allow the machine to cool down by running it at maximum stroke rate and no-load for approx. 3 minutes.

Pivoting Base Plate (see figure C)

For adapting to and providing a secure rest for various materials, the angle of the base plate 2 is variable.

Orbital Action Setting (PFZ 700 PE)

By means of the adjustable orbital action, the contact of the saw blade can be adapted to the material to be worked. The saw blade is lifted from the workpiece on the downward stroke which improves chip ejection

and increases the service life of the saw blade.

The orbital action can be selected in 4 steps with the knob 4. The switching can be made with the machine running:

Orbital action switched off (Step 0):

For working thin or hard material such as sheet metal or steel.

When using tools such as files and rasps or to achieve clean cutting edges.

Orbital action step I:

For working non-ferrous metals, I hardwood, plastics or materials of medium density.

Orbital action step II:

For working with soft materials such as light building materials, insulation material, etc.

Orbital action step III:

For working with soft materials such as soft wood or tree wood.

Operating Instructions

Sawing

Adjust saw blade, stroke rate and orbital action to the material to be processed.
Check wood, chip boards, building materials etc. for foreign bodies (nails, screws, etc.) before sawing and remove them, if necessary.
- Do not cover the ventilation slots underneath the tool holder with the hand.

Switch machine on and approach the workpiece to be sawn.

Put base plate 2 on workpiece surface and saw through it with constant contact pressure or feed.

If the saw blade seizes, switch machine off immediately. Spread gap somewhat with suitable tool and pull out saw blade.

Plunge cutting (see figure D / E)

! Plunge cutting may only be used on soft materials, such as wood, aerated concrete, gypsum plaster boards, etc.!.

However, this requires a certain practise and is only possible with short saw blades.

• Set machine on workpiece and switch it on. Ensure that the bottom edge of the base plate 2 rests on the workpiece surface.
• Slowly saw into the workpiece at an angle.
• When the required cutting depth is reached, move machine to a vertical position and continue to saw along the cutting line.
• Switch machine off and lift off workpiece.

Flush sawing (see figure F)

Elastic bi-metal saw blades allow to saw off projecting building elements (e.g. water pipes, iron bars, etc.) directly at the wall.

Apply saw blade directly to the wall and bend slightly with some lateral pressure on machine so that base plate 2 rests on the wall.

Switch machine on and saw off workpiece with constant lateral pressure.

Practical Advice

For tight curves, it is best to use a narrow saw balled.

Because of the strong heating that occurs when sawing metal, apply a cooling or lubricating agent along the cutting line.

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.

To ensure long term flawless operation of the machine, the SDS saw blade holder should be cleaned regularly (PFZ 700 PE).

This can be done by lightly tapping the machine with the foot plate on a flat surface without a saw blade inserted (see figure G).

If necessary, the SDS saw blade holder should be cleaned by blowing out with compressed air (see figure H).

If the machine should fail despite the care taken in manufacturing and testing procedures, repair should be carried out by an authorized 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 connecting 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.
