General Power Tool Safety Warnings
WARNING Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool. 1) Work area safety a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents. b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes. c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control. 2) Electrical safety a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock. b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded. c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges and moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock. f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
3) Personal safety a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries. c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents. d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury. e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations. f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts. 2 609 004 236 | (5.5.10)
OBJ_BUCH-1204-001.book Page 20 Wednesday, May 5, 2010 8:13 AM
20 | English g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
4) Power tool use and care a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed. b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired. c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
5) Battery tool use and care a) Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack. b) Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire. c) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire. d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact.
If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
Safety Warnings for Jigsaws
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control. g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
2 609 004 236 | (5.5.10)
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
f Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring. Cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock. f Keep hands away from the sawing range.
Do not reach under the workpiece. Contact with the saw blade can lead to injuries. f Apply the machine to the workpiece only when switched on. Otherwise there is danger of kickback when the cutting tool jams in the workpiece.
OBJ_BUCH-1204-001.book Page 21 Wednesday, May 5, 2010 8:13 AM English | 21 f Pay attention that the base plate 9 rests securely on the material while sawing. A jammed saw blade can break or lead to kickback.
f Use the battery only in conjunction with your Bosch power tool. This measure alone protects the battery against dangerous overload.
f 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.
In this manner you can avoid kickback and can place down the machine securely.
f Use only original Bosch batteries with the voltage listed on the nameplate of your power tool. When using other batteries, e. g. imitations, reconditioned batteries or other brands, there is danger of injury as well as property damage through exploding batteries.
f Use only sharp, flawless saw blades. Bent or unsharp saw blades can break or cause kickback. f Do not brake the saw blade to a stop by applying side pressure after switching off. The saw blade can be damaged, break or cause kickback. f Use appropriate detectors to determine if utility lines are hidden in the work area or call the local utility company for assistance.
Contact with electric lines can lead to fire and electric shock. Damaging a gas line can lead to explosion. Penetrating a water line causes property damage or may cause an electric shock. f Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with clamping devices or in a vice is held more secure than by hand. f Keep your workplace clean. Blends of materials are particularly dangerous. Dust from light alloys can burn or explode. f Always wait until the machine has come to a complete stop before placing it down. The tool insert can jam and lead to loss of control over the power tool. f Do not open the battery. Danger of shortcircuiting. Protect the battery against heat, e. g., against continuous intense sunlight, fire, water, and moisture. Danger of explosion. f In case of damage and improper use of the battery, vapours may be emitted. Provide for fresh air and seek medical help in case of complaints. The vapours can irritate the respiratory system.

The vibration emission level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a standardised test given in EN 60745 and may be used to compare one tool with another.
It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure. The declared vibration emission level represents the main applications of the tool. However if the tool is used for different applications, with different accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration emission may differ. This may significantly increase the exposure level over the total working period. 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 significantly 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 patterns.
We declare under our sole responsibility that the product described under “Technical Data” is in conformity with the following standards or standardization documents: EN 60745 according to the provisions of the directives
2004/108/EC, 2006/42/EC.

Orbital Action Settings
Cut Control for Bevel Cuts (see figure J)
The four orbital action settings allow for optimal adaptation of cutting speed, cutting capacity and cutting pattern to the material being sawed.
For cutting-line control of bevel cuts, the “Cut
Control” viewing window 15 has a mark 24 for 0° right-angle cuts and a mark 25 each for the left- or rightward sloping 45° bevel cut according to scale 22.
The orbital action can be adjusted with the adjusting lever 10, even during operation.
No orbital action Small orbital action Medium orbital action Large orbital action The optimal orbital action setting for the respective application can be determined through practical testing. The following recommendations apply: – Select a lower orbital action setting (or switch it off) for a finer and cleaner cutting edge. – For thin materials such as sheet metal, switch the orbital action off. – For hard materials such as steel, work with low orbital action. – For soft materials and when sawing in the direction of the grain, work with maximum orbital action.
The cutting mark for bevel cuts between 0° and
45° results proportionally. It can additionally be drawn on the “Cut Control” viewing window 15 with a non-permanent marker, and easily be removed again. For accurate working, it is best to carry out a test cut. Offsetting the Base Plate (see figure I) For sawing close to edges, the base plate 9 can be offset to the rear. Loosen the screw 23 and slide the base plate 9 toward the vacuum connection 7 to the stop. Tighten the screw 23 again.
Adjusting the Cutting Angle (see figure I)
Sawing with the base plate 9 offset is possible only at a 0° bevel angle. Additionally, “Cut Control” may not be used together with the base 13, the parallel guide with circle cutter 27 (accessory), as well as the splinter guard 20.
The base plate 9 can be swivelled by 45° to the left or right for mitre cuts.
– Remove the dust cover 11 and the vacuum connection 7.
– Pull the saw blade storage 8 out of the base plate 9. – Loosen the screw 23 and lightly slide the base plate 9 toward the vacuum connection 7. – For adjustment of precise mitre angles, the base plate has adjustment notches on the left and right at 0°, 22.5° and 45°. Swivel the base plate 9 to the desired position according to the scale 22. Other mitre angles can be adjusted using a protractor. – Afterwards, push the base plate 9 to the stop in the direction of the saw blade 14. – Tighten the screw 23 again. The dust cover 11, vacuum connection 7 and splinter guard 20 cannot be used for mitre cuts.
Inserting the Battery f Use only original Bosch lithium ion batteries with the voltage listed on the nameplate of your power tool. Using other batteries can lead to injuries and pose a fire hazard.
Switching On and Off To start the machine, first push the lock-off button for the On/Off switch 1 and then press the On/Off switch 2 and keep it pressed. The power light 18 lights up when the On/Off switch 2 is slightly or completely pressed, and allows the work area to be illuminated when lighting conditions are insufficient. To switch off the machine, release the On/Off switch 2. Note: For safety reasons, the On/Off switch 2 cannot be locked; it must remain pressed during the entire operation. 2 609 004 236 | (5.5.10)
OBJ_BUCH-1204-001.book Page 26 Wednesday, May 5, 2010 8:13 AM
Controling the Stroke Rate Increasing or reducing the pressure on the On/Off switch 2 enables stepless stroke-rate control of the switched-on machine. Light pressure on the On/Off switch 2 results in a low stroke rate. Increasing the pressure also increases the stroke rate. The required stroke rate is dependent on the material and the working conditions and can be determined by a practical trial. Reducing the stroke rate is recommended when the saw blade engages in the material as well as when sawing plastic and aluminium. After longer periods of work at low stroke rate, the machine can heat up considerably. Remove the saw blade from the machine and allow the machine to cool down by running it for approx. 3 minutes at maximum stroke rate. Battery Charge-control Indication The battery charge-control indicator 3 indicates the charge condition of the battery when the machine is switched on. It consists of 3 green LEDs.
Continuous lighting 3 x green
Continuous lighting 2 x green
Continuous lighting 1 x green
Slow flashing 1 x green
Temperature Dependent Overload Protection
When using the machine as intended for, it cannot be subject to overload. In case of excessive load or when not within the permitted battery temperature range of 0–70 °C, the speed is reduced or the machine switches off. With reduced speed, the machine will not run at full speed again until after reaching the permitted battery temperature or when the load is reduced. In case of automatic shut-off, switch the machine off, allow the battery to cool down and then switch the machine on again.
2 609 004 236 | (5.5.10)
The 3 LEDs of the battery charge-control indicator 3 flash rapidly when the battery temperature is not within the operating temperature range of
–30 to +65°C, and/or when the overload protection has responded. Protection Against Deep Discharging The lithium ion battery is protected against deep discharging by the “Electronic Cell Protection (ECP)”. When the battery is empty, the machine is switched off by means of a protective circuit: The inserted tool no longer rotates.
Working Advice f When working small or thin workpieces, always use a stable support or a saw station
(Bosch PLS 300). Plunge Cutting (see figure K) f Plunge cuts may only be applied to soft materials, such as wood, gypsum plaster boards, etc.! Use only short saw blades for plunge cutting. Plunge cutting is possible only with the mitre angle set at 0°. Place the machine with the front edge of the base plate 9 on to the workpiece without the saw blade 14 touching the workpiece and switch on. For machines with stroke rate control, select the maximum stroke rate. Firmly hold the machine against the workpiece and by tilting the machine, slowly plunge the saw blade into the workpiece. When the base plate 9 fully lays on the workpiece, continue sawing along the desired cutting line. Parallel Guide with Circle Cutter (Accessory) For cuts using the parallel guide with circle cutter 27 (accessory), the thickness of the material must not exceed a maximum of 30 mm. Remove the “Cut Control” base 13 from base plate 9. For this, lightly press the base together and remove it from the guide 21.

Parallel Cuts (see figure L): Loosen the locking screw 26 and slide the scale of the parallel guide through the lead 21 in the base plate. Set the desired cutting width as the scale value on the inside edge of the base plate. Tighten the locking screw 26.
Heavy contamination of the machine can lead to malfunctions. Therefore, do not saw materials that produce a lot of dust from below or overhead.
Circular Cuts (see figure M): Drill a hole (large enough to accomodate the saw blade) close to the cutting line within the circle to be sawn.
Work the drill hole with a router or file to ensure that the saw blade faces flush against the cutting line. Reposition the locking screw 26 on the other side of the parallel guide. Slide the scale of the parallel guide throught the lead 21 in the base plate. Drill a hole in the centre of the cutout to be sawn. Insert the centring tip 28 through the inside opening of the parallel guide and into the drilled hole. Adjust the radius as scale value at the inside edge of the base plate. Tighten the locking screw 26.
Check the guide roller 12 regularly. If worn, it must be replaced through an authorised Bosch after-sales service agent.
