Frequently Asked Questions - GKS 55 BOSCH

How to change the saw blade?
First, unplug the saw. Use the spindle lock (5) to immobilize the spindle. Loosen the clamping screw (20) with the hex key (4) in the direction of rotation. Tip the protective guard (12) backwards, remove the clamping flange (21) and the blade. To install the new blade, clean it, place it on the tool holder flange (23) observing the cutting direction, then re-tighten the flange and tighten to 6-9 Nm.
How to adjust the cutting depth?
Loosen the clamping lever (27). Move the saw away from or closer to the base plate (14) to decrease or increase the depth. Set the measurement on the scale (28) and retighten the lever. It is advisable that less than one tooth of the blade is visible under the workpiece.
How to use the guide rail?
The guide rail (30) enables straight cuts. Place the rail on the workpiece, adjust the cutting depth to approx. 9 mm for a right-angle cut. Start the saw and guide it along the rail with a steady feed. Before the first cut, adjust the rubber trim of the rail by making a test cut.
What are the important safety instructions?
Read all safety warnings. Always wear eye protection, a dust mask, and hearing protection. Keep the work area clean and well lit. Do not use in explosive atmospheres. Hold the saw firmly with both hands. Keep hands away from the blade. Use a residual current device (RCD) if use is damp.
How to connect a vacuum cleaner?
Mount the dust extraction adaptor (26) onto the chip ejector (16) until it clicks and secure it with the screw (25). Connect a 35 mm diameter extraction hose. Connect the other end to a vacuum cleaner suitable for the material being worked. The vacuum can start automatically if your model allows it.
Why does the blade jam?
A jam can be caused by a dull blade, too fast feed, lateral pinching, or cutting in unsuitable material. Always use a sharp and appropriate blade, guide the saw steadily, and support the workpiece properly. In case of jamming, release the switch and wait for complete stop before removing the saw.
How to adjust the bevel angle for angled cuts?
For GKS 55+G/GCE models, loosen the wing nuts (8) and (15). Tilt the saw sideways and set the desired angle on the scale (6). Tighten the nuts firmly. For the GKS 165 model, only the wing nut (8) needs to be loosened. Note that the cutting depth decreases for mitre cuts.
What is the power of the saw?
The nominal power input is 1,100 W for the GKS 55 (GKS 165) model. The GKS 55+G and GKS 55+GCE models have 1,200 W and 1,350 W respectively. The no-load speed is 4,900 rpm for all.
Where to find spare parts?
Spare parts are available from Bosch after-sales service. You can order online at www.bosch-pt.fr or contact customer service at 0811 360 122 (cost of a local call). To order, provide the ten-digit article number on the rating plate.
How to clean the tool?
Unplug the saw before any cleaning. Clean the ventilation slots regularly with compressed air or a brush. The pendulum protective guard must be able to move freely; remove dust and chips around it. For blades without coating, apply a thin layer of anti-corrosion oil, but wipe it off before sawing.

General Power Tool SafetyWarnings

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.

Work area safety

  • Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents. 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.
  • Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

Electrical safety

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. 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. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. 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. 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. 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.

Personal safety

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.

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. 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. 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. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations. 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. 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.

Power tool use and care

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. 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. 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. 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. 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. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control. 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.

Service

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.

Safety Warnings for Circular Saws

Cutting procedures

DANGER: Keep hands away from cutting area and the blade. Keep your second hand on auxiliary handle, or motor housing. If both hands are holding the saw, they cannot be cut by the blade. Do not reach underneath the workpiece. The guard cannot protect you from the blade below the workpiece. Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of the workpiece. Less than a full tooth of the blade teeth should be visible below the workpiece. Never hold piece being cut in your hands or across your leg. Secure the workpiece to a stable platform. It is important to support the work properly to minimize body exposure, blade binding, or loss of control. Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only, when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a "live" wire will also make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock. When ripping, always use a rip fence or straight edge guide. This improves the accuracy of cut and reduces the chance of blade binding. Always use blades with correct size and shape (diamond versus round) of arbour holes. Blades that do not match the mounting hardware of the saw will run eccentrically, causing loss of control. Never use damaged or incorrect blade washers or bolt. The blade washers and bolt were specially designed for your saw, for optimum performance and safety of operation. Kickback causes and related warnings

  • Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched, bound or misaligned saw blade, causing an uncontrolled saw to lift up and out of the workpiece toward the operator;
  • When the blade is pinched or bound tightly by the kerf closing down, the blade stalls and the motor reaction drives the unit rapidly back toward the operator;

If the blade becomes twisted or misaligned in the cut, the teeth at the back edge of the blade can dig into the top surface of the wood causing the blade to climb out of the kerf and jump back toward the operator. Kickback is the result of saw misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as given below.

  • Maintain a firm grip with both hands on the saw and position your arms to resist kickback forces. Position your body to either side of the blade, but not in line with the blade. Kickback could cause the saw to jump backwards, but kickback forces can be controlled by the operator, if proper precautions are taken.

When blade is binding, or when interrupting a cut for any reason, release the trigger and hold the saw motionless in the material until the blade comes to a complete stop. Never attempt to remove the saw from the work or pull the saw backward while the blade is in motion or kickback may occur. Investigate and take corrective actions to eliminate the cause of blade binding. - When restarting a saw in the workpiece, centre the saw blade in the kerf and check that saw teeth are not engaged into the material. If saw blade is binding, it may walk up or kickback from the workpiece as the saw is restarted. Support large panels to minimise the risk of blade pinching and kickback. Large panels tend to sag under their own weight. Supports must be placed under the panel on both sides, near the line of cut and near the edge of the panel. Do not use dull or damaged blades. Insharpened or improperly set blades produce narrow kerf causing excessive friction, blade binding and kickback. Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking levers must be tight and secure before making cut. If blade adjustment shifts while cutting, it may cause binding and kickback. Use extra caution when sawing into existing walls or other blind areas. The protruding blade may cut objects that can cause kickback.

Lower guard function

  • Check lower guard for proper closing before each use. Do not operate the saw if lower guard does not move freely and close instantly. Never clamp or tie the lower guard into the open position. If saw is accidentally dropped, lower guard may be bent. Raise the lower guard with the retracting handle and make sure it moves freely and does not touch the blade or any other part, in all angles and depths of cut. Check the operation of the lower guard spring. If the guard and the spring are not operating properly, they must be serviced before use. Lower guard may operate sluggishly due to damaged parts, gummy deposits, or a build-up of debris. The lower guard may be retracted manually only for special cuts such as "plunge cuts and angle cuts". Raise the lower guard by retracting the handle and as soon as the blade enters the material, release the lower guard. For all other sawing operations, the lower guard should operate automatically. Always observe that the lower guard is covering the blade before placing saw down on bench or floor. An unprotected, coasting blade will cause the saw to walk backwards, cutting whatever is in its path. Be aware of the time it takes for the blade to stop after switch is released.

Additional safety warnings

Do not reach into the chip ejector with your hands. They could be injured by rotating parts. Do not work overhead with the saw. In this manner you do not have sufficient control over the power tool.

BOSCH GKS 55 - Additional safety warnings - 1

Use suitable 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. Do not operate the power tool stationary. It is not designed for operation with a saw table. Do not use high speed steel (HSS) saw blades. Such saw blades can easily break. Do not saw ferrous metals. Red hot chips can ignite the dust extraction. When working with the machine, always hold it firmly with both hands and provide for a secure stance. The power tool is guided more secure with both hands. Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with clamping devices or in a vice is held more secure than by hand. 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.

Products sold in GB only: Your product is fitted with a BS 1363/A approved electric plug with internal fuse (ASTA approved to BS 1362).

If the plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place by an authorised customer service agent. The replacement plug should have the same fuse rating as the original plug.

The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible shock hazard and should never be inserted into a mains socket elsewhere.

Assembly

Mounting/Replacing the Saw Blade

Before any work on the machine itself, pull the mains plug. - When mounting the saw blade, wear protective gloves. Danger of injury when touching the saw blade. Only use saw blades that correspond with the characteristic data given in the operating instructions. Do not under any circumstances use grinding discs as the cutting tool.

Selecting a Saw Blade

An overview of recommended saw blades can be found at the end of this manual.

Removal of the Saw Blade (see figure A)

For changing the cutting tool, it is best to place the machine on the face side of the motor housing.

  • Press the spindle lock button 5 and keep it pressed. The spindle lock button 5 may be actuated only when the saw spindle is at a standstill. Otherwise, the power tool can be damaged. With the Hex key 4, unscrew the clamping bolt 20 turning in rotation direction.
  • Tilt back the retracting blade guard 12 and hold firmly.
  • Remove the clamping flange 21 and the saw blade 22 from the saw spindle 24.

Mounting the Saw Blade (see figure A)

For changing the cutting tool, it is best to place the machine on the face side of the motor housing.

Clean the saw blade 22 and all clamping parts to be assembled. Tilt back the retracting blade guard 12 and hold firmly. - Place the saw blade 22 on to the mounting flange 23. The cutting direction of the teeth (direction or arrow on saw

blade) and the direction-of-rotation arrow on the blade guard 17 must correspond.

  • Mount the clamping flange bolt 20 turning in rotation direction. Observe correct mounting position of mounting flange 23 and clamping flange 21.
  • Press the spindle lock button 5 and keep it pressed. With the Hex key 4, tighten the clamping bolt 20 turning in rotation direction. The tightening torque is between 6-9 Nm, which corresponds to hand tight plus 1/4 turn.

Dust/Chip Extraction

Before any work on the machine itself, pull the mains plug. Dusts from materials such as lead-containing coatings, some wood types, minerals and metal can be harmful to one's health. Touching or breathing-in the dusts can cause allergic reactions and/or lead to respiratory infections of the user or bystanders.

Certain dusts, such as oak or beech dust, are considered as carcinogenic, especially in connection with wood-treatment additives (chromate, wood preservative). Materials containing asbestos may only be worked by specialists.

  • As far as possible, use a dust extraction system suitable for the material.
  • Provide for good ventilation of the working place.
  • It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class respirator.

Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the materials to be worked. Prevent dust accumulation at the workplace. Dusts can easily ignite.

Mounting the Extraction Adapter (see figure B)

  • Attach the extraction adapter 26 onto the chip ejector 16 until it latches. Secure the extraction adapter 26 additionally with the screw 25. A vacuum hose with a diameter of 35 mm can be connected to the extraction adapter 26. The extraction adapter may not be mounted when no external dust extraction is connected. Otherwise the extraction channel can become clogged. Do not connect a dust bag to the extraction adapter. Otherwise the extraction system can become clogged.

To ensure optimum extraction, the extraction adapter 26 must be cleaned regularly.

External Dust Extraction

Connect the vacuum hose 31 to a vacuum cleaner (accessory). An overview for connecting to various vacuum cleaners can be found at the end of this manual.

The machine can be plugged directly into the receptacle of a Bosch all-purpose vacuum cleaner with remote starting control. The vacuum cleaner starts automatically when the machine is switched on.

The vacuum cleaner must be suitable for the material being worked.

When vacuuming dry dust that is especially detrimental to health or carcinogenic, use a special vacuum cleaner.

Operation

Operating Modes

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

Adjusting the Cutting Depth (see figure C)

Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of the workpiece. Less than a full tooth of the blade teeth should be visible below the workpiece. - Loosen the clamping lever 27. For a smaller cutting depth, pull the saw away from the base plate 14; for a larger cutting depth, push the saw toward the base plate 14. Adjust the desired cutting depth at the cutting-depth scale. Tighten the clamping lever 27 again. - If the cutting depth cannot be fully adjusted after loosening clamping lever 27, pull clamping lever 27 away from the saw and swivel it downward. Release the clamping lever 27 again. Repeat this procedure until the requested cutting depth can be adjusted. - If the cutting depth cannot be sufficiently locked after tightening clamping lever 27, pull clamping lever 27 away from the saw and swivel it upward. Release the clamping lever 27 again. Repeat this procedure until the cutting depth is locked.

Adjusting the Cutting Angle (GKS 55+ G/GKS 55+ GCE)

It is best to place the machine on the face side of the blade guard 17. - Loosen the wing bolts 8 and 15. Tilt the saw sideways. Adjust the desired measure on the scale 6. Tighten the wing bolts 8 and 15 again. Note: For bevel cuts, the cutting depth is smaller than the setting indicated on the cutting-depth scale 28.

Adjusting the Cutting Angle (GKS 165)

It is best to place the machine on the face side of the blade guard 17.

  • Loosen wing bolt 8. Tilt the saw sideways. Adjust the desired setting at the scale 6. Tighten wing bolt 8 again.

Note: For bevel cuts, the cutting depth is smaller than the setting indicated on the cutting-depth scale 28.

Cutting Marks

The 0° cutting mark 10 indicates the position of the saw blade for right-angled cuts. The 45° cutting mark 9 indicates the position of the saw blade for 45° cuts.BOSCH GKS 55 - Cutting Marks - 2

  • For precise cuts, position the circular saw against the workpiece as shown in the figure. It is best to carry out a trial cut.

Starting Operation

Observe correct mains voltage! The voltage of the power source must agree with the voltage specified on the nameplate of the machine. Power tools marked with 230V can also be operated with 220V .

Switching On and Off

To start the machine, first push the lock-off button for the On/Off switch 3 and then press the On/Off switch 2 and keep it pressed. - 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.

Speed preselection (GKS 55+ GCE)

The required speed can be preselected with the thumbwheel 1 (also while running).

The required speed depends on the saw blade being used and on the material being worked (see overview of saw blades at the end of these operating instructions).

Run-on Brake (GKS 55+G/GKS 55+GCE)

An integrated run-on brake reduces the run-on period of the saw blade after switching off the machine.

Reduced starting current (GKS 55+ GCE)

The electronic reduced starting current limits the power consumption when switching the tool on and enables operation from a 13 ampere fuse.

Constant Electronic Control (GKS 55+ GCE)

Constant electronic control holds the speed constant at no-load and under load, and ensures uniform working performance.

Working Advice

Protect saw blades against impact and shock. Guide the machine evenly and with light feed in the cutting direction. Excessive feed significantly reduces the service life of the saw blade and can cause damage to the power tool. Sawing performance and cutting quality depend essentially on the condition and the tooth form of the saw blade. Therefore, use only sharp saw blades that are suited for the material to be worked.

Sawing Wood

The correct selection of the saw blade depends on the type and quality of the wood and whether lengthway or crossway cuts are required.

When cutting spruce lengthways, long spiral chips are formed.

Beech and oak dusts are especially detrimental to health. Therefore, work only with dust extraction.

Sawing Non-ferrous Metals

Note: Use only a sharp saw blade that is suitable for non-ferrous metals. This ensures a clean cut and prevents blade binding.

Guide the switched on power tool against the workpiece and carefully start the cut. Continue the cut with low feed and without interruption.

When sawing profiles, always begin the cut from the narrow side; when sawing U-profiles, never start the cut from the open side. Support long profiles in order to avoid blade binding and kickback of the power tool.

Sawing with Parallel Guide (see figure D)

The parallel guide 11 enables exact cuts along a workpiece edge and cutting strips of the same dimension.

  • Loosen wing bolt 7 and slide the scale of the parallel guide 11 through the guide in the base plate 14. Adjust the desired cutting width as the scale setting at the respective cutting mark 10 or 9; see Section "Cutting Marks". Tighten wing bolt 7 again.

Sawing with Auxiliary Guide (see figure E)

For sawing large workpieces or straight edges, a board or strip can be clamped to the workpiece as an auxiliary guide; the base plate of the circular saw can be guided alongside the auxiliary guide.

Sawing with Guide Rail (GKS 55+G/GKS 55+GCE) (see figure F)

The guide rail 30 is used to carry out straight cuts.

The rubber lip on the guide rail acts as a splinter guard; it prevents fraying of the surface while sawing wooden materials. For this, the teeth of the saw blade must face directly against the rubber lip.

Prior to the very first cut, the rubber lip must be adapted with the guide rail 30 to the circular saw being used. For this, place the guide rail 30 over its complete length on a workpiece. Adjust a cutting depth of approx. 9 mm and the saw blade to a zero degree angle. Switch the circular saw on and guide it uniformly and with light feed in the cutting direction.

Two guide rails can be connected using the connection piece 32. Clamping is carried out with the four screws located in the connection piece.

Maintenance and Service

Maintenance and Cleaning

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

For safe and proper working, always keep the machine and ventilation slots clean.

The retracting blade guard must always be able to move freely and retract automatically. Therefore, always keep the area around the retracting blade guard clean. Remove dust and chips by blowing out with compressed air or with a brush.

Saw blades that are not coated can be protected against corrosion with a thin coat of acid-free oil. Before use, the oil must be removed again, otherwise the wood will become soiled.

Resin and glue residue on the saw blade produces poor cuts. Therefore, clean the saw blade immediately after use.

If the replacement of the supply cord is necessary, this has to be done by Bosch or an authorized Bosch service agent in order to avoid a safety hazard.

Safety instructions

General safety instructions for power tools

WARNING

Read all safety instructions and warnings.

Failure to follow the instructions and safety warnings may result in electric shock, fire, and serious injury.

Keep these instructions and warnings for future use.

The term "power tool" used in these instructions and warnings applies to both corded power tools (with power cord) and cordless power tools (without power cord).

Workplace safety

Keep your workplace clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas can lead to accidents. Do not operate this power tool 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. While operating a power tool, keep children and bystanders away. Distractions can cause you to lose control of the power tool.

Electrical safety

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. 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. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

Do not misuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock. 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. 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.

Personal safety

Read all safety warnings and 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. Work area safety: Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents. 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. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control. Electrical safety: 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. 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. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. 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, or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock. 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. 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. Personal safety: 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. 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. 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 energizing power tools that have the switch on invites accidents. 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. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts. 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.

The possibility of installing dust extraction and collection devices and their correct use should be verified. The use of a vacuum cleaner can reduce the danger posed by dust.

Use of the power tool and handling it

Do not overreach. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control. 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.

Service

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.

Safety instructions for all saws

Kickback

DANGER: Keep hands away from cutting area and the blade. Keep your second hand on auxiliary handle, or motor housing. If both hands are holding the saw, they cannot be cut by the blade.

Do not place your hand under the workpiece. The guard cannot protect you from the blade below the workpiece.

The depth of cut should correspond to the thickness of the workpiece. The saw blade should not protrude more than the height of a tooth beyond the workpiece.

Never hold the workpiece in your hands or across your leg. Secure the workpiece to a stable platform. It is important to support the work properly to minimize body exposure, avoid blade binding, or loss of control.

When performing operations where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord, hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces. Contact with a 'live' wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool 'live' and could give the operator an electric shock.

When ripping, always use a rip fence or straight edge guide. This improves the accuracy of the cut and reduces the chance of blade binding.

Use discs of the correct size and matching the mounting holes (e.g., round or shaped). Incorrect discs that do not match the mounting parts can cause loss of control over the tool.

Never use damaged or incorrect abrasive discs or screws. Abrasive discs and screws were specially designed for optimal performance and safety.

Kickback and corresponding safety instructions

  • Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or jammed rotating disc, leading to uncontrolled lifting of the tool and its ejection from the workpiece in the direction of the operator;

- if the disc is pinched or jammed in the cut, it stops and the tool is thrown back towards the operator;

- if the disc is twisted or misaligned in the cut, the teeth of the disc can catch the surface of the workpiece, causing the disc to be thrown out of the cut and the tool to be thrown towards the operator. Kickback is the result of improper use or incorrect operation. It can be avoided by taking the precautions described below. Hold the tool firmly with both hands and position your hands so that you can counteract the forces of a sudden kickback. Always stand to the side of the disc, not in line with it. In case of a kickback, the disc may jump back, but the operator can counteract these forces with proper precautions. Do not jam the disc or interrupt the work abruptly; let the tool come to a complete stop before lifting it from the workpiece. Never try to remove the disc from the workpiece or pull it out while the disc is still rotating, as this may cause a kickback. Investigate and eliminate the cause of the disc jamming. If you need to restart the tool that got stuck in the workpiece, center the disc in the cut and check that it can rotate freely. If the disc is jammed, restarting may cause the disc to be thrown out of the workpiece or cause a kickback. Large discs should be placed on a stable support to reduce the risk of kickback when the disc jams. Large discs tend to sag under their own weight. Place the disc on supports on both sides, near the cutting line, close to the disc. Do not use dull or damaged discs or discs with misaligned teeth, as they increase friction, cause jamming, and lead to kickback. Before starting work, check the guard and adjust it properly. Replacing the guard during operation may lead to jamming and kickback. Be especially careful when cutting into walls or other hidden areas. When cutting into hidden objects, the disc may become blocked and cause kickback.

Russian 137

Function of the protective guard

The protective hood is equipped with a tested, flawless closure. Do not use force if the movement of the lower protective hood is blocked; it closes with a delay. Never lift or pull the protective hood by the open position with your hands. Dust on the lower protective hood may cause it to bend. Open the protective hood by the handle and ensure it is in its free position. Before starting work, check the function of the lower protective hood spring. If the lower protective hood spring does not work satisfactorily, have it serviced before use. Damaged parts, fasteners, or stops may block the lower protective hood. Open the protective hood only when performing cuts, such as plunge cuts. Open the lower protective hood only with the retracting lever, as soon as the blade enters the workpiece. Before each use, ensure the protective hood closes automatically. When you place the tool on a workbench or floor, the lower protective hood must cover the blade. The unguarded, rotating blade will drive the tool towards you, so ensure the tool is stable. Consider the protrusion of the blade.

Additional safety warnings

Do not touch the dust extraction port with your hands. The rotating part may cause injury. Do not hold the tool above your head. In this position, you do not have sufficient control over the power tool. Use appropriate metal detectors to locate hidden pipes or wires, or consult the local utility company. Contact with a live wire can cause fire and electric shock. Damage to a gas pipe can lead to an explosion. Damage to a water pipe results in property damage or may cause electric shock. The power tool is not intended for stationary use. It is not designed for use with a heavy stand. Do not use blades made of high-speed steel. Such blades can break easily. Do not use damaged blades. Warped blades may catch. Always wear safety goggles.

Always hold the power tool with both hands during operation, preferably in a stable position. Two-handed operation provides more control over the power tool. Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped in a vice or with clamps is held more securely than in your hand. Always switch off the power tool and wait until it has come to a complete stop before placing it down. The tool may jam, and this could lead to loss of control over the power tool.

However, if the power tool is used for other work, with different accessories, or with insufficient maintenance, the vibration level may differ. This may significantly increase the vibration load over the entire working period.

When estimating the vibration load, the times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but not actually in use must also be taken into account. This can significantly reduce the vibration load over the total working time.

Implement additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of vibration, such as: servicing the power tool and the cutting tools, keeping hands warm, and organizing work processes.

Press the locking button 15 and hold it pressed. - Tighten the clamping screws 20 in the direction indicated. The tightening torque should be 6-9 Nm, which corresponds to hand-tightening (see Fig. 1/6o-bot).

Dust and chip extraction

Avoid manipulating the electric tool with the plug pulled out. Dust from materials such as paint containing lead, some types of wood, minerals, and metals can be harmful to health. Contact with dust and inhalation of dust into the respiratory tract can cause allergic reactions and/or respiratory diseases in the operator or nearby personnel.

Certain types of dust, e.g., oak and beech dust, are considered carcinogenic, especially when combined with additives for wood treatment (chromate, wood preservatives). Materials containing asbestos should only be worked on by specialists.

  • If possible, use a dust extraction system suitable for the material. Good ventilation of the workplace is recommended. It is advisable to use a respirator of class P2.

Follow the regulations in force in your country regarding the materials to be processed. Avoid accumulation of dust at the workplace. Dust can easily ignite.

Installing the extraction adapter (see Fig. B)

Push the extraction adapter 26 onto the chip outlet 16 until it clicks into place. Tighten/loosen the extraction adapter 26 with screw 25. The extraction adapter 26 can be connected to an extraction hose with a diameter of 35 mm. Do not install the extraction adapter on the extraction device without a locking mechanism. The hose may become blocked. Do not operate the tool without the extraction adapter. The extraction system may become clogged as a result.

To ensure proper extraction, the extraction adapter 26 must be cleaned regularly.

External dust extraction system

Connect the extraction hose 31 to the vacuum cleaner (accessory). An overview of possible connections to different vacuum cleaners is provided at the end of this manual.

The electric tool can be connected directly to a universal vacuum cleaner with a suitable connection. The vacuum cleaner must be switched on before the electric tool is switched on.

The vacuum cleaner must be suitable for the material being processed.

Use a special vacuum cleaner for particularly hazardous dusts, such as those from asbestos or wood dust.

Working with the tool

Operating mode

Before using the power tool, pull the plug out of the socket.

Adjusting the cutting depth (see figure C)

The cutting depth should correspond to the thickness of the workpiece. The blade must not protrude more than the height of a tooth beyond the workpiece. - Loosen the clamping lever 27. For a shallow cutting depth, pull the base plate 14 away from the tool; for a deeper cut, push the base plate 14 toward the tool. Set the desired dimension on the cutting depth scale. Tighten the clamping lever 27 firmly. - If after loosening the clamping lever 27 you cannot fully set the cutting depth, turn the clamping lever 27 again and loosen it. Loosen the clamping lever 27. Repeat this operation until you have set the desired cutting depth. - If after tightening the clamping lever 27 you still cannot lock the cutting depth sufficiently, loosen the clamping lever 27 again and turn it upward. Loosen the clamping lever 27. Repeat this operation until you have locked the cutting depth.

Setting the cutting angle (GKS 55+G/GKS 55+GCE)

Place the power tool on the front side of the protective guard 17.

Loosen the wing bolts 8 and 15. Turn the tool to the side. Set the desired dimension on the scale 6. Tighten the wing bolts 8 and 15 firmly. Note: The cutting depth at an angle is less than the value shown on the cutting depth scale 28.

Selecting the speed (GKS 55+GCE)

Using the adjusting wheel 1, you can set the required speed even during operation.

The required speed depends on the installed saw blade and the material to be machined (see overview of saw blades in the operating instructions for the power tool).

Run-down brake (GKS 55+G/GKS 55+GCE)

The integrated run-down brake shortens the run-on time of the saw blade after the power tool is switched off.

Starting current limiting (GKS 55+ GCE)

The electronic system limits the starting current when the power tool is switched on, enabling operation from a 16 A socket.

Constant Electronics (GKS 55+GCE)

Constant Electronics supports the rotation speed of the idle and under load, ensuring uniform productivity of work.

Intended use

Protect the saw blades.

Guide the power tool evenly and gently along the cutting direction. Excessive feed reduces the service life of the tool and can damage the power tool.

Productivity and cutting quality depend significantly on the condition and shape of the saw blade teeth. Therefore, use only sharp blades suitable for the material being processed.

Saw blades

The correct choice of saw blade depends on the type and quality of the wood, as well as on the type of cut - longitudinal or cross.

For longitudinal cuts, use a blade with a coarse tooth shape.

Dust from wood can be particularly harmful to health, so work only with a dust extractor.

For metal

Note: Use only suitable blades for light metals. This ensures clean cuts and prevents the saw blade from jamming.

On cuts, always start cutting on the narrow side; on U-shaped cuts, never start cutting from the open side. Guide the saw blade carefully to prevent jamming of the saw blade and kickback of the power tool.

Operating instructions

Grip the power tool firmly with both hands. Guide the electric planer in the direction of planing. Only feed the planer with the grain to avoid reducing the service life of the blades and damaging the electric planer.

The planing blades are mounted in the blade holder. Use only sharp planing blades to ensure a clean cut of the workpiece material.

Planing wood

The correct choice of planing speed depends on the wood type, the wood quality, and the planing direction (with or against the grain).

Planing against the grain destroys the natural fiber structure.

When planing, always consider the risk of kickback and wear protective equipment.

Planing non-ferrous metals

Note: Use only sharp planing blades designed for non-ferrous metals. This ensures a clean cut and prevents the planing blade from jamming.

The electric planer is suitable for all materials and is easy to handle. It works smoothly with a gentle feed.

When planing, always work against the rotation direction of the blade shaft. When planing with the grain, never work from the open side. Always plane with the grain to avoid tearing the wood and damaging the electric planer.

Planing with a parallel stop (m.B. Man.D)

This allows for the correct positioning of the edges of the cut workpiece and the positioning of the folds.

150|Ukrainian

Turn the screw handle 7 and press the calibration control into the support plate 14. Using the calibration marks, set the required bending angle for the positioning 10 or 9. Check the positioning marks. Tighten the screw handle 7 again.

Positioning with an additional stop (see Fig. E)

Careful handling of power tools

Never operate the power tool. Use power tools only as intended. To work safely, when using a power tool, follow the manufacturer's instructions. Do not use power tools that cannot be turned on and off with the switch. A power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired. Before adjusting the power tool, changing work tools or accessories, or when you are going to use the power tool for a long time, disconnect the plug from the socket and/or remove the battery pack. This precaution prevents accidental starting of the power tool. Store power tools in places where they cannot be reached by children. Do not allow them to be used by people who are not familiar with the instructions for working with them. When power tools are used by unqualified persons, they can be dangerous. Handle power tools with care. Check regularly that the moving parts function correctly, that they do not jam, and that there are no damaged parts that impair the function of the power tool. Before using the power tool, have damaged parts repaired. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp edges are less likely to jam and are easier to control.

Use power tools, accessories, working tools, etc., in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. Consider the working conditions and the specific operation to be performed.

The use of power tools for purposes different from those intended by the manufacturer can create a dangerous situation.

Instructions

Have power tool repairs carried out only by qualified specialists using original spare parts. This ensures the safety of the power tool.

Safety instructions for working with circular saws

Technical data

DANGER: Keep the disc at a distance of 30 cm from the body and from the power tool. When using the disc, the protective cover of the power tool must be in place. When the disc is used with the guard, there is a danger of the disc breaking. Do not place the disc near flammable materials. The guard may protect you from fragments of the workpiece and the tool. Adjust the depth of cut of the workpiece on the opposite side of the disc. The disc must be applied at a distance of no more than one height of the disc. Never cut a workpiece that is attached to the edge of the table. Secure the workpiece by clamping it in a stable fixture. To limit the risk of electric shock, contact with the disc, or loss of control of the power tool, it is important to switch off the power tool before changing the disc. When there is a danger during work, the worker must immediately remove the power tool from the workpiece. Do not use the power tool with a damaged or cracked disc. Use only discs with the correct dimensions and the correct bore (e.g., with a hole or a key). Discs that do not fit the spindle of the power tool may cause loss of control during work. Never use damaged or worn discs. The discs are designed specifically for your power tool and ensure safe operation. Reject and replace any disc that shows signs of damage or wear.

Sudden reaction of the workpiece, jamming, or incorrect orientation of the power tool, which may lead to uncontrolled kickback of the tool in the direction of the workpiece and the power tool;

  • If the disc jams or gets stuck in the workpiece, the tool may suddenly stop, and the power tool may kick back in the direction of the workpiece and the power tool;

Bulgarian 169

The cutting disc may be pulled out of the cut incorrectly, or from the rear side, so that it gets stuck in the surface of the cut, as a result of which the cutting disc bounces off the cut in the direction of the operator. The kickback is the result of incorrect handling of the power tool. This can be avoided by taking appropriate precautions, as described below. Hold the power tool firmly with both hands and position your body and arms so that you can counteract the forces of kickback. If possible, the tool should be positioned so that the cutting disc is not in contact with the material at the point where the cut is being made, and never place the cutting disc above the material being cut. When kickback occurs, the power tool may jump back, but with proper precautions, the operator can control it. If the cutting disc becomes jammed or the work is interrupted, switch off the power tool and hold it still in the material until the disc has completely stopped. Do not attempt to remove the disc from the cut or pull it back while the disc is still moving, as this could cause kickback. Investigate and correct the cause of the jamming of the cutting disc. If you want to restart the power tool while it is in the material, center the cutting disc in the cut and check that the disc is not in contact with the material before switching on. If the cutting disc becomes jammed when starting the power tool, it may jump out of the material or cause kickback. When cutting with a guide, support the workpiece to reduce the risk of jamming and kickback. The workpiece may be pulled by the weight of the tool itself. Support the workpiece on both sides, both near the cut and at the far edge. Do not use dull or damaged cutting discs. When the discs are dull or bent in the direction of the cut, the cutting gap is too narrow, which increases friction and can lead to jamming and kickback. Before cutting, make sure that the mechanism for adjusting the cutting depth is properly adjusted. If during cutting the adjustment changes due to the forces involved, this can lead to jamming and kickback of the power tool. Special precautions should be taken when cutting in existing walls or other elements, as the surface may have hidden objects. The rotating cutting disc may hit a hidden object, become blocked, and cause kickback.

Function of the lower guard

Before operating the tool, check that the blade guard closes without problems. Do not use force, the blade guard must be able to move freely and close completely. Never grab or hold the blade guard in a position where it is open. If the blade guard is damaged, the tool must be repaired. Check the parts that may be worn or damaged, and the blade guard must be able to move freely. Check the function of the blade guard spring. If the blade guard spring does not work properly, the tool must be repaired before use. Check the parts that may be worn or damaged, and the blade guard must be able to move freely. Open the blade guard only when cutting with a special tool, e.g., cutting with a guide and a stop. Open the blade guard with the lever and release it when the cutting disc is in the workpiece. The blade guard must work automatically for other cutting operations. Do not leave the tool running on the ground, as the blade guard may be covered by the disc. Do not turn the tool over while it is running, as the blade guard may be covered by the disc. Be careful with the time it takes for the disc to stop after switching off.

Additional safety instructions for work

Do not place your hands near the exhaust openings. You may be injured by the rotating parts. Do not work with the tool in a position where you cannot control it sufficiently. Use suitable tools to reveal any hidden surfaces and follow the corresponding local regulations. Contact with live wires can cause electric shock. Damage to the power cord can cause electric shock. Damage to the workpiece can cause electric shock. Do not use stationary power tools. They are designed for work on a bench. Do not use cutting discs from a high-speed steel (HSS) saw. Such discs are brittle. Do not cut metal. The heated workpiece can damage the dust extraction system.

170|Bulgarian

For safe operation, hold the power tool firmly and ensure a stable position. Check that the power tool is switched off before connecting to the power supply. Ensure that the workpiece is secure. Use suitable accessories and hold the tool with both hands. If you leave the power tool, switch it off and wait until it has stopped completely. Otherwise, the tool may cause injury or damage to other objects.

The choice of cutting disc depends on the type of metal, its quality, and whether it is cut dry or wet.

When cutting steel/iron, sparks and chips are formed.

When cutting wood and wood-like materials, dust is generated. Therefore, work only with a dust extraction/aspiration system.

Cutting non-ferrous metal

Caution: Use only sharp cutting discs intended for non-ferrous metal. This ensures a smooth cut and prevents the cutting disc from jamming.

Switch on the power tool, guide it to the cutting point carefully. Then continue with a feed motion without interruption.

For straight cuts, guide the cutting disc along the marked line. For curved cuts, always use the open side. Always release the lever for the cutting head to prevent the cutting disc from jamming and the risk of kickback.

Cutting with the guide for accelerated cutting

(See Figure D)

The guide for accelerated cutting 11 allows precise cuts to be made quickly and easily, e.g., cutting square tubes.

Loosen the screw with the hex key 7 and insert the guide for accelerated cutting 11 through the opening in the base plate 14. Set the guide to the desired depth using the corresponding marking 10 (see section "Marking for cuts"). Then tighten the screw with the hex key 7 again.

Cutting with the guide (see Figure E)

For cutting larger sheets, attach the base plate to the saw blade as a support and guide the circular saw, keeping the base plate against the sheet.

Cutting with the guide rail (GKS 55+G/GKS 55+GCE) (see figure F)

With the guide rail you can make straight cuts.

The dust guide and the saw blade guard must be adjusted for the respective application before opening the protective hood. The saw blade must be positioned correctly relative to the dust guide.

Before first use, the saw blade guard must be adjusted for working with the guide rail. To do this, set the saw blade to the maximum cutting depth. Adjust the guard so that it is approximately 9 mm above the workpiece and the cutting angle is 90°. Switch on the circular saw and move it with even feed and moderate pressure in the direction of cutting.

With the help of the connecting link 32, two guide rails can be connected. The connection is made with the four screws on the connecting link.

Maintenance and service

Maintenance and cleaning

Before any work on the power tool, remove the battery from the tool. For good and safe work, keep the power tool and the ventilation slots clean.

The protective guard must be able to move freely and close automatically. Therefore, keep the area around the protective guard clean. Remove dust and chips with a soft brush.

Regularly clean the protective hood and the saw blade guard with a soft brush. Do not use cleaning agents or solvents. To remove stubborn dirt, use a soft brush.

The saw blade guard must be cleaned regularly to ensure proper function. Use a soft brush to remove dust and chips after each use.

Safety instructions for circular saws

Installing the saw blade

DANGER: Do not place your hands in the cutting area or near the blade. Keep your other hand on the auxiliary handle or on the motor housing. If both hands are holding the saw, they cannot be cut by the blade. Do not reach under the workpiece. If the blade guard is under the workpiece, it cannot protect you from the blade. Always observe the workpiece thickness. The blade can be visible from below the workpiece only up to the height of the blade.

Macedonian | 177

Before turning on the device, check the device and the power cord for damage. If the device is damaged, contact the manufacturer for safety instructions. Before cleaning the board, unplug the device from the power outlet. Use an antistatic mat for work on the board, as the work area may contain hidden electrical cables or the device's own cable. Contact with electrical conductors or metal parts of the electrical device may cause an electrical shock. Always follow the safety instructions and use the appropriate tools. Before cleaning the board, check the precision of the cleaning and adjust the power according to the board's label. Always use the correct cleaning agent (e.g., with a diamond or ceramic tip). The cleaning agents for the board, which are recommended by the manufacturer, are not dangerous if used according to the control instructions. Never use acidic or abrasive cleaning agents for the board. The cleaning agents for the board are specially designed for your board, for optimal work without danger. Always wear protective goggles and appropriate safety equipment.

  • The return stroke is an unexpected reaction of the board, such as bending, breaking, or incorrect cutting of the board, which can cause the board to be thrown or to be pulled under the device being processed. If the board is bent or broken during the cutting process, it can be ejected, and the motor power can throw the board under the device being processed. If the board is bent or incorrectly cut, the board's edge can catch on the surface of the device being processed, and the board can be pulled into the cutting process, and the board is pulled under the device being processed. The return stroke is the last possible use of the board. It can be prevented with appropriate safety measures, as described.

Before starting the board, hold it with both hands and place it in a position where you can control the return stroke. Always use the board's safety guard, never place the board in the same line as your body. In case of a return stroke, the board may jump backwards, but the user can control it if they follow the appropriate safety measures. Since the board's label is visible and you can see the work area, check that the board is held firmly and safely in the device being processed, while the board is

in the process of moving. Never try to pull the board out of the device being processed or pull it backwards, while the board is in motion, as this may cause a return stroke. Open the safety guard for the board and follow the appropriate safety measures.

After the workpiece has been machined, the blade guard should be returned to its original position and checked to ensure that it is properly engaged. If the blade guard is not properly engaged, it may come off the workpiece during machining and cause a serious injury. Use the guard with the blade guard fully covering the blade. The blade guard may be lifted for certain operations. The guard must be open on both sides, both near the workpiece and at the rear. Do not use the blade without the guard. The blade guard is not a proper guard for all operations; it is designed for certain cuts and may require additional adjustments. Always use the guard with the blade guard fully covering the blade. If the guard is not properly adjusted, the blade may be exposed and cause a serious injury. Be especially careful when cutting in confined spaces, such as in a corner. The blade guard may be removed for cutting in certain situations, but this may cause a serious injury.

Function of the lower blade guard

Before use, check that the lower blade guard closes properly. Do not use the saw if the lower blade guard does not move freely and close instantly. Never clamp or tie the lower blade guard in the open position. If the saw is accidentally dropped, the lower blade guard may be bent. Open the lower blade guard with the retracting lever and make sure it moves freely and does not touch the blade or any other part at all angles of cutting depth. Check that the lower blade guard spring returns the guard to the closed position. If the lower blade guard and the spring are not operating properly, the saw must be serviced before use. Damaged parts, guards, or springs must be repaired or replaced by an authorized service center. Open the lower blade guard with the retracting lever for special operations such as plunge cuts and compound cuts. Open the lower blade guard

178|Macedonian

with the retracting lever and release it, and make sure the guard closes completely. Before working with the saw, the lower blade guard must be closed automatically.

Never place the saw on the workbench or floor unless the lower blade guard covers the blade completely. The exposed blade will cause the saw to move backwards and cut whatever is in its path. Be aware of the time required for the blade to stop after the switch is released.

BOSCH GKS 55 - Adjusting the bevel angle (GKS 165) - 2

The cutting mark 0° 10 shows the position of the blade from the base when cutting at 0°. The cutting mark 45° 9 shows the position of the blade from the base when cutting at 45°. For example, set the circular saw blade to be processed as shown in the figure. It is best to make a test cut.

Putting into operation

Check the electrical voltage! The voltage on the back of the device must correspond to the one indicated on the specification plate of the electrical device. Electrical devices marked with 230 volts can also be used on 220 volts.

Switching on/off

To start the electrical device, first activate the switch by pressing the on/off switch (2). To switch off the electrical device, press the on/off switch (2) again.

Note: For safety reasons, the on/off switch (2) must not be blocked, as it must remain accessible during operation.

Setting the speed dial (GKS 55+GCE)

Using the speed dial (1), you can set the required speed for the duration of use of the device.

The required speed depends on the type of material being processed (see the table for material processing).

Speed pre-selection

(GKS 55+G/GKS 55+GCE)

The pre-selected speed limits the maximum speed of the electrical device.

Limiting the starting current (GKS 55+GCE)

The electronic starting current limitation reduces the current surge when switching on the electrical device and enables operation on a 16-A fuse.

Constant electronics (GKS 55+GCE)

The constant electronics keep the speed constant under load and enable a constant speed during operation.

Guide rail (see Appendix E)

For processing large panels or for cutting straight cuts, the guide rail can be used as an auxiliary guide for guiding the circular saw along the main plate along the length of the guide rail.

Cutting with guide rail (GKS 55+ G/GKS 55+ GCE) (see Appendix F)

With the guide rail you can make straight cuts.

The guide rail's anti-slip coating serves as protection against slipping, which prevents the saw from slipping on the surface of the workpiece. Therefore, the rail's anti-slip coating must always be placed directly on the workpiece.

The guide rail can be used with the circular saw for cutting panels at speed.

First, place the guide rail at the desired length on the workpiece. Place the anti-slip coating 9 mm away from the cutting line. Turn on the circular saw and guide it evenly with steady placement in the straight cut.

With the connecting piece you can join two guide rails. The connection is made with the help of the four screws that are attached to the connecting piece.

Maintenance and service

Maintenance and cleaning

Before any intervention on the electrical device, pull the plug out of the socket.

Srpski | 183

Keep the electrical device clean and open for inspection, so that it can work well and safely.

The protective hood with lifting mechanism must always be able to move freely and must not be closed. The area around the protective hood with lifting mechanism must always be clean. Remove dust and chips with compressed air or with a brush.

Emergency stop for the saw can be triggered by pressing the switch. Before cutting, remove the oil so that no stains remain on the wood.

Read the safety warnings and instructions that come with the power tool. Failure to follow the safety warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire, and/or serious injury.

If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only an extension cord that is suitable for the power tool's power rating. To avoid the risk of electric shock, use only extension cords that are approved for outdoor use.

Mounting/Changing the Circular Saw Blade

Before any work on the power tool, pull the mains plug out of the socket. When mounting the saw blade, wear protective gloves. Touching the saw blade poses a risk of injury. Use only saw blades that match the characteristic data specified in these operating instructions. Never use grinding discs as a working tool.

You will find an overview of recommended saw blades at the end of these instructions.

Removing the saw blade (see figure A)

For changing tools, best place the power tool on the side of the motor housing.

  • Press the spindle lock button 5 and hold it down. Activate the spindle lock button 5 only when the saw spindle is at a standstill. Otherwise, the power tool may be damaged.
  • Using the hex key 4, unscrew the clamping screw 20 in the direction of rotation 1.
  • Swing the pendulum protective guard 12 back and hold it firmly.
  • Remove the clamping flange 21 and the saw blade 22 from the saw spindle 24.

Mounting the saw blade (see figure A)

For changing tools, best place the power tool on the side of the motor housing. Clean the saw blade 22 and all clamping parts. Swing the pendulum protective guard 12 back and hold it firmly.

  • Place the saw blade 22 onto the receiving flange 23. The cutting direction of the teeth (direction of the arrow on the saw blade) and the rotation direction arrow on the protective guard 17 must match.
  • Place the clamping flange 21 and screw in the clamping screw 20 in the direction of rotation. Pay attention to the correct seating and assembly of the receiving flange 23 and the clamping flange 21.
  • Press the spindle lock button 5 and hold it down.
  • Tighten the clamping screw 20 firmly with the hex key 4 in the direction of rotation. The tightening torque should be 6-9 Nm, which corresponds to hand-tightening plus 1/4 turn.

Dust extraction/chip removal

Pull the mains plug from the socket before carrying out any work on the power tool. - Dust from materials such as lead-containing coating, some types of wood, minerals and metal can be harmful to health. Contact or inhalation of dust can cause allergic reactions and/or respiratory diseases of the worker or persons in the vicinity.

Some dust, e.g. from oak or beech wood, is considered carcinogenic, especially in connection with wood treatment additives (chromates, wood preservatives). Material containing asbestos may only be worked on by specialists.

- Use dust extraction as much as possible, suitable for the material. Ensure good ventilation of the workplace. - It is recommended to wear a breathing mask with filter class P2.
