18 | English General Power Tool Safety Warnings EXTEMA Re2dall safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in elec- tric 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 (cordiess) power tool.

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Clut- tered 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. <) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distrac- tions can cause you to lose control.

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, ral tors, 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. 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.

€) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for out- door use. Use of a cord suitable for out- door use reduces the risk of electric shock. f) If operating a power tool in a damp loca- tion is unavoidable, use a residual cur- rent device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock. 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 influ- ence of drugs, alcohol or medication. À moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious person- al injury. b) Use personal protective equipment. Al- ways wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protec- tion 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 bat- tery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your fin- ger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites acci- dents. d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench be- fore turning the power tool on. À wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal inju-

€) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unex- pected situations. f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose cloth- ing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts. 1 609 929 N78 | (7.2.08) Bosch Power Tools le.

Lis 20 | English > Causes and operator prevention of kick- back: — 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. — Ifthe blade becomes twisted or mis- aligned 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 precau- tions as given below. Maintain a firm grip with both hands on the saw and position your arms to resist kick- back 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 con- trolled 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 un- tilthe blade comes to a complete stop. Nev- er attempt to remove the saw from the work or pull the saw backward while the blade is in motion or kickback may oceur. 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 ma- terial. 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. Sup- ports 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. Un- sharpened or improperly set blades produce narrow kerf causing excessive friction, blade binding and kickback. > Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking le- vers must be tight and secure before mak- ing cut. If blade adjustment shifts while cut- ting, it may cause binding and kickback. Use extra caution when making a “plunge cut” into existing walls or other blind areas. The protruding blade may cut objects that can cause kickback. Check lower guard for proper closing be- fore 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 acci- dentally 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 slug- gishly due to damaged parts, gummy depos- its, or a build-up of debris. Lower guard should be retracted manually only for special cuts such as “plunge cuts” and “compound cuts”. Raise lower guard by retracting handle and as soon as blade en- ters the material, the lower guard must be released. For all other sawing, the lower guard should operate automatically. Always observe that the lower guard is cov- ering 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. Use the appropriate riving knife for the blade being used. For the riving knife to work, it must be thicker than the body of the blade but thinner than the tooth set of the blade. 1 609 929 N78 | (7.2.08) Bosch Power Tools

The vibration emission level given in this infor- mation 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 repre- sents 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 signifi- cantly increase the exposure level over the total working period. An estimation of the level of exposure to vibra- tion should also take into account the times when the tool is switched off or when it is run- ning but not actually doing the job. This may sig- nificantly reduce the exposure level over the to- tal 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.

24 | English — With the Allen key 3, tighten the clamping bolt 18 turning in rotation direction @. The tightening torque is between 6-9 Nm, which corresponds to hand tight plus #4 turn. Adjusting the Riving Knife (see figure B) > Before any work on the machine itself, pull the mains plug. Always work with the riving knife, except when carrying out plunge cuts. The riving knife prevents jamming of the saw blade while sawing. Adjustment is carried out at maximum cutting depth, see Section “Adjusting the Cutting Depth”. Loosen screw 24, adjust the riving knife 12 to the measure shown in the figure and tighten screw 24 with a tightening torque between 3.5-5 Nm.

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 ones health. Touch- ing or breathing-in the dusts can cause aller- gic reactions and/or lead to respiratory infec- tions 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. — Use dust extraction whenever possible. — Provide for good ventilation of the work- ing place. —_itis recommended to wear a P2 filter- class respirator.

Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the materials to be worked. External Dust Extraction Mount the vacuum hose 29 (accessory) on to the saw dust ejector 17. Connect the vacuum hose 29 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 re- ceptacle of a Bosch all-purpose vacuum cleaner with remote starting control. The vacuum clean- er starts automatically when the machine is switched on. The vacuum cleaner must be suitable for the ma- terial being worked. When vacuuming dry dust that is especially det- rimental to health or carcinogenic, use a special vacuum cleaner. Integrated Dust Extraction with Dust Bag For smaller jobs, a dust bag (accessory) can be mounted. Insert the dust bag sleeve firmly into the saw dust ejector 17. Empty the dust bag at regular intervals to maintain optimum dust col- lection. 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 work- piece. Loosen wing bolt 14. For a smaller cutting depth, pull the saw away from the base plate 13; for a larger cutting depth, push the saw toward the base plate 13. Adjust the desired cutting depth at the cutting-depth scale. Tighten wing bolt 14 again. Adjusting the Cutting Angle Loosen wing bolt 6. Tilt the saw sidewards.

Lis Note: For bevel cuts, the cutting depth is small- er than the setting indicated on the cutting- depth scale 15. Cutting Marks The 0° cutting mark (9) indicates the position of the saw blade for right-angled cuts. The 45° cut- ting mark (8) indicates the position of the saw blade for 45° cuts. 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 230 V can also be operated with 220 V. Switching On and Off To start the machine, first push the lock-off but- ton for the On/Off switch 2 and then press the On/Off switch 1 and keep it pressed. To switch off the machine, release the On/Off switch 1. Note: For safety reasons, the On/Off switch 1 cannot be locked: it must remain pressed during the entire operation. Working Advice Protect saw blades against impact and shock. Guide the machine evenly and with light feed in the cutting direction. Excessive feed significant- ly reduces the service life of the saw blade and can cause damage to the power tool. English | 25 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 extrac- tion. Sawing with Parallel Guide (see figure D) The parallel guide 10 enables exact cuts along à workpiece edge and cutting strips of the same dimension. Loosen wing bolt 7 and slide the scale of the parallel guide 10 through the guide in the base plate 13. Adjust the desired cutting width as the scale setting at the respective cutting mark 9 or 8; see Section “Cutting Marks”. Tighten wing boit 7 again. Sawing with Auxiliary Guide (see figure E) For sawing large workpieces or straight edges, a board or strip can 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 (see figure G) The guide rail 27 is used to carry out straight cuts. The adhesive coating prevents the guide rail from slipping and protects the surface of the workpiece. The coating of the guide rail allows the circular saw to glide easily. The rubber lip on the guide rail acts as a splinter guard that prevents fraying or tearing out of the surface when sawing wooden materials. For this, the teeth of the saw blade must face direct- ly against the rubber lip. The guide rail 27 must not extend beyond the face side of the workpiece where the cut is to be started.

Lis 26 | English The guide-rail adapter 26 is required for working with the guide rail 27. The guide-rail adapter 26 is mounted in the same manner as the parallel guide 10. The following work steps are required for exact cuts using the guide rail 27: — Place the guide rail 27 on to the workpiece projecting lightly over the side. Pay attention that the side with the rubber lip faces to the workpiece.

— Set the circular saw with the premounted guide-rail adapter 26 on to the guide rail 27. — Adjust the desired cutting depth and the bev- el angle. Observe the marks on the guide-rail adapter 26 for preadjustment of the various bevel angles: see figure F. — Align the circular saw with guide-rail adapter in such à manner that the teeth of the saw blade 21 face against the rubber lip. The po- sition of the saw blade 21 depends on the se- lected cutting angle. Do not saw into the guide rail.

0° 1-45 —_ Tighten wing bolt 7 to lock the position ofthe guide-rail adapter. — Remove the circular saw with the premount- ed guide-rail adapter 26 from the guide rail

— Align the guide rail 27 on the workpiece in such à manner that the rubber lip lies exactly alongside the cutting edge. —_ Fasten the guide rail 27 with suitable clamp- ing devices, e. g., screw clamps, on the work- piece. Set the circular saw with the pre- mounted guide-rail adapter 26 on to the guide rail. — Switch the machine on and guide it in the cutting direction applying moderate and steady feed. Two guide rails can be connected to one with use of the connection piece 28. Clamping is car- ried out with the four screws located in the con- nection piece. tenance and Ser 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. There- fore, 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 protect- ed 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 produc- es poor cuts. Therefore, clean the saw blade im- mediately after use. Ifthe machine should fail despite the care taken in manufacturing and testing procedures, repair should be carried out by an after-sales service centre for Bosch power tools. In all correspondence and spare parts order, please always include the 10-digit article number given on the type plate of the machine. 1 609 929 N78 | (7.2.08) Bosch Power Tools
