Switch Activation; Detent Override - Bosch 4212L Operating/Safety Instructions Manual

Switch Activation

For safety, the switch lever is designed to prevent
accidental starts. To operate safety switch, press the
switch "Lock-OFF" button with either thumb to disen-
gage the lock, then pull the power switch lever and
release the switch "Lock-OFF" release button. When
the power switch lever is released, the switch "Lock-
OFF" button will engage the safety switch automati-
cally, and the lever will no longer operate until either
"Lock-Off" button is pressed again.
NOTE: Switch lever can accommodate a padlock
with a long shackle of up to 1/4" in diameter (not
supplied) to prevent unauthorized use.
Miter Detent Override
The miter detent override feature allows the detent
action to be locked out, allowing for micro adjust-
ments at any miter angle. When the desired miter
angle is to close to a standard mitering angle that has
a detent slot, this feature prevents the wedge on the
miter arm from slipping into the detent slot on the
base.

2. Push the detent override clip forward and latch in
place over edge. Release miter detent lever.
3. Move miter arm to any position on the miter scale.
4. Lock the miter lock knob to retain miter position.
To Disengage:
Loosen miter lock knob and lift the miter detent lever
to release the detent override clip. The clip should
automatically disengage.
