– Swivel the glide arm to the right stop (45°) by the handle
(1).
Checking (see figure W1)
– Set an angle gauge to 135° and place it on the saw table
(37).
The leg of the angle gauge must be flush with the saw blade
(39) along its entire length.
Setting (see figure W2)
– Tighten or loosen the set screw (70) using an open-ended
spanner (8 mm) until the leg of the angle gauge is flush
with the saw blade along its entire length.
– Retighten the clamping handle (13).
If the angle indicators (32) and (20) are not in line with the
45° marks on the scale (31) following adjustment, first
check the 0° setting for the bevel angle and the angle indicat-
ors once more. Then repeat the adjustment of the 45° bevel
angle.
Aligning the scale for mitre angles
– Bring the power tool into the work position.
– Turn the saw table (37) to the 0° detent (14). The lever
(12) must be felt to engage in the detent.
Checking (see figure X1)
– Set an angle gauge to 90° and position it between the
fence (6) and the saw blade (39) on the saw table (37).
The leg of the angle gauge must be flush with the saw blade
(39) along its entire length.
Setting (see figure X2)
– Loosen all four set screws (71) using the hex key (4 mm)
(16) and turn the saw table (37) together with the scale
(36) until the leg of the angle gauge is flush with the saw
blade along its entire length.
– Re-tighten the screws again.
If the angle indicator (57) is not aligned with the 0° mark on
the scale (36) following adjustment, loosen the screw (72)
using a cross-headed screwdriver and align the angle indic-
ator along the 0° mark.
Adjusting the Clamping Force of the Clamping Handle
(13) (see figure Y)
The clamping force of the clamping handle (13) can be ad-
justed.
Checking
– The clamping force of the clamping handle must hold the
glide arm securely in place at any bevel angle.
Setting
– Loosen the clamping handle (13).
– Use a socket spanner (17 mm) to turn the set screw (73)
anticlockwise to reduce the clamping force or clockwise
to increase the clamping force.
– Set a bevel angle, retighten the clamping handle (13) and
check whether the required clamping force has been
reached.
Transport (see figure Z)
Before transporting the power tool, the following steps must
be carried out:
Bosch Power Tools
– Slide the glide arm (27) all the way back and secure it in
this position.
– Make sure that the depth stop (29) is pressed all the way
in and that the adjusting screw (28) fits through the re-
cess without touching the depth stop when moving the
glide arm.
– Guide the glide arm downwards until you can press the
transport safety lock (30) all the way in
– Slide the saw table extensions (7) all the way in.
– Set the bevel angle to 0° and tighten the clamping
handle (13).
– Turn the saw table (37) as far as possible to the left and
tighten the locking knob (11).
– Wind up the mains cable and tie it together with the hook-
and-loop strap (74).
– Remove all accessories that cannot be securely fitted to
the power tool.
– If possible, transport unused saw blades in an enclosed
container.
– For transport, hold the power tool by the recessed
handles (15) on either side of the saw table.
When transporting the power tool, only use the trans-
u
port fixtures. Never carry the power tool by the pro-
tective devices, the glide arm or the handle.
Maintenance and Service
Maintenance and cleaning
Pull the plug out of the socket before carrying out any
u
work on the power tool.
To ensure safe and efficient operation, always keep
u
the power tool and the ventilation slots clean.
In order to avoid safety hazards, if the power supply cord
needs to be replaced, this must be done by Bosch or by an
after-sales service centre that is authorised to repair Bosch
power tools.
The retracting blade guard must always be able to move
freely and retract automatically. It is therefore important to
keep the area around the retracting blade guard clean at all
times.
Always remove dust and chips after working by blowing out
with compressed air or using a brush.
– Clean the guide roller (19) and the glide arm (27) regu-
larly.
