Checking and Adjusting the Basic
Adjustment
Before any work on the machine itself, pull
the mains plug.
To ensure precise cuts, the basic adjustment of
the machine must be checked and adjusted as
necessary after intensive use.
A certain level of experience and appropriate
specialty tools are required for this.
A Bosch after-sales service station will handle
this maintenance task quickly and reliably.
Setting the Standard Bevel Angle 0°
(Vertical)
– Bring the power tool into the working posi-
tion.
– Turn the saw table 17 to the 0° detent 16.
The lever 14 must be felt to engage in the de-
tent.
Checking: (see figure R1)
– Adjust an angle gauge to 90° and position it
on the saw table 17.
The leg of the angle gauge must be flush with
the saw blade 7 over the complete length.
Adjusting: (see figure R2)
– Loosen the clamping lever 32.
– Loosen the locking nut of the stop bolt 24
with the open-ended spanner 35 (12 mm)
provided.
– Screw the stop screw in or out until the leg
of the angle gauge is flush with the saw blade
over the complete length.
– Retighten the clamping lever 32 again.
– Afterwards, retighten the lock nut of the stop
screw 24 again.
When the angle indicator 48 is not in line with
the 0° mark of scale 54 after adjusting, loosen
screw 53 with the provided Phillips screwdriver
30 and align the angle indicator alongside the 0°
mark.

The lever 14 must be felt to engage in the de-
tent.
– Loosen the clamping lever 32 and tilt the tool
arm leftward to the stop (45°) by the handle

– Afterwards, retighten the lock nut of the stop
screw 23 again.
In case the angle indicator 48 is not in a line with
the 45° mark of the scale 54, firstly check the 0°
setting for the bevel angle and the angle indica-
tor again. Then repeat the adjustment of the 45°
bevel angle.
Aligning the Fence
