– Insert the fastening screws through the lateral holes in the
parallel guide 10.
The heads of the screws serve as a guide for the auxiliary
parallel guide.
– Move the auxiliary parallel guide 37 over the heads of the
fastening screws.
– Mount the washers to the fastening screws and tighten
them with the wing nuts .
Mounting the Angle Stop (see figures E1 – E2)
– Insert the guide rail 39 of the angle stop 3 into one of the
guide grooves 5 of the saw table intended for this purpose.
For improved placement of long workpieces, the angle stop
can be extended with profile rail 28.
– If required, mount the profile rail to the angle stop with fas-
tening kit 40.
Dust/Chip Extraction
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 contain-
ing asbestos may only be worked by specialists.
– Always use dust extraction.
– 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 mate-
rials to be worked.
The dust/chip extraction can be blocked by dust, chips or
workpiece fragments.
– Switch the machine off and pull the mains plug from the
socket outlet.
– Wait until the saw blade has come to a complete stop.
– Determine the cause of the blockage and correct it.
Prevent dust accumulation at the workplace. Dusts can
easily ignite.
To avoid the danger of fire when sawing aluminium,
empty the sawdust ejector and do not work with
dust/chip extraction.
Emptying the Sawdust Ejector (see figure F)
The sawdust ejector 31 can be emptied for removal of work-
piece fragments and large chips.
– Switch the machine off and pull the mains plug from the
socket outlet.
– Wait until the saw blade has come to a complete stop.
– Loosen fastening screw 41 with Allen key 21.
– Pull out sawdust ejector 31 and remove workpiece frag-
ments and chips.
– Mount the sawdust ejector to the power tool again.
External Dust Extraction (see figure G)
To connect a vacuum cleaner to the sawdust ejector 31, use
the supplied extraction adapter 32.

– Firmly attach the extraction adapter 32 and the vacuum
hose.
– Additionally, a dust extraction system can be connected
with the Y-adapter (accessory) to vacuum connection 7, to
increase the extraction performance.
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.
Stationary or Flexible Mounting
To ensure safe handling, the machine must be mounted
on a level and stable surface (e. g., workbench) prior to
using.
Mounting to a Working Surface (see figure H)
– Fasten the power tool with suitable screw fasteners to the
working surface. The mounting holes 12 serve for this pur-
pose.
Mounting to a Bosch Saw Stand (see figure I)
With the height-adjustable legs, Bosch saw stands (e. g.
GTA 60 W, GTA 600) provide firm support for the power tool
on any surface.
Read all safety warnings and instructions included with
the worktable. Failure of observing safety warnings and
instructions can lead to electrical shock, fire and/or cause
serious injuries.
Assemble the worktable properly before mounting the
power tool. Perfect assembly is important in order to pre-
vent the risk of collapsing.
– Mount the power tool in transport position on the saw
stand.
Changing the Saw Blade (see figures J1
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.
Use only saw blades whose maximum permitted speed is
higher than the no-load speed of the power tool.
Use only saw blades that correspond with the characteristic
data given in these operation instructions and that are tested
and marked in accordance with EN 847-1.
Use only saw blades recommended by the tool manufacturer,
and suitable for sawing the materials to be cut.
Removing the Saw Blade
– Using a screwdriver, raise the insert plate 24 at the front
and remove it from the tool basin.
– Turn crank 19 clockwise to the stop, so that the saw blade
26 is in the highest possible position above the saw table.
– Tilt the protection guard 6.x toward the rear to the stop.
– Turn the clamping nut 42 with the ring spanner 22
(23 mm) and at the same time, pull the spindle lock lever
43 until it engages.
– Keep the spindle lock lever pulled and unscrew the clamp-
ing nut turning in anticlockwise direction.
– Remove the clamping flange 44.
