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.
Splinter Guard (see figure F)
The splinter guard 20 can prevent fraying of the
surface while sawing wood. The splinter guard
can only be used with certain saw blade types,
and only at a cutting angle of 0°. When sawing
with the splinter guard, the base plate 7 may not
be offset to the rear for sawing close to edges.
Press the splinter guard 20 from the bottom into
the base plate 7.
Sliding Shoe (see figure G)
The plastic guide plate 6 of base plate 7 reduces
sensitive surfaces from being scratched up.
When cutting metal, use the steel sliding shoe
21.
To mount the steel sliding shoe 21, insert it at
the front of the base plate 7, push it up at the
rear and allow it to engage.
Operation
Operating Modes
Before any work on the machine itself (e. g.
maintenance, tool change, etc.) as well as
during transport and storage, remove the
battery from the power tool. There is danger
of injury when unintentionally actuating the
On/Off switch.
Orbital Action Settings
The four orbital action settings allow for optimal
adaptation of cutting speed, cutting capacity
and cutting pattern to the material being sawed.
The orbital action can be adjusted with the ad-
justing lever 8, even during operation.
No orbital action
Small orbital action
Medium orbital action
Large orbital action
Bosch Power Tools
The optimal orbital action setting for the respec-
tive application can be determined through
practical testing. The following recommenda-
tions apply:
– Select a lower orbital action setting (or
switch it off) for a finer and cleaner cutting
edge.
– For thin materials such as sheet metal,
switch the orbital action off.
– For hard materials such as steel, work with
low orbital action.
– For soft materials and when sawing in the di-
rection of the grain, work with maximum or-
bital action.
Adjusting the Cutting Angle (see figure H)
The base plate 7 can be swivelled by 45° to the
left or right for mitre cuts.
– Remove the vacuum connection 18.
– Loosen screw 22 with Allen key 5 and slide
the base plate 7 in toward the battery 3 to
the stop.
– For adjustment of precise mitre angles, the
base plate has adjustment notches on the
left and right at 0° and 45°. Swivel the base
plate 7 to the desired position according to
the scale 23. Other mitre angles can be ad-
justed using a protractor.
– Afterwards, push the base plate 7 to the stop
in the direction of the saw blade 11.
– Tighten the screw 22 again.
The vacuum connection 18 and the splinter
guard 20 cannot be used for bevel cuts.
Offsetting the Base Plate (see figure H)
For sawing close to edges, the base plate 7 can
be offset to the rear.
– Loosen screw 22 with Allen key 5 and slide
the base plate 7 in toward the battery 3 to
the stop.
– Tighten the screw 22 again.
When sawing with the base plate 7 offset, the
parallel guide with circle cutter 25 as well as the
splinter guard 20 may not be used.
