Working Advice

Pull the plug out of the socket before carrying out any
u
work on the power tool.
Switch the power tool off immediately if the saw blade
u
becomes blocked.
Base plate with sliding rollers
You can use the power tool with or without the base
plate (4).
The base plate is equipped with sliding rollers to enable the
saw to be moved easily and make cuts at right angles.
If you want to cut the material to any shape or make small
cutouts, remove the base plate.
Cutting foam
Saw with moderate feed when making precise cuts, espe-
cially in soft foams and similar materials. Do not press down
too hard on the material or stretch it excessively while work-
ing.
To make small cutouts, remove the base plate (4). Use a
knife or a pair of scissors to make a hole in the material,
place the saw blade guide (2) in the hole and saw the cutout.
To make large cutouts, make the hole large enough to ac-
commodate the saw blade guide (2) with the base plate (4)
attached. Ensure that there are no obstacles in the surface
underneath. Saw along the cutout line, applying moderate
pressure.

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.
Clean the saw blade guide (2) and the saw blades (3) at reg-
ular intervals (approx. after every 8 hours of operation).
You will need to remove the saw blades (3) from the power
tool to do this. It is best to clean the saw blades with white
spirit.
Use a scraper to clean the saw blade guide (2) if necessary.
Lightly oil the saw blade guide before fitting new or re-
sharpened saw blades.
