adapter.
– Remove the circular saw with the premounted guide-rail
adapter 27 from the guide rail 28.
– Align the guide rail 28 on the workpiece in such a manner
that the rubber lip lies exactly alongside the cutting edge.

e. g., screw clamps, on the workpiece. Set the circular saw
with the premounted guide-rail adapter 27 on to the guide
rail.

Maintenance and Cleaning

 Before any work on the machine itself, pull the mains
plug.
 For safe and proper working, always keep the machine
and ventilation slots clean.
The retracting blade guard must always be able to move freely
and retract automatically. Therefore, always keep the area
around the retracting blade guard clean. Remove dust and
chips by blowing out with compressed air or with a brush.
Saw blades that are not coated can be protected against cor-
rosion with a thin coat of acid-free oil. Before use, the oil must
be removed again, otherwise the wood will become soiled.
Resin and glue residue on the saw blade produces poor cuts.
Therefore, clean the saw blade immediately after use.
If the machine should fail despite the care taken in manufac-
turing and testing procedures, repair should be carried out by
an after-sales service centre for Bosch power tools.
If the replacement of the supply cord is necessary, this has to
be done by Bosch or an authorized Bosch service agent in or-
der to avoid a safety hazard.
In all correspondence and spare parts order, please always in-
clude the 10-digit article number given on the type plate of
the machine.
