Clamping the workpiece (see figure H)
To ensure maximum safety while working, the workpiece
must always be firmly clamped.
Do not saw workpieces that are too small to clamp firmly.
– Press the workpiece firmly against the fences (1) and (2).
– Insert the supplied screw clamp (38) into one of the cor-
responding holes (29).
– Loosen the wing bolt and adjust the screw clamp to the
workpiece. Tighten the wing bolt again.
– Tighten the threaded rod (50) to fix the workpiece in
place.
Releasing the workpiece
– To loosen the screw clamp, turn the threaded rod (50)
anticlockwise.
Adjusting mitre angles
To ensure precise cuts, the basic settings of the power tool
must be checked and adjusted as necessary after intensive
use.
Experience and suitable special tools are required for this.
A Bosch after-sales service point will handle this work
quickly and reliably.
Note for adjusting mitre angles > 45°:
Before adjusting the mitre angle, pull the saw table
extension (27) and the adjustable fence (2) all the way out.
Setting Standard Mitre Angles (see figure I1)
For quick and precise setting of commonly used mitre
angles, detents (25) are provided on the saw table:
Leftward
0°
45°; 31.6°; 22.5°; 15°
– Loosen the locking knob (21) if it is tightened.
– Pull the lever (22) and rotate the saw table (18) left or
right to the required detent.
– Release the lever again. The lever must be felt to engage
in the detent.
– Retighten the locking knob (21).
Setting Any Mitre Angle (see figure I2)
The mitre angle can be set between 52° (left side) and 60°
(right side).
– Loosen the locking knob (21) if it is tightened.
– Pull the lever (22) and at the same time press the locking
clamp (20) until this clicks into the slot provided for it.
This means the saw table can now move freely.
– Turn the saw table (18) left or right by the locking knob
until the angle indicator (24) shows the required mitre
angle.
– Retighten the locking knob (21).
– To loosen the lever (22) again (for setting standard mitre
angles), pull the lever upwards.
The locking clamp (20) springs back into its original posi-
tion and the lever (22) can click back into the detents
(25).
Bosch Power Tools
Adjusting bevel angles
To ensure precise cuts, the basic settings of the power tool
must be checked and adjusted as necessary after intensive
use.
Experience and suitable special tools are required for this.
A Bosch after-sales service point will handle this work
quickly and reliably.
The bevel angle can be set between 47° (left side) and 47°
(right side).
For quick and precise setting of frequently used bevel
angles, stops have been provided for the angles 0°, 47°, 45°,
33.9° and 22.5°.
u
Setting the left bevel angle range (see figure J1)
– Pull the left-hand adjustable fence (2) all the way out.
– Loosen the clamping lever (7).
– Use the handle (12) to swivel the tool arm to the left until
– Re-tighten the clamping lever (7).
Setting the complete bevel angle range (see figure J2)
– Swing the stop (42) all the way out.
Rightward
– Pull the right-hand adjustable fence (2) all the way out or
15°; 22.5°; 31.6°; 45°; 60°
– Loosen the clamping lever (7).
– Swing the tool arm left or right by the handle (12) until
– Re-tighten the clamping lever (7).
Setting standard bevel angles (see figure J3)
– Loosen the clamping lever (7).
– Standard 0° bevel angles:
– Re-tighten the clamping lever (7).
Start-up
u
For bevel cuts when using the SDS bolt (30), before
sawing, first make sure that the SDS bolt cannot come
into contact with the surface of the workpiece at any
time by making a suitable adjustment to the depth
stop (40). This prevents damage to the SDS bolt and/or
the workpiece.
the angle indicator (41) shows the required bevel angle.
This enables you to use the complete mitre angle range
(left and right).
remove it completely.
If you want to use the entire bevel angle range, you also
have to pull the left-hand adjustable fence (2) all the way
out or remove it completely.
the angle indicator (41)/(5) shows the required bevel
angle.
Swing the tool arm by the handle (12) slightly to the left
and swing the stop (42) all the way in.
Standard 47°, 45°, 33.9° and 22.5° bevel angles:
Turn the stop until the required standard bevel angle en-
gages at the arrow mark.
