The specifications apply to a rated voltage [U] of 230 V. These spe-
cifications may vary at different voltages and in country-specific mod-
els.
Values can vary depending upon the product and are subject to ap-

Noise/Vibration Information
Noise emission values determined according to
EN 62841-2-17.
Typically the A-weighted noise level of the power tool are:
86 dB(A); sound power level 94 dB(A). Uncertainty
K = 3 dB.
Wear hearing protection!
Vibration total values a

determined according to EN 62841-2-17: a
2
K = 1.5 m/s
.
The vibration level and noise emission value given in these
instructions have been measured in accordance with a
standardised measuring procedure and may be used to com-
pare power tools. They may also be used for a preliminary
estimation of vibration and noise emissions.
The stated vibration level and noise emission value repres-
ent the main applications of the power tool. However, if the
power tool is used for other applications, with different ac-
cessories or is poorly maintained, the vibration level and
noise emission value may differ. This may significantly in-
crease the vibration and noise emissions over the total work-
ing period.
To estimate vibration and noise emissions accurately, the
times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but
not actually being used should also be taken into account.
This may significantly reduce vibration and noise emissions
over the total working period.

Changing the Collet (see figure B)
/ II
Depending on the router bit used, you may have to change
the cap nut with the collet (8) before fitting the router bit.
If the right collet for your router bit is already fitted, please
follow the work steps in the following section.
The collet (16) must sit in the cap nut with a small amount of
play. The cap nut (8) must be easy to fit. If the cap nut or col-
let is damaged, replace it immediately.
Place the open-ended spanner (18) on the tool holder (17)
(see figure C1).
Unscrew the cap nut (8) anticlockwise using the open-ended
spanner (19).
If required, clean all the parts you want to fit with a soft
brush or by blowing them clean with compressed air before
assembling them.
Place the new cap nut on the tool holder (17).

Fitting the router bit (see figure C1 – C2)
Router bits are available in a wide variety of designs and
qualities depending on the intended application.
Router bits made of high-performance high-speed steel
(HSS) are suited to machining soft materials such as soft-
wood and plastic.
Router bits with carbide tips (HM) are especially suitable
for hard and abrasive materials such as hardwood and alu-
minium.
Original router bits from the extensive range of Bosch ac-
cessories are available from your specialist dealer.
Only use undamaged and clean router bits.
Pull the plug out of the socket before carrying out any
work on the power tool.
Wearing protective gloves while fitting and changing
router bits is recommended.
Do not, under any circumstances, tighten the collet
with the tightening nut until a router bit has been fit-
ted. The collet may otherwise become damaged.
