Do not press the spindle lock button (12) while the
u
saw spindle is moving. The power tool may become
damaged if this happens.
– Use the hex key (16) to undo the clamping bolt with
clamping flange (15) in rotational direction ➊.
– Remove the diamond cutting disc (21) and the mounting
flange (13) from the grinding spindle.
Fitting the diamond cutting disc (see figure A)
– Maintain enough distance between the power tool and
the workpiece to prevent any damage.
– Hold the power tool by the handle (11).
– Push the unlocking lever (4) for the base plate (3) down.
The base plate opens.
– Clean the diamond cutting disc (21) and all the clamping
elements to be fitted.
– Insert the mounting flange (13).
– Place the diamond cutting disc (21) on the mounting
flange (13). The rotational direction of the arrow on the
diamond cutting disc must match the rotational direction
of the arrow on the power tool.
– Press and hold the spindle lock button (12).
– Use the hex key (16) to tighten the clamping bolt with
clamping flange (15) in rotational direction ➋. The tight-
ening torque should be 6–9 Nm, which corresponds to
hand-tight plus ¼ turn.
– Close the base plate (3) again. You will hear it click into
place.
Dust/chip extraction
The dust from materials such as lead paint, some types of
wood, minerals and metal can be harmful to human health.
Touching or breathing in this dust can trigger allergic reac-
tions and/or cause respiratory illnesses in the user or in
people in the near vicinity.
Certain dusts, such as oak or beech dust, are classified as
carcinogenic, especially in conjunction with wood treatment
additives (chromate, wood preservative). Materials contain-
ing asbestos may only be machined by specialists.
– Use a dust extraction system that is suitable for the ma-
terial wherever possible.
– Provide good ventilation at the workplace.
– It is advisable to wear a P2 filter class breathing mask.
The regulations on the material being machined that apply in
the country of use must be observed.
Avoid dust accumulation at the workplace. Dust can
u
easily ignite.
External dust extraction (see figure E)
Push the dust extraction adapter (9) into the chip ejector
(20) and turn the dust extraction adapter (9) in the direction
of the arrow until you feel it click into place.
Connect a dust extraction hose (17) (accessory) to the dust
extraction adapter (9). Connect the dust extraction hose
(17) to a dust extractor (accessory). You will find an over-
view of how to connect various dust extractors at the end of
these operating instructions.
Bosch Power Tools
The power tool can be directly connected to the socket of a
Bosch all-purpose dust extractor with remote starter. This
dust extractor is started up automatically when the power
tool is switched on.
The dust extractor must be suitable for the material being
worked.
When extracting dry dust that is especially detrimental to
health or carcinogenic, use a special dust extractor designed
for this purpose.
Operation
Pull the plug out of the socket before carrying out any
u
work on the power tool.
Operating modes
Setting the cutting depth (see figure B)
Adapt the cutting depth to the thickness of the work-
u
piece. A space of less than the height of one full tooth
should be visible under the workpiece.
Undo the screw for setting the cutting depth (8) in rotational
direction ➊.
Use the slider (5) to set the required cutting depth (material
thickness + tooth height of the application tool) on the cut-
ting depth scale ➋.
Tighten the screw for setting the cutting depth (8) in rota-
tional direction ❸.
Start-up
Pay attention to the mains voltage. The voltage of the
u
power source must match the voltage specified on the
rating plate of the power tool. Power tools marked
with 230 V can also be operated with 220 V.
Products that are only sold in AUS and NZ: Use a resid-
u
ual current device (RCD) with a nominal residual current
of 30 mA or less.
Switching on/off (see figure C)
To start the power tool, first press the lock-off switch (1),
then press and hold the on/off switch (2).
Pressing the lock-off switch (1) also unlocks the plunge func-
tion and allows the power tool to be pushed down. This
causes the application tool to plunge into the workpiece.
Raising the power tool causes it to spring back into the start-
ing position and the plunge function locks again.
To switch off the power tool, release the on/off switch (2).
Note: For safety reasons, the on/off switch (2) cannot be
locked; it must remain pressed during the entire operation.
Practical advice
Pull the plug out of the socket before carrying out any
u
work on the power tool.
The width of cut varies depending on the saw blade used.
Protect saw blades against shock and impact.
Guide the power tool evenly, pushing it gently in the cutting
direction. Applying too much pressure to the power tool
