Sawing without slide movement (cutting off) (see figure
P)
– For cuts without slide movement (small workpieces),
loosen the locking screw (32) if it is tightened. Push the
tool arm all the way towards the fence (13) and retighten
the locking screw (32).
– Set the required mitre and/or bevel angle as necessary.
– Press the workpiece firmly against the fences (13) and
(25).
– Firmly clamp the workpiece as appropriate for its dimen-
sions.
– Switch the power tool on.
– Slowly guide the tool arm downwards using the handle
(9).
– Saw through the workpiece applying uniform feed.
– Switch off the power tool and wait until the saw blade has
come to a complete stop.
– Slowly guide the tool arm upwards.
Sawing with slide movement
– For cuts made using the slide device (1) (wide work-
pieces), loosen the locking screw (32) if it is tightened.
– Set the required mitre and/or bevel angle as necessary.
– Press the workpiece firmly against the fences (13) and
(25).
– Firmly clamp the workpiece as appropriate for its dimen-
sions.
– Pull the tool arm away from the fence (13) until the saw
blade is in front of the workpiece.
– Switch the power tool on.
– Slowly guide the tool arm downwards using the handle
(9).
– Now push the tool arm towards the fences (13) and (25)
and saw through the workpiece with uniform feed.
– Switch off the power tool and wait until the saw blade has
come to a complete stop.
– Slowly guide the tool arm upwards.
Adjusting the depth stop (sawing the groove) (see figure
Q)
The depth stop needs to be adjusted if you wish to saw a
groove.
– Swivel the depth stop (30) outwards.
– Swivel the tool arm by the handle (9) into the required
position.
– Turn the adjusting screw (5) until the end of the screw
touches the depth stop (30).
– Slowly guide the tool arm upwards.
Special workpieces
When sawing curved or round workpieces, these must be es-
pecially secured against slipping. At the cutting line, there
should be no gap between the workpiece, fence and saw
table.
If necessary, you will need to manufacture special fixtures.

Checking and Adjusting the Basic Settings
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.
Adjusting the laser
Note: To test the laser function, the power tool must be con-
nected to the power supply.
While adjusting the laser (e.g. when moving the tool
u
arm), never activate the on/off switch. Starting the
power tool accidentally can lead to injuries.
– Bring the power tool into the work position.
– Turn the saw table (17) to the 0° detent (23). The lever
(20) must be felt to engage in the detent.
Checking (see figure R1)
– Draw a straight cutting line on the workpiece.
– Slowly guide the tool arm downwards using the handle
(9).
– Position the workpiece so that the teeth of the saw blade
line up with the cutting line.
– Hold the workpiece in this position and slowly guide the
tool arm back up.
– Clamp the workpiece.
– Turn on the laser beam using the switch (8) without
pressing the lock-off button (7).
The laser beam must be flush with the cutting line on the
workpiece along its entire length, even if the tool arm is
guided downwards.
Setting (see figure R2)
– Turn the set screw (52) with a suitable screwdriver until
the laser beam is parallel to the entire length of the cut-
ting line on the workpiece.
One rotation anticlockwise moves the laser beam from left to
right; one rotation clockwise moves the laser beam from
right to left.
Setting the Standard 0° Bevel Angle
– Bring the power tool into the transport position.
– Turn the saw table (17) to the 0° detent (23). The lever
(20) must be felt to engage in the detent.
Checking (see figure S1)
– Set an angle gauge to 90° and place it on the saw table
(17).
The leg of the angle gauge must be flush with the saw blade
(44) along its entire length.
Setting (see figure S2)
– Loosen the clamping handle (31).
– Loosen the lock nut of the stop screw (39) using a com-
mercially available box-ended or open-ended spanner
(size 10 mm).
– Turn the stop screw as far in or out as needed until the leg
of the angle gauge is flush with the saw blade along its en-
tire length.
