(see figure D)
– Loosen the locking knob 3 a few turns.
– Remove the guide rail 4 and the bridge 8
from the base unit 1.
– Mount the support extensions 6 left and right
to the base unit 1.
– Depending on the workpiece length, mount
the additional supports 7 reversed (see
figure D) into the inner or outer guide of the
support extensions.
Take care that the cutting line in the
notched area is between the additional sup-
ports, to ensure that you do not saw into
the saw station.
Note: When sawing lengthway cuts, the saw sta-
tion is used only as a supporting surface. The
workpiece cannot be clamped. Therefore, hold
it tightly while sawing.

Working Advice

Only use the saw blades recommended by
Bosch (see page 223). When using saw
blades that are too thin, danger is given that
the cut runs out of centre.
The base plate of the jigsaw must always be in
the front position.
The thickness of the material to be cut depends
on the sawing capacity of the respective jigsaw.
For further information, see the operating in-
structions of your jigsaw.
To ensure optimal operational safety, the work-
piece must always be affixed.
