OBJ_BUCH-557-005.book Page 31 Tuesday, July 5, 2011 4:08 PM
All parts must be properly mounted and all conditions fulfilled
that ensure faultless operation.
Damaged protective devices and parts must be immediately
replaced by an authorised service centre.
Mounting Individual Components
– Carefully remove all parts included in the delivery from
their packaging.
– Remove all packaging material from the machine and the
accessories provided.
– For easier working when mounting the supplied product
features, please observe that the machine is in the trans-
port position.
Additionally required tools (not in delivery scope):
– Phillips screwdriver
– Angle gauge
– Box-end or open-end spanner (size 12 mm)
for assembly of the base unit
– Box-end or open-end spanner (size 14 mm)
for the lock nuts of the depth stop
– Box-end or open-end spanner (size 10 mm)
for basic adjustment of the bevel angles (vertical)
Mounting the Saw Table Extension and the Length Stop
(see figure A)
The saw table extension 39 and the length stop 38 can be po-
sitioned left or right from the machine.
– Mount the saw table extension and the length stop to the
requested extension bar 19 as required and tighten the
corresponding wing nut.
Mounting the Extension Bars (see figure A)
For mounting, use the extension-bar fastening kit 40. (2 U-
profiles with screws)
– Tilt the power tool in such a manner that the extension bars
can be affixed to the bottom side of the saw-table casing.
– Hold a U-profile over a casing fin 41 so that the drill holes
of both parts are in alignment.
– Insert an extension bar through the drill holes 18, the U-
profile and the casing fins to the stop.
– Tighten the screw of the U-profile to secure the extension
bar.
– Repeat the work steps for the second extension bar on the
other side of the saw-table casing.
Mounting the Locking Knob (see figure B)
– Screw the locking knob 13 into the corresponding thread-
ed hole below the insert plates 12.
Always tighten the locking knob 13 firmly before saw-
ing. Otherwise the saw blade can become wedged in the
workpiece.
Inserting the Batteries (see figure C)
– Open the battery compartment 36.
– Insert the batteries provided according to the specified po-
larity.
– Close the battery compartment.
Bosch Power Tools
Stationary or Flexible Mounting
To ensure safe handling, the machine must be mounted
on a level and stable surface (e. g., workbench) prior to
using.
Mounting with Base Unit (see figures D1 – D2)
For mounting, use the base-unit fastening kit 43. (24 screws
with nuts for assembly, 4 screws with nuts for fastening of the
machine, 4 washers)
– Screw the base unit 42 together. Tighten the screws firm-
ly.
– Fasten the power tool to the supporting surface of the base
unit. For this, use the mounting holes 16 of the power tool
as well as the slots in the base unit.
Mounting without Base Unit (see figure E)
– Fasten the power tool with suitable screw fasteners to the
working surface. The mounting holes 16 serve for this pur-
pose.

Dust/Chip Extraction

Dusts from materials such as lead-containing coatings, some
wood types, minerals and metal can be harmful to one's
health. Touching or breathing-in the dusts can cause allergic
reactions and/or lead to respiratory infections of the user or
bystanders.
Certain dusts, such as oak or beech dust, are considered as
carcinogenic, especially in connection with wood-treatment
additives (chromate, wood preservative). Materials contain-
ing asbestos may only be worked by specialists.
– Always use dust extraction.
– Provide for good ventilation of the working place.
– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class respirator.
Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the mate-
rials to be worked.
The dust/chip extraction can be blocked by dust, chips or
workpiece fragments.
– Switch the machine off and pull the mains plug from the
socket outlet.
– Wait until the saw blade has come to a complete stop.
– Determine the cause of the blockage and correct it.
Integrated Dust Extraction (see figure F)
– Mount the dust bag 1 onto the sawdust ejector 2.
During sawing, the dust bag must never come into contact
with the movable machine parts.
Always empty the dust bag in good time.
External Dust Extraction
For dust extraction, a vacuum hose (size Ø 36 mm) can also
be connected to the dust ejector 2.
The vacuum cleaner must be suitable for the material being
worked.
When vacuuming dry dust that is especially detrimental to
health or carcinogenic, use a special vacuum cleaner.
