 If the workpiece or blade becomes jammed, turn the
mitre saw off. Wait for all moving parts to stop and dis-
connect the plug from the power source and/or remove
the battery pack. Then work to free the jammed mate-
rial. Continued sawing with a jammed workpiece could
cause loss of control or damage to the mitre saw.
 After finishing the cut, release the switch, hold the saw
head down and wait for the blade to stop before remov-
ing the cut-off piece. Reaching with your hand near the
coasting blade is dangerous.
 Hold the handle firmly when making an incomplete cut
or when releasing the switch before the saw head is
completely in the down position. The braking action of
the saw may cause the saw head to be suddenly pulled
downward, causing a risk of injury.
 Keep your workplace clean. Blends of materials are par-
ticularly dangerous. Dust from light alloys can burn or ex-
plode.
 Do not use dull, cracked, bent or damaged saw blades.
Unsharpened or improperly set saw blades produce nar-
row kerf causing excessive friction, blade binding and kick-
back.
 Do not use high speed steel (HSS) saw blades. Such saw
blades can easily break.
 Always use blades with correct size and shape (dia-
mond versus round) of arbour holes. Blades that do not
match the mounting hardware of the saw will run eccentri-
cally, causing loss of control.
 Never remove cutting remainders, wood chips, etc.
from the sawing area while the machine is running. Al-
ways guide the tool arm back to the neutral position first
and then switch the machine off.
 Do not touch the saw blade after working before it has
cooled. The saw blade becomes very hot while working.
 Do not replace the installed laser or LED with another
type. Lasers or LEDs which are not suitable for this power
tool could pose dangers to persons. Repair or replacement
must be performed by an authorised after-sales service
centre in order to prevent safety risks.
 Never make warning signs on the machine unrecognis-
able.
 The power tool is provided with a laser warning label
(marked with number 41 in the representation of the
power tool on the graphics page).
 Do not direct the laser beam at persons or animals and
do not stare into the laser beam yourself. This power
tool produces laser class 1M laser radiation according to
EN 60825-1. Looking or viewing directly into the laser
beam – especially with optical instruments such as binoc-
ulars etc. – can damage the eye.
Bosch Power Tools
 If laser radiation strikes your eye, you must deliberate-
ly close your eyes and immediately turn your head
away from the beam.
 Do not use any optical instruments such as binoculars to
view the radiation source. Doing so can damage your eye.
 Do not direct the laser beam at persons who are looking
through binoculars or similar instruments. Doing so can
damage their eye.
 Do not make any modifications to the laser equipment.
The setting options described in these operating instruc-
tions can be used safely.
 Products sold in GB only: Your product is fitted with a
BS 1363/A approved electric plug with internal fuse
(ASTA approved to BS 1362).
If the plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should
be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place by an
authorised customer service agent. The replacement plug
should have the same fuse rating as the original plug.
The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible
shock hazard and should never be inserted into a mains
socket elsewhere.
Products sold in AUS and NZ only: Use a residual current
device (RCD) with a rated residual current of 30 mA or
less.
