Positioning of
workpiece
– Lying flat on the
saw table
Furthermore, you can cut with or without the slide move-
ment depending on the width of the moulding.
Always check the set mitre and/or bevel angle first by mak-
ing trial cuts in scrap wood.
Transport (see figure S)
Before transporting the power tool, the following steps must
be carried out:
– Bring the power tool into the transport position.
– Insert the flexible saw table extensions (48) into the
openings (36) of the power tool.
– Remove all accessories that cannot be securely fitted to
the power tool.
If possible, transport unused saw blades in an enclosed
container.
– Carry the power tool by the transport handle (22).
Only use the transport devices to transport the power
u
tool and never the protective devices.

Maintenance and servicing

Maintenance and cleaning
Pull the plug out of the socket before carrying out any
u
work on the power tool.
To ensure safe and efficient operation, always keep
u
the power tool and the ventilation slots clean.
In order to avoid safety hazards, if the power supply cord
needs to be replaced, this must be done by Bosch or by a
customer service centre that is authorised to repair Bosch
power tools.
The retracting blade guard must always be able to move
freely and retract automatically. It is therefore important to
keep the area around the retracting blade guard clean at all
times.
Always remove dust and chips after working by blowing out
with compressed air or using a brush.
Clean the guide roller (6) regularly.
