Routing Circular Arc Profiles (see figures I–K)
Turn the parallel guide 31 around so that the facing
surface of the parallel guide faces upward.
Slide the parallel guide 31 with the guide rods 30 into
the base plate 6 and tighten it as required with the
wing bolts 4.
Fasten the centring pin 32 with the wing bolt 33
through the hole in the parallel guide 31.
Pierce the centring pin 32 into the marked centre of
the arc profile and carry out the routing process apply-
ing uniform feed.
Routing with the Curve Guide (see figures L–M)
Slide the parallel guide 31 with the guide rods 30 into
the base plate 6 and tighten it as required with the
wing bolts 4.
Fasten the curve guide 34 with the guide roller
mounted through the hole on the parallel guide 31.
Guide the power tool with light lateral pressure along-
side the workpiece edge.
Routing with the Router Compass
(see figure N)
The router compass/guide-rail adapter 35 can be
used for circular routing jobs. Mount the router com-
pass as shown in the figure.
Screw the centring screw 40 into the thread on the
router compass. Insert the point of the centring screw
into the centre of the circular arc to be routed, paying
attention that point of the screw engages into the
workpiece surface.
Coarsely adjust the required radius by moving the
router compass and tighten the wing bolts 37 and 38.
The length can be fine adjusted with the fine-adjust-
ment knob 39 after loosening the wing bolt 38. One
revolution corresponds with a setting range of
2.0 mm. One graduation mark on the fine-adjustment
knob 39 changes the setting range by 0.1 mm.
Guide the switched on power tool over the workpiece
with the right handle 2 and the router compass
handle 36.
Routing with Guide Rail (see figure O)
Straight routing cuts can be carried out with help of
the guide rail 41.
The base spacer 42 must be mounted in order to
compensate the height difference.
Mount the router compass/guide-rail adapter 35 as
shown in the figure.
Fasten the guide rail 41 to the workpiece with suitable
clamping devices, e. g. screw clamps. Place the
machine with the guide-rail adapter 35 mounted onto
the guide rail.

Routing with Guide Bushing (see figures P–Q)
The guide bushing 43 enables template and pattern
routing on workpieces.
Choose a suitable guide bushing, depending on the
thickness of the template or the pattern. Because of
the projecting height of the guide bushing, the tem-
plate must have a minimum thickness of 8 mm.
Actuate the release lever 20 and insert the guide
bushing 43 from below into the base plate 6. Ensure
that the encoding keys clearly engage in the grooves
of the guide bushing.
Select a router bit with a diameter smaller
than the interior diameter of the guide bush-
ing.
For routing with the guide bushing 43 proceed as fol-
lows:
• Guide the switched on power tool with the guide
bushing toward the template.
• Push clamping lever 16 down and slowly lower the
plunge router until the adjusted depth-of-cut is
reached. Let go of the clamping lever 16 again to
lock this plunge depth.
If required, push clamping lever 16 up again to
finally lock it in place.
• Guide the switched on power tool with the pro-
truding guide bushing alongside the template
applying lateral pressure.

Maintenance and Service

Maintenance and Cleaning

Before any work on the machine itself, pull
the mains plug.
For safe and proper working, always keep
the machine and ventilation slots clean.
In extreme working conditions, conductive
dust can accumulate in the interior of the
machine when working with metal. The pro-
tective insulation of the machine can be
degraded. The use of a stationary extraction
system is recommended in such cases as
well as frequently blowing out the ventila-
tion slots and installing a residual current
device (RCD).
If the machine should fail despite the care taken in
manufacturing and testing procedures, repair should
be carried out by an after-sales service centre for
Bosch power tools.
In all correspondence and spare parts order, please
always include the 10-digit article number given on
the type plate of the machine.
