Maintenance And Cleaning - Bosch GWS 7-115 Bedienungsanleitung

Cutting grinder Stand
With the cutting grinder stand 17 (optional extra),
work pieces of the same length can be cut at an-
gles of 0 to 45°.
When cutting profiles and square pipes, it is best
to start with the smallest cross section.
Cutting Stone
The machine must be used only for dry cut-
ting/grinding.
The machine must be operated only with dust ex-
traction. In addition, wear a dust mask.
Slide the machine with moderate advancing that
is adapted to the material to be worked (Figure).
For cutting especially hard material, e. g., con-
crete with high gravel content, the diamond cut-
ting disc can overheat and become damaged as
a result. This is indicated clearly by a ring of
sparks that rotates with the diamond cutting disc.
In this case, interrupt the cutting process and al-
low the diamond cutting disc to cool by running
frely at no-load speed for a short time.
Noticeable decreasing work progress and a rotat-
ing spark ring are indications of a diamond cutting
disc that has become dull. With brief cuts in an
abrasive material (e. g., chalky sand stone), it
can be sharpened again.

It is best to work with
a diamond cutting
disc. To ensure
against tilting, the
cutting guide 20
with special protec-
tive vacuuming hood
must be used.
The vacuum cleaner
must be approved for
the extraction of ma-
sonry dust.
Bosch provides suit-
able vacuum clean-
ers.
Switch on the ma-
chine and place the
front part of the cut-
ting guide on the
workpiece.

Rotating the Machine Head
Before any work on the machine itself, pull
the mains plug.
Unscrew completely the four screws.
Rotate the machine head carefully and without
removing from the housing to the new position.
Screw in the screws again and tighten.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Before any work on the machine itself, pull
the mains plug.
For safe and proper working, always keep
the machine and the ventilation slots clean.
In extreme working conditions, conductive
dust can accumulate in the interior of the
machine when working with metal. The
protective insulation of the machine can be
degraded. The use of a stationary extrac-
tion system is recommended in such cases
as well as frequently blowing out the venti-
lation slots and installing a residual current
device (RCD).
If the machine should fail despite the rigorous
manufacturing and testing procedures, repair
should be carried out by an authorised after-sales
service centre for Bosch power tools.
In all correspondence and spare parts orders,
please always include the 10-digit order number
given on the nameplate of the machine.
The machine head
can be rotated with re-
spect to the machine
housing in 90° steps.
In this manner, the
on/off switch can be
brought to an advan-
tageous handling po-
sition for special work-
ing situations, e. g.,
for cutting work with
the cutting guide 20/
cut-off stand 17 (op-
tional extra) or for left-
handed persons.
