Operating Instructions
The machine may not be clamped into a
grinder stand.
Make sure that the workpiece is firmly po-
sitioned and cannot move during machin-
ing.
In order to achieve optimum working
progress, an extreme drop in speed is to be
avoided. High stock removal occurs when
heavy sparking is given.
Rough Grinding
The best roughing results are
achieved when setting the machine
at an angle of 30° to 40°. Move the
machine back and forth with mod-
erate pressure. In this manner, the
workpiece will not become too hot,
does not discolour and no grooves
are formed.
Never use a cutting disc for roughing.
Cutting
When cutting, do not press, jam or
oscillate the machine. Work with
moderate feed, adapted to the ma-
terial being machined.
Do not reduce the speed of running down cutting
discs by applying sideward pressure.
Maintenance and Cleaning
Before any work on the machine itself, re-
move the battery.
For safe and proper working, always keep
the machine and the ventilation slots clean.
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 orders,
please always include the 10-digit article number
given on the nameplate of the machine.
