When the angle indicators 44 and 33 are not in line with the
45° marks of scale 32 after adjusting, firstly once more check
the 0° setting for the bevel angle and the angle indicators.
Then repeat the adjustment of the 45° bevel angle.
Aligning the Scale for Mitre Angles
– Bring the power tool into the working position.
– Turn the saw table 16 to the 0° detent 25. The lever 22
must be felt to engage in the detent.
Checking: (see figure W1)
– Adjust an angle gauge to 90° and position it between the
fence 14 and the saw blade 12 on the saw table 16.
The leg of the angle gauge must be flush with the saw blade 12
over the complete length.
Adjusting: (see figure W2)
– Loosen all four set screws 62 with a cross-head screwdriv-
er and turn the saw table 16 together with the scale 18 un-
til the leg of the angle gauge is flush with the saw blade over
the complete length.
– Retighten the screws again.
When the angle indicator 24 is not in line with the 0° mark of
scale 18 after adjusting, loosen screw 63 with a cross-head
screwdriver and align the angle indicator alongside the
0° mark.
Transport (see figure X)
Before transporting the power tool, the following steps must
be carried out:
– Loosen the locking screw 35 if tightened. Pull the tool arm
completely to the front and tighten the locking screw
again.
– Make sure that the depth stop 34 is pushed completely in-
ward and that adjusting screw 4 fits through the recess
without touching the depth stop when moving the tool
arm.
– Bring the machine into the transport position.
– Remove all accessories that cannot be mounted firmly to
the power tool.
If possible, place unused saw blades in an enclosed con-
tainer for transport.
– Wind up the mains cable and tie it together with Velcro
strap 64.
– Carry the machine by the transport handle 3 or hold it by
the recessed handles 27 on the sides of the saw table.
 The power tool should always be carried by two per-
sons in order to avoid back injuries.
 When transporting the power tool, use only the trans-
port devices and never use the protective devices.

Maintenance and Service

Maintenance and Cleaning
 Before any work on the machine itself, pull the mains
plug.
If the replacement of the supply cord is necessary, this has to
be done by Bosch or an authorized Bosch service agent in or-
der to avoid a safety hazard.
Cleaning
For safe and proper working, always keep the power tool and
its ventilation slots clean.
The retracting blade guard must always be able to move freely
and retract automatically. Therefore, always keep the area
around the retracting blade guard clean.
Remove dust and chips after each working procedure by
blowing out with compressed air or with a brush.
Clean the roller 6 regularly.
To clean the laser unit, turn the laser lens cover 65 outward
and remove any dust using a brush. (see figure Y)
