tion 3, the stroke rate can be preset and changed
during operation.

Working Advice

When sawing light building materials,
observe the statutory provisions and the
recommendations of the material suppliers.
Check wood, press boards, building materials,
etc. for foreign objects such as nails, screws or
similar, and remove them, if required.
Clamp the workpiece firmly. Under no circum-
stances should the workpiece be held with the
hand or foot.
The top and bottom of the cutting path must
be free of obstructions.
Only remove the saw blade guard 11 for sawing.
Hold the switched-on machine firmly when apply-
ing it to the workpiece. Pay attention not to come
into contact with the ground or inadvertently
touch other objects (danger of kickback).
After finishing the working procedure, switch the
power tool off.
In case the saw blades become jammed, switch
off the machine immediately. Widen the sawing
cut somewhat with a suitable tool and pull out
the machine.
Do not use the sword 1 to pry away sawn off
wood pieces, etc.
Plunge Cutting (see figures G – H)
Plunge cuts may only be applied to soft
materials, such as wood, gypsum plaster
boards, etc.!
Place the machine with the tip of the saw blade
facing against the workpiece and switch on.
While sawing carefully, allow the sword to plunge
into the workpiece until it is sawn through.
Hold the machine well inclined to the workpiece
and continue to saw alongside the cutting line.

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.
Clean the sword 1, the saw blade guide 19 and
the saw blades 12 after finishing the work.
The saw blades 12 and the saw blade guide 19
may not be lubricated, as this would impair dust
extraction.
WARNING! Important instructions for connect-
ing a new 3-pin plug to the 2-wire cable.
The wires in the cable are coloured according to
the following code:
Do not connect the blue or brown wire to the
earth terminal of the plug.
Important: If for any reason the moulded plug is
removed from the cable of this power tool, it
must be disposed of safely.
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.
