– Insert the batteries provided according to the specified po-
larity.
– Close the battery compartment.
Mounting Saw-table Extensions (see figure B)
The saw-table extensions 14 can be positioned on the left,
right or front of the saw table base.
The flexible plug-in system enables a variety of extension pos-
sibilities (see figure H).
– Insert the saw-table extension 14 into the openings 28 of
the saw-table base or into the openings 32 of the second
saw-table extension.

Stationary or Flexible Mounting

 To ensure safe handling, the machine must be mounted
on a level and stable surface (e. g., workbench) prior to
using.
Mounting to a Working Surface (see figure D1)
– Screw the tilt protector 10 in or out until the machine is po-
sitioned level on the working surface.
– Fasten the power tool with suitable screw fasteners to the
working surface. The mounting holes 7 serve for this pur-
pose.

Mounting to a Bosch Saw Stand (see figure D2)
With the height-adjustable legs, Bosch saw stands (e.g.
PTA 2400) provide firm support for the power tool on any
surface. The workpiece supports of the saw stand are used for
underlaying long workpieces.
Note: To support long workpieces in this case, only use the
workpiece supports of the saw stand and not the power tool's
saw-table extensions 14.
 Read all safety warnings and instructions included with
the worktable. Failure to observe safety warnings and in-
structions can lead to electrical shock, fire and/or cause
serious injuries.
 Assemble the worktable properly before mounting the
power tool. Perfect assembly is important in order to pre-
vent the risk of collapsing.
– Mount the power tool in transport position on the saw
stand.

Dust/Chip Extraction

Dusts from materials such as lead-containing coatings, some
wood types, minerals and metal can be harmful to one's
health. Touching or breathing-in the dusts can cause allergic
reactions and/or lead to respiratory infections of the user or
bystanders.
Certain dusts, such as oak or beech dust, are considered as
carcinogenic, especially in connection with wood-treatment
additives (chromate, wood preservative). Materials contain-
ing asbestos may only be worked by specialists.
– Always use dust extraction.
– Provide for good ventilation of the working place.
– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class respirator.
Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the mate-
rials to be worked.
The dust/chip extraction can be blocked by dust, chips or
workpiece fragments.
– Switch the machine off and pull the mains plug from the
socket outlet.
– Wait until the saw blade has come to a complete stop.
– Determine the cause of the blockage and correct it.
Integrated Dust Extraction (see figure C)
– Mount the dust bag 19 onto the chip ejector 22.
During sawing, the dust bag must never come into contact
with the movable machine parts.
Always empty the dust bag in good time.
External Dust Extraction
For dust extraction, a vacuum hose (size Ø 36 mm) can also
be connected to the chip ejector 22.
The vacuum cleaner must be suitable for the material being
worked.
When vacuuming dry dust that is especially detrimental to
health or carcinogenic, use a special vacuum cleaner.
