ing steps must be carried out:
– Loosen the locking screw 25 if tightened.
Pull the tool arm completely to the front and
tighten the locking screw again.

turn the depth stop lever 47 in clockwise di-
rection back to the stop.
– Bring the machine into the transport posi-

If possible, place unused saw blades in an

When transporting the power tool, use only
the transport devices and never use the

Maintenance and Service

Maintenance and Cleaning
Before any work on the machine itself, pull
the mains plug.
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.
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. There-
fore, always keep the area around the retracting
blade guard clean.
