WARNING
Bosch Molding Table Insert No.TS1009. Never
make molding head cuts without this insert. Do not use molding
head sets larger than 7" diameter and with cutters wider than 1".
Never set molding cutters to any bevel angle other than the vertical
0° angle. Follow all warnings and instructions shown here and
those that accompany your molding head set. Failure to comply
with these warnings may result in serious bodily injuries.
NOTE: Leave the inner washer in its original sawing position.
Install molding head, then outer washer, and then arbor nut. Check
that all cutters and the arbor nut are securely tightened. Some
molding head sets come with an additional thick washer/spacer;
this part is not used on the 4100 table saw.
1. Disconnect plug from power source. Raise saw blade to
maximum height.
2. Remove the Barrier Guard Assembly and Anti-Kickback Device
(see page 26). Lower and lock the Riving Knife in its lowest
position.
3. Remove standard table insert plate.
4. Remove the arbor nut and only the outer blade washer and saw
blade (see page 30). NOTE: Leave inner blade washer on arbor
shaft.
5. Place molding head against inner washer (with cutters facing to
front of saw). Then place on the outer washer and tighten arbor
nut on arbor shaft.
6. Lower the cutters below the table top and insert the Bosch
Molding Table Insert (TS1009) (Fig. 72). Raise the cutters to the
desired depth of cut (above the insert). Check that the tool is not
plugged into a power source; then carefully rotate the cutters by
hand to make sure all components are tightly held and no
interferences exist.
7. Plug saw into power source. Using scrap wood, make practice
molding cuts and adjust height accordingly.

WARNING
hands over the cutting molding head cutters.
Molding cuts are non-thru (blind) cuts. Many times the cutters can
not be seen during cutting. See page 76 for instructions on non-
thru sawing. The work piece must be held against the saw's fence
as it is being fed. An auxiliary fence should be attached to the
saw's fence (see page 72). Never make freehand cuts. Whenever
possible, use push sticks and push blocks for molding cutting (see
page 74). Use feather boards and hold-downs, attached to the
table or fence (See page 76). IMPORTANT: Follow all instructions
and warnings that come with your molding head set.
RETURNING SAW TO NORMAL THRU-CUTTING
After completing your Molding cutting, be sure to return the inner
and outer washers to the original positions (see page 30 for
details). It is important that the original equipment washers are in
the proper positions so that the saw blade always aligns with the
permanently installed riving knife.
