APPLICATIONS
Your Bosch Multi-X oscillating tool is intended
for sanding and cutting wooden materials,
plastic, plaster and non-ferrous metals. It is
especially suitable for working close to edges,
in tight spaces, and for flush cutting.
Below are some typical uses for your Bosch
Multi-X oscillating tool.
For all accessories, work
WARNING
with the accessory away
from the body. Never position hand near or
directly in front of working area. Always hold
the tool with both hands and wear protective
gloves.
Flush Cutting
Remove excess wood from door jamb, window
sill and/or toekick. Removing excess copper or
PVC pipe.
Removal work
e.g. carpets & backing, old tile adhesives,
caulking on masonry, wood and other
surfaces.
Removal of excess materials
e.g. plaster, mortar splatters, concrete on tiles,
sills.
Preparation of surfaces
e.g. for new floors and tiles.
Detail sanding
e.g. for sanding in extremely tight areas
otherwise difficult to reach and require hand
sanding
CUTTING
Saw blades are ideal for making precise cuts
in tight areas, close to edges or flush to a
surface.
Select a medium to high speed for making
initial plunge, start off at medium speed for
increased control. After making your initial cut,
you can increase speed for faster cutting
ability.
Flush
intended to make precise cuts to
allow for installation of flooring or
wall material. When flush cutting
it is important not to force the tool during the
plunge cut. If you experience a strong vibration
in your hand during the plunge cut, this
indicates that you are applying too much
pressure. Back the tool out and let the speed
of the tool do the work. While keeping the teeth
of the blade in the work surface, move the
Operating Applications
cutting blades are
back of the tool in a slow sideways motion.
This motion will help expedite the cut.
When making a flush cut it is always a good
idea to have a piece of scrap material (tile or
wood) supporting the blade. If you need to rest
the flush cutting blade on a delicate surface,
you should protect the surface with cardboard
or masking tape.
The flat saw blade is ideal for
making precise cuts in wood,
plaster, drywall material.
Applications include cutting openings in
flooring for venting, repairing damaged
flooring, cutting openings for electrical boxes.
The blade works best on softer woods such as
pine. For harder woods, the blade life will be
limited.
Select a medium to high speed.
The flat saw blade can also be used for
window restoration making glazing easy to
remove. The saw blade can be placed directly
against the edge of the window frame, guiding
the blade through the glazing.
GROUT REMOVAL
Grout removal blades are ideal
for removing damaged or
cracked grout. Grout blades
come in different widths (1/16" and 1/8") to
tackle different grout line widths. Before
selecting a grout blade measure the grout line
width to pick the appropriate blade.
Select a medium to high speed.
To remove the grout, use a back and forth
motion, making several passes along the grout
line. The hardness of the grout will dictate how
many passes are needed. Try and keep the
grout blade aligned with the grout line and be
careful not to apply too much side pressure on
the grout blade during the process. To control
plunge depth use the carbide grit line on the
blade as an indicator. Be careful not to plunge
beyond the carbide grit line to avoid damage to
the backer board material.
The grout blades can handle both sanded and
unsanded grout. If you notice the blade
clogging during the grout removal process, you
can use a brass brush to clean the grit, thus
exposing the grit again.
The grout blade geometry is designed so that
the blade can remove all grout up to the
surface of a wall or corner. This can be
