– Use a dust extraction system that is suitable for the ma-
terial wherever possible.
– Provide good ventilation at the workplace.
– It is advisable to wear a P2 filter class breathing mask.
The regulations on the material being machined that apply in
the country of use must be observed.
The dust/chip extraction system can be blocked by dust,
chips or fragments of the workpiece.
– Switch the power tool off and pull the mains plug out of
the socket.
– Wait until the saw blade has come to a complete stop.
– Determine the cause of the blockage and eliminate it.
Avoid dust accumulation at the workplace. Dust can
u
easily ignite.
To prevent the risk of fire when sawing aluminium,
u
empty the chip ejector and the lower saw blade cover
and do not use chip extraction.
External dust extraction (see figure i)
Use the dust extraction adapter (41) provided to connect a
dust extractor to the chip ejector (40).
– Securely attach the dust extraction adapter (41) and the
dust extraction hose.
The dust extractor must be suitable for the material being
worked.
When extracting dry dust that is especially detrimental to
health or carcinogenic, use a special dust extractor.
Cleaning the lower saw blade cover (see figure j)
You can open the lower saw blade cover (57) to remove
workpiece fragments and large chips.
– Switch the power tool off and pull the mains plug out of
the socket.
– Wait until the saw blade has come to a complete stop.
– Tilt the power tool sideways.
– Loosen the two fastening screws on the base plate (45)
using the hey key (37) and fold up the base plate.
– Loosen the fastening screw (58) and open the lower saw
blade cover (57).
– Remove workpiece fragments and chips.
– Close the lower saw blade cover and screw it back on.
Screw the base plate back on.
– Bring the power tool into the work position.

Stationary or flexible mounting

To ensure safe handling, the power tool must be
u
mounted on a flat, stable work surface (e.g. work
bench) before use.
Mounting on a work surface (see figure k)
– Use suitable screw fasteners to secure the power tool to
the work surface. The holes (16) are used for this pur-
pose.

Mounting on a Bosch saw stand (see figure l)
Thanks to their height-adjustable legs, Bosch saw stands
(e.g. GTA 6000) provide firm support for the power tool on
any surface.
Read all the warnings and instructions included with
u
the saw stand. Failure to observe the warnings and fol-
low instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury.
Assemble the saw stand properly before mounting the
u
power tool. Correct assembly is important to prevent the
risk of collapsing.
– Mount the power tool on the saw stand in the transport
position.
Changing the saw blade (see figures m1−m4)
Pull the plug out of the socket before carrying out any
u
work on the power tool.
When mounting the saw blade, wear protective
u
gloves. This poses a risk of injury.
Only use saw blades the maximum permitted speed of
u
which is higher than the no-load speed of the power
tool.
Only use saw blades that match the specifications
u
given in this operating manual and that are tested and
marked in accordance with EN 847-1
Only use saw blades that are recommended by the
u
power tool manufacturer and are suitable for use on
the material you want to saw. This prevents the saw
tooth tips from overheating and the plastic you want to
saw from melting.
Do not use HSS saw blades. Such saw blades can easily
u
break.
Removing the saw blade
– Turn the crank (20) clockwise as far as possible so that
the saw blade (33) is in the highest possible position
above the saw table.
– Open the clamping lever (49) and pull the protective
cover (6) out of the groove on the riving knife (7).
– Use a screwdriver to lift the table insert (32) at the front
and remove it from the tool chamber.
– Turn the clamping nut (59) using the ring spanner (15)
while pulling the spindle locking lever (60) until it en-
gages.
– Keep pulling the spindle locking lever and unscrew the
clamping nut anti-clockwise.
– Remove the clamping flange (61).
– Remove the saw blade (33).
Fitting the saw blade
If required, clean all the parts you want to fit before installing
them.
– Place the new saw blade on the mounting flange (62) of
the tool spindle (63).
