DUST BAG (sold separately)
Using Dust Bag – To attach the empty dust bag,
press-fit its coupler end into the saw's Dust Port
18.
Cleaning Dust Bag – After the dust bag is 2/3 to
3/4 full, remove it from the saw. Bring the bag
to a proper container and pull open the zipper
located on the bottom of the bag. Hold the bag
by the coupler end and shake it vigorously until
all the dust and debris fall from it. Close zipper
and reattach the bag.
NOTE: Clean the bag at the end of the cutting
session and before transporting or storing the
saw.
CONNECTION TO VACUUM CLEANER /
DUST EXTRACTOR
Connect the vacuum cleaner hose to the dust
port.
Brake Action
Let the saw blade come to a
complete stop before set-
ting the tool down. The brake action of this
circular saw is not intended as a safety fea-
ture. Unintended contact with a rotating saw
blade can cause property damage and/or per-
sonal injury.
Know the charge state of
your battery. The electric
braking action is initiated ONLY by the release
of the trigger switch and in a tool that has
power available. When electrical power is lost
due to a discharged battery or other causes,
the electric brake will not operate and the mo-
tor will gradually slow down. Unexpected run
down time may cause property damage and/or
personal injury.
Your circular saw is equipped with an automatic
electric brake, which is designed to stop the
saw blade from spinning in approximately two
(2) seconds after you release the trigger switch.
This feature helps improve jobsite productivity.
Braking starts once the power is turned off. The
brake requires a charged battery to function.

Saw Assembly
— Bosch VH-series hoses - The VX120 hose
adapter is required (included with VH-series
hoses).
— Other 35mm and 22mm hoses, such as the
Bosch VAC-series hoses - Connect hose di-
rectly to the tool.
— Common 11/4" or 11/2" hoses - The Bosch
VAC024 adapter is required (sold separately).
Connect the vacuum hose to a vacuum cleaner.
The vacuum cleaner must be suitable for the
material being worked on.
When vacuuming dry dust that is especially
detrimental to health or carcinogenic, use a
special vacuum cleaner / dust extractor.
Operating Instructions
Stopping time will vary depending on, among
other factors, saw blade used, and number of
actuations. The electric brake of your circular
saw has been designed for a high degree of
reliability, but unexpected circumstances such
as contamination or failure of the motor's com-
ponents can cause the brake to not activate. If
the tool operates but the brake does not con-
sistently stop the blade in about 2 seconds, DO
NOT use the circular saw and have it serviced by
a Bosch Factory Service Center or Bosch autho-
rized service facility.
Protection Against Deep Discharging
The lithium ion battery is protected against
deep discharging by the "Electronic Cell Protec-
tion (ECP)". When the battery is empty, the tool
is switched off by means of a protective circuit.
Overload Protection
Your saw is equipped with Electronic Motor Pro-
tection (EMP), which shuts the tool off under
overload conditions that could damage the tool.
This feature can be reset by simply releasing the
trigger and re-engaging the trigger again to re-
start the tool.
