Always direct the cable to the rear away from
the machine.
Apply the machine to the workpiece only when
switched on.
The cutting path must be free of obstacles both
above and below.
When sawing, the complete surface of the
base plate 6 should securely rest on the mate-
rial. When working with smaller or thin work-
pieces, use a stable base or a saw table (ac-
cessory).
When the cut is completed, switch off the ma-
chine and then pull the saw blade out of the cut
only after it has come to a standstill (danger of
kick-back).
Always switch off the machine and allow it to
come to a stop before putting it down.
After switching it off, do not apply lateral coun-
terpressure to reduce the speed of the saw
blade in order to bring it to a stop.
Use only sharp, flawless saw blades. Immedi-
ately replace cracked, bent or dull saw blades.
Never allow children to use the machine.
Bosch can only guarantee a flawless function-
ing of the machine if the original accessories
intended for it are used.
