Safety Warnings for Sliding Mitre Saws

 The power tool is provided with a laser warning label

(marked with number 34 in the representation of the

power tool on the graphics page).

 If the text of the warning label is not in your national

language, stick the provided warning label in your na-

tional language over it before operating for the first

time.

Do not direct the laser beam at persons

or animals and do not stare into the di-

rect or reflected laser beam yourself, not

even from a distance. You could blind

somebody, cause accidents or damage

your eyes.

 If laser radiation strikes your eye, you must deliberate-

ly close your eyes and immediately turn your head

away from the beam.

 Do not make any modifications to the laser equipment.

The setting options described in these operating instruc-

tions can be used safely.

 Never make warning signs on the machine unrecognis-

able.

 Keep your workplace clean. Blends of materials are par-

ticularly dangerous. Dust from light alloys can burn or ex-

plode.

 Store the machine in a safe manner when not being

used. The storage location must be dry and lockable.

This prevents the machine from storage damage, and from

being operated by untrained persons.

 Use the machine only for cutting the materials listed

under Intended Use. Otherwise, the machine can be sub-

ject to overload.

 Always firmly clamp the piece to be worked. Do not saw

workpieces that are too small to clamp. Otherwise, the

clearance of your hand to the rotating saw blade is too

small.

 Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.

Greasy, oily handles are slippery causing loss of control.

 Never use the machine with a damaged cable. Do not

touch the damaged cable and pull the mains plug when

the cable is damaged while working. Damaged cables in-

crease the risk of an electric shock.

 Check the cable regularly and have a damaged cable re-

paired only through an authorised customer service

agent for Bosch power tools. Replace damaged exten-

sion cables. This will ensure that the safety of the power

tool is maintained.

 Do not use dull, cracked, bent or damaged saw blades.

Unsharpened or improperly set saw blades produce nar-

row kerf causing excessive friction, blade binding and kick-

back.

 Never operate the machine without the insert plate.

Replace a defective insert plate. Without flawless insert

plates, injuries are possible from the saw blade.

 Do not use high speed steel (HSS) saw blades. Such saw

blades can easily break.

 Always use blades with correct size and shape (dia-

mond versus round) of arbour holes. Blades that do not

match the mounting hardware of the saw will run eccentri-

cally, causing loss of control.

 Make sure that the guard operates properly and that it

can move freely. Never lock the guard in place when

opened.

 Operate the power tool only when the work area to the

workpiece is clear of any adjusting tools, wood chips,

etc. Small pieces of wood or other objects that come in

contact with the rotating saw blade can strike the operator

with high speed.

 Keep the floor free of wood chips and material remain-

ders. You could slip or trip.

 Never remove cutting remainders, wood chips, etc.

from the sawing area while the machine is running. Al-

ways guide the tool arm back to the neutral position first

and then switch the machine off.

 Do not touch the saw blade after working before it has

cooled. The saw blade becomes very hot while working.

 If the saw blade should become jammed, switch the ma-

chine off and hold the workpiece until the saw blade

comes to a complete stop. To prevent kickback, the

workpiece may not be moved until after the machine

has come to a complete stop. Correct the cause for the

jamming of the saw blade before restarting the machine.

 Never leave the machine before it has come to a com-

plete stop. Cutting tools that are still running can cause in-

juries.

 Guide the saw blade against the workpiece only when

the machine is switched on. Otherwise there is danger of

kickback when the saw blade becomes wedged in the

workpiece.

 Never stand on the power tool. Serious injuries can occur

when the power tool tips over or when inadvertently com-

ing into contact with the saw blade.

Products sold in GB only: Your product is fitted with a

BS 1363/A approved electric plug with internal fuse (ASTA

approved to BS 1362).

If the plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be

cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place by an author-

ised customer service agent. The replacement plug should

have the same fuse rating as the original plug.

The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible

shock hazard and should never be inserted into a mains sock-

et elsewhere.

Products sold in AUS and NZ only: Use a residual current de-

vice (RCD) with a rated residual current of 30 mA or less.
