Adjusting the Riving Knife
(see figure B)
f Before any work on the machine itself, pull
the mains plug.
f Always work with the riving knife, except
when carrying out plunge cuts. The riving
knife prevents jamming of the saw blade
while sawing.
Adjustment is carried out at maximum cutting
depth, see Section “Adjusting the Cutting
Depth”.
Loosen screw 24, adjust the riving knife 12 to
the measure shown in the figure and tighten

3.5–5 Nm.
Dust/Chip Extraction
f Before any work on the machine itself, pull
the mains plug.
f Dusts from materials such as lead-containing
coatings, some wood types, minerals and
metal can be harmful to one’s health. Touch-
ing or breathing-in the dusts can cause aller-
gic reactions and/or lead to respiratory infec-
tions of the user or bystanders.
Certain dusts, such as oak or beech dust, are
considered as carcinogenic, especially in
connection with wood-treatment additives
(chromate, wood preservative). Materials
containing asbestos may only be worked by
specialists.
Use dust extraction whenever possible.
Provide for good ventilation of the work-
ing place.
It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-
class respirator.
Observe the relevant regulations in your
country for the materials to be worked.
External Dust Extraction
Mount the vacuum hose 29 (accessory) on to
the saw dust ejector 17. Connect the vacuum
hose 29 to a vacuum cleaner (accessory). An
overview for connecting to various vacuum
cleaners can be found at the end of this manual.
The machine can be plugged directly into the re-
ceptacle of a Bosch all-purpose vacuum cleaner
with remote starting control. The vacuum clean-
er starts automatically when the machine is
switched on.
The vacuum cleaner must be suitable for the ma-
terial being worked.
When vacuuming dry dust that is especially det-
rimental to health or carcinogenic, use a special
vacuum cleaner.
Integrated Dust Extraction with Dust Bag
For smaller jobs, a dust bag (accessory) can be
mounted. Insert the dust bag sleeve firmly into
the saw dust ejector 17. Empty the dust bag at
regular intervals to maintain optimum dust col-
lection.
Operation
Operating Modes
f Before any work on the machine itself, pull

the workpiece. Less than a full tooth of the
blade teeth should be visible below the work-
piece.
Loosen wing bolt 14. For a smaller cutting
depth, pull the saw away from the base plate 13;
for a larger cutting depth, push the saw toward
the base plate 13. Adjust the desired cutting
depth at the cutting-depth scale. Tighten wing
bolt 14 again.
Adjusting the Cutting Angle
Loosen wing bolt 6. Tilt the saw sidewards. Ad-
just the desired setting at the scale 5. Tighten
