to stand on the tool or its stand to reach them.

"$&%

Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part

that is damaged should be carefully checked to en-

sure that it will operate properly and perform its in-

tended function. Check for alignment of moving

parts, mounting and any other con di tions that may

affect its operation. A guard or other part that is dam-

aged should be properly replaced.

All repairs, electrical or mechanical,

should be attempted only by

trained repairmen. Contact the nearest Bosch

Factory Service Center, Authorized Service Station

or other competent repair service.

Use only Bosch replacement parts;

any others may create a hazard.

Use only accessories that are rec-

ommended by the manufacturer for

your model. Accessories that may be suitable for

one tool, may become hazardous when used on an-

other tool.

These tools are precision built. Any alteration or

modification not specified is misuse and may result

in dangerous con ditions.

(!%!'%$%

Do not operate electric tools in gaseous or explosive

at mo spheres. Motors in these tools normally spark,

and may re sult in a dangerous condition.

 & &!!%)&$

Keep tools sharp and clean for better and safer

perfor mance. Follow instructions for lubricating and

changing ac cessories. Inspect tool cords periodi-

cally and if damaged, have repaired by authorized

service facility. Inspect ex tension cords periodically

and replace if damaged. Keep handles dry, clean

and free from oil and grease.

Before connecting the tool to a

power source (receptacle, outlet,

etc.), be sure voltage supplied is the same as that

specified on the nameplate of the tool. A power

source with voltage greater than that specified for

the tool can result in serious injury to the user — as

well as damage to the tool. If in doubt, DO NOT

PLUG IN THE TOOL. Using a power source with

voltage less than the nameplate rating is harmful to

the motor.

For your own safety, do not operate

your table saw until it is completely

assembled and installed according to the instruc-

tions … and until you have read and understood the

following:

%&&+!%)

Your table saw MUST BE BOLTED securely to a

stand or workbench. In addition, if there is any ten-

dency for the table saw to tip over or move during

certain operations such as cutting long, heavy

boards, use an auxiliary support.

!&!

Use the table saw in a well lit area and on a level

surface, clean and smooth enough to reduce the risk

of trips and falls. Use it where neither the operator

nor the casual observer is forced to stand in line with

the blade.



Kickbacks can cause serious injury: A “KICKBACK”

occurs when a part of the workpiece binds between

the sawblade and the rip fence or other fixed object.

Workpiece binding the blade due to misalignment,

can also cause kickback. During kickback, work-

piece rises from table and is thrown toward the op-

erator. Keep your face and body to one side of the

sawblade, out of line with a possible “KICKBACK”.

- Maintaining the rip fence parallel to the sawblade.

.Keeping the sawblade sharp. Replacing or sharp-

ening anti-kickback pawls when points become dull.

/Keeping sawblade guard, spreader and anti-kick-

back pawls in place and operating properly. The

spreader must be in alignment with the sawblade

and the pawls must stop a kickback once it has

started. Check their action before ripping.

0NOT ripping workpiece that is twisted or warped

or does not have a straight edge to guide along the

rip fence.

1NOT releasing work until you have pushed it all

the way past the sawblade.

2Using a Push Stick for ripping widths of 2" to 6"

and an auxiliary fence and Push Block for ripping

widths narrower than 2" (See “Basic Saw Operation,

Using The Rip Fence” section, pages 29, 30).

3NOT confining the cut-off piece when ripping or

cross cutting.

4When ripping, apply the feed force to the section

of the workpiece between the sawblade and the rip

fence. Use Push Stick or Push Block when appro-

priate (See item f. above).

-If any part of your saw is missing, malfunctioning,

has been damaged or broken … such as the motor

switch, or other operating control, a safety device or

the power cord … cease operating immediately until

the particular part is properly repaired or replaced.

.Wear safety goggles and a face shield if operation

is dusty. Wear ear plugs or muffs during extended

periods of operation. Small loose pieces of wood or

other objects that contact the rear of the revolving

blade can be thrown back at the operator at exces-

sive speed. This can usually be avoided by keeping

the guard and spreader in place for all “THRU-SAW-

ING” operations (sawing entirely thru the work) AND

by removing all loose pieces from the table with a

long stick of wood IMMEDIATELY after they are cut

off.

/Use extra caution when the guard assembly is re-

moved for resawing, dadoing, rabbeting or molding

— replace the guard as soon as that operation is

completed.

0NEVER turn the saw “ON” before clearing the

table of all tools, wood scraps, etc., except the work-

piece and related feed or support devices for the op-

eration planned.

1NEVER place your face or body in line with the

cutting tool.

GNEVER place your fingers and hands in the path of

the sawblade or other cutting tool.

GNEVER reach in back of the cutting tool with either

hand to hold down or support the workpiece, remove

wood scraps, or for any other reason. Avoid awkward

operations and hand positions where sudden slip

could cause fingers or hand to move into a sawblade

or other cutting tool.

GDO NOT perform any operation “FREEHAND” —

always use either the rip fence or the miter gauge to

position and guide the work.

GNEVER use the rip fence when crosscutting or the

miter gauge when ripping. DO NOT use the rip fence

as a length stop.

GNEVER hold onto or touch the “free end” of the

workpiece or a “free piece” that is cut off, while power

is “ON” and/or the sawblade is rotating.

GShut “OFF” the saw and disconnect the power cord

when removing the table insert, changing the cutting

tool, removing or replacing the blade guard, or mak-

ing adjustments.

GProvide adequate support to the rear and sides of

the saw table for wider or long workpieces.

GPlastic and composition (like hardboard) materials

may be cut on your saw. However, since these are

usually quite hard and slippery, the anti-kickback

pawls may not stop a kick back. Therefore, be espe-

cially attentive to following proper set-up and cutting

procedures for ripping. Do not stand, or permit any-

one else to stand, in line with a potential kickback.

2 If you stall or jam the sawblade in the workpiece,

turn saw “OFF”, remove the workpiece from the saw-

blade, and check to see if the sawblade is parallel to

the table slots or grooves and if the spreader is in

proper alignment with the sawblade. If ripping at the

time, check to see if rip fence is parallel with the saw-

blade. Readjust as indicated.

3NEVER gang crosscut — lining up more than one

work piece in front of the blade (stacked vertically, or

horizontally outward on the table) and then pushing

thru sawblade. The blade could pick up one or more

pieces and cause a binding or loss of control and

possible injury.

4DO NOT remove small pieces of cut-off material

that may become trapped inside the blade guard

while the saw is running. This could endanger your

hands or cause a kick back. Turn saw “OFF” and wait

until blade stops.

5Do not reach beyond table saw base. Keep your

hands away from spinning blade.

 !)+!'$'&& &!!%

Dull, gummy or improperly sharpened or set cutting

tools can cause material to stick, jam, stall the saw,

or kickback at the operator. Minimize potential injury

by proper cutting tool and machine maintenance.

NEVER ATTEMPT TO FREE A STALLED SAW-

BLADE WITHOUT FIRST TURNING THE SAW

OFF.

- NEVER use grinding wheels, abrasive cut-off

wheels, fric tion wheels (metal slitting blades) wire

wheels or buffing wheels.

.USE ONLY RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES.

/Crosscutting operations are more conveniently

worked and with greater safety if an auxiliary wood

facing is attached to the miter gauge. (See Page 26).

0Make sure the top of the cutting tool rotates toward

you when standing in normal operating position. Also

make sure the cutting tool, arbor collars and arbor

nut are installed pro p erly. Keep the cutting tool as low

as possible for the oper ation being performed. Keep

all guards in place whenever possible.

GDo not use any blade or other cutting tool marked

for an operating speed less than 5000 R.P.M. Never

use a cutting tool larger in diameter than the diameter

for which the saw was designed. For greatest safety

and efficiency when rip ping, use the maximum diam-

eter blade for which the saw is designed, since under

these conditions the spreader is near est the blade.

1Make sure the table insert is flush or slightly below

the table surface on all sides except for rear side.

NEVER oper ate the saw unless the proper insert is

installed.

SAFETY IS A COMBINATION OF OPERATOR

COMMON SENSE AND ALERTNESS AT ALL

TIMES WHEN THE TABLE SAW IS BEING USED.

Do not allow familiarity (gained from fre quent use of

your table saw) to become com -

mon place. Always remember that

a careless fraction of a second is sufficient to inflict

severe injury.

The operation of

any power tool

can result in for-

eign objects being

thrown into the

eyes, which can

result in severe

eye damage. Al-

ways wear safety

goggles that com-

ply with ANSI Z87.1 (shown on pack age) before

commencing power tool operation.

• Lead from lead-based paints,

• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other

masonry products, and

• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated

lumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending

on how often you do this type of work. To reduce

your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well

ventilated area, and work with approved safety

equipment, such as those dust masks that are spe-

cially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

Double insulation is a design concept used in

electric power tools which eliminates the need for

the three wire grounded power cord and grounded

power supply system. It is a recognized and ap-

proved system by Underwriter’s Laboratories, CSA

and Federal OSHA authorities.

"!$& & Servicing of a tool with double insu-

lation requires care and knowledge of the system

and should be performed only by a qualified service

technician.

WHEN SERVICING, USE ONLY IDENTICAL RE-

PLACEMENT PARTS.

POLARIZED PLUGS. To reduce the risk of electri-

cal shock, your tool is equipped with a polarized plug

(one blade is wider than the other), this plug will fit

in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does

not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does

not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the

proper outlet. To reduce the risk of electrical shock,

do not change the plug in any way.

*& %! !$%

Replace damaged cords immedi-

ately. Use of damaged cords can

shock, burn or electrocute.

If an extension cord is necessary, a

cord with adequate size conductors

should be used to prevent excessive voltage drop,

loss of power or overheating. The table shows the

correct size to use, depending on cord length and

nameplate amperage rating of tool. If in doubt, use

the next heavier gauge. Always use U.L. and CSA

listed extension cords.

make sure the rip fence is locked

before making rip cuts.

1. Lift both guard barriers  to their up locked posi-

tion.

2. Raise lock handle  and slide fence until it is

alongside the sawblade, by lifting right side pawl

 above fence (Fig. 23).

The fence should touch the blade teeth at the

front and rear of the blade. If fence does not touch

the teeth at front and rear of blade continue with

the following the steps:

3. Loosen the two screws  on the top front section

of the rip fence using the included 5mm hex

wrench.

4. Move fence  until it touches the teeth and is

parallel to the blade.

5. Hold fence in place and lower lock handle, check

to make sure the fence stayed parallel to the

blade then tighten screws (Fig. 23).

6. Clamp rip fence to check if it holds securely at

front and rear. If rear is not clamped securely, un-

clamp fence and turn rear clamp adjustment

screw  clockwise for increased clamp ing. Try

clamping the fence to verify if it self aligns and

clamps tightly at the front and rear. Overtightening

of the rear clamp adjustment screw  will cause

the rip fence to be non-self aligning (Fig. 23).

Overtightening may cause friction or “chatter”

when fence is moved side to side.

If an adjustment to the table pointer is necessary,

loosen pointer ad justment screw , adjust pointer

 and tighten screw  (Fig. 25).

The table pointer should always be adjusted

relative to fence pointer.

1. Adjust fence pointer to (zero) - see “Rip Fence

Pointer Adjustment”.

2. Make sure the table is in the closed position and

slide fence to the right until the fence pointer is

at 10”. (Note: A portion of the fence will be off

the rail.)

3. Look at fence pointer and note 10” on lower

scale.

4. Adjust the table pointer  to the same reading

on upper scale as that shown on the fence

pointer. Both pointers must agree when fence is

at this position.
