Safety Symbols

The definitions below describe the level of severity for each signal word.

Please read the manual and pay attention to these symbols.

This is the safety alert symbol. It is used to alert you to potential

personal injury hazards. Obey all safety messages that follow this

symbol to avoid possible injury or death.

DANGER indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided,

will result in death or serious injury.

WARNING indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided,

could result in death or serious injury.

CAUTION indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided,

could result in minor or moderate injury.

General Power Tool Safety Warnings

Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the

warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, ﬁre and/or seri-

ous injury.

SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power

tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

▶ Work Area Safety

Keep work area clean and well lit. Clut-

tered or dark areas invite accidents.

Do not operate power tools in explosive

atmospheres, such as in the presence of

ﬂammable liquids, gases or dust. Power

tools create sparks which may ignite the

dust or fumes.

Keep children and bystanders away while

operating a power tool. Distractions can

cause you to lose control.

▶ Electrical Safety

Power tool plugs must match the outlet.

Never modify the plug in any way. Do

not use any adapter plugs with earthed

(grounded) power tools. Unmodiﬁed

plugs and matching outlets will reduce

risk of electric shock.

Avoid body contact with earthed or

grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radia-

tors, ranges and refrigerators. There is

an increased risk of electric shock if your

body is earthed or grounded.

Do not expose power tools to rain or wet

conditions. Water entering a power tool

will increase the risk of electric shock.

Do not abuse the cord. Never use the

cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging

the power tool. Keep cord away from

heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.

Damaged or entangled cords increase the

risk of electric shock.

When operating a power tool outdoors,

use an extension cord suitable for out-

door use. Use of a cord suitable for out-

door use reduces the risk of electric shock.

If operating a power tool in a damp loca-

tion is unavoidable, use a Ground Fault

Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protected sup-

ply. Use of an GFCI reduces the risk of

electric shock.

▶ Personal Safety

Stay alert, watch what you are doing and

use common sense when operating a

power tool. Do not use a power tool while

you are tired or under the inﬂuence of

drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment

of inattention while operating power tools

may result in serious personal injury.

General Power Tool Safety Warnings

Use personal protective equipment. Al-

ways wear eye protection. Protective

equipment such as dust mask, non-skid

safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protec-

tion used for appropriate conditions will

reduce personal injuries.

Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure

the switch is in the oﬀ-position before

connecting to power source and / or bat-

tery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.

Carrying power tools with your ﬁnger on

the switch or energizing power tools that

have the switch on invites accidents.

Remove any adjusting key or wrench be-

fore turning the power tool on. A wrench

or a key left attached to a rotating part of

the power tool may result in personal in-

jury.

Do not overreach. Keep proper footing

and balance at all times. This enables bet-

ter control of the power tool in unexpect-

ed situations.

Dress properly. Do not wear loose cloth-

ing or jewelry. Keep your hair, cloth-

ing and gloves away from moving parts.

Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be

caught in moving parts.

If devices are provided for the connec-

tion of dust extraction and collection fa-

cilities, ensure these are connected and

properly used. Use of dust collection can

reduce dust-related hazards.

▶ Power Tool Use and Care

Do not force the power tool. Use the cor-

rect power tool for your application. The

correct power tool will do the job better

and safer at the rate for which it was de-

signed.

Do not use the power tool if the switch

does not turn it on and oﬀ. Any power

tool that cannot be controlled with the

switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

Disconnect the plug from the power

source and/or the battery pack from the

power tool before making any adjust-

ments, changing accessories, or storing

power tools. Such preventive safety mea-

sures reduce the risk of starting the power

tool accidentally.

Store idle power tools out of the reach

of children and do not allow persons

unfamiliar with the power tool or these

instructions to operate the power tool.

Power tools are dangerous in the hands of

untrained users.

Maintain power tools. Check for misalign-

ment or binding of moving parts, break-

age of parts and any other condition that

may aﬀect the power tool’s operation. If

damaged, have the power tool repaired

before use. Many accidents are caused by

poorly maintained power tools.

Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Prop-

erly maintained cutting tools with sharp

cutting edges are less likely to bind and

are easier to control.

Use the power tool, accessories and

tool bits etc. in accordance with these

instructions, taking into account the

working conditions and the work to be

performed. Use of the power tool for op-

erations diﬀerent from those intended

could result in a hazardous situation.

▶ Service

Have your power tool serviced by a quali-

ﬁed repair person using only identical

replacement parts. This will ensure that

the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Power Tool-Specific Safety Warnings

▶ Safety Warnings Common

for Grinding, Sanding, Wire

Brushing, and Abrasive

Cutting-Oﬀ Operations

This power tool is intended to function

as a grinder, sander, wire brush or cut-oﬀ

tool. Read all safety warnings, instruc-

tions, illustrations and speciﬁcations

provided with this power tool. Failure to

follow all instructions listed below may re-

sult in electric shock, ﬁre and/or serious

injury.

Operations such as polishing are not rec-

ommended to be performed with this

power tool. Operations for which the

power tool was not designed may create a

hazard and cause personal injury.

Do not use accessories which are not spe-

ciﬁcally designed and recommended by

the tool manufacturer. Just because the

accessory can be attached to your power

tool, it does not assure safe operation.

The rated speed of the accessory must

be at least equal to the maximum speed

marked on the power tool. Accessories

running faster than their rated speed can

break and ﬂy apart.

The outside diameter and the thickness

of your accessory must be within the

capacity rating of your power tool. In-

correctly sized accessories cannot be ad-

equately guarded or controlled.

Threaded mounting of accessories must

match the grinder spindle thread. For ac-

cessories mounted by ﬂanges, the arbour

hole of the accessory must ﬁt the locat-

ing diameter of the ﬂange. Accessories

that do not match the mounting hardware

of the power tool will run out of balance,

vibrate excessively and may cause loss of

control.

Do not use a damaged accessory. Before

each use inspect the accessory such as

abrasive wheels for chips and cracks,

backing pad for cracks, tear or excess

wear, wire brush for loose or cracked

wires. If power tool or accessory is

dropped, inspect for damage or install

an undamaged accessory. After inspect-

ing and installing an accessory, posi-

tion yourself and bystanders away from

the plane of the rotating accessory and

run the power tool at maximum no-load

speed for one minute. Damaged accesso-

ries will normally break apart during this

test time.

Wear personal protective equipment. De-

pending on application, use face shield,

safety goggles or safety glasses. As ap-

propriate, wear dust mask, hearing pro-

tectors, gloves and workshop apron

capable of stopping small abrasive or

workpiece fragments. The eye protection

must be capable of stopping ﬂying debris

generated by various operations. The dust

mask or respirator must be capable of ﬁl-

trating particles generated by your opera-

tion. Prolonged exposure to high intensity

noise may cause hearing loss.

Keep bystanders a safe distance away

from work area. Anyone entering the

work area must wear personal protec-

tive equipment. Fragments of workpiece

or of a broken accessory may ﬂy away and

cause injury beyond immediate area of op-

eration.

Hold the power tool by insulated grip-

ping surfaces only, when performing an

operation where the cutting accessory

may contact hidden wiring or its own

cord. Cutting accessory contacting a “live”

wire may make exposed metal parts of the

power tool “live” and could give the opera-

tor an electric shock.

Position the cord clear of the spinning ac-

cessory. If you lose control, the cord may

be cut or snagged and your hand or arm

may be pulled into the spinning accessory.

Never lay the power tool down until the

accessory has come to a complete stop.

The spinning accessory may grab the sur-

face and pull the power tool out of your

control.

Do not run the power tool while carrying

it at your side. Accidental contact with the

spinning accessory could snag your cloth-

ing, pulling the accessory into your body.

Power Tool-Specific Safety Warnings

Regularly clean the power tool’s air

vents. The motor’s fan will draw the dust

inside the housing and excessive accumu-

lation of powdered metal may cause elec-

trical hazards.

Do not operate the power tool near ﬂam-

mable materials. Sparks could ignite

these materials.

Do not use accessories that require liquid

coolants. Using water or other liquid cool-

ants may result in electrocution or shock.

Only use Bosch or Bosch licensed X-Lock

accessories. Incompatible accessories

may not clamp properly resulting in per-

sonal injury and/or property damage.

Conﬁrm proper clamping by ensuring

that top of the accessory ﬂange surface

is not above the top of the accessory

height gage. Accessories that are above

the accessory height gage may not be

clamped properly and separate from the

tool causing personal injury and/or prop-

erty damage.

Always inspect accessory mount and ac-

cessory clamping ﬂange before use. Do

not use the tool or accessory if the ac-

cessory mount or accessory is damaged

or deformed. Accessories that are not

clamped properly may cause personal in-

jury and/or property damage.

Check for presence or buildup of foreign

material on tool and accessory clamping

surfaces and remove before use. Unwant-

ed material can cause incomplete clamp-

ing and may cause personal injury and/or

property damage.

Never actuate X-Lock Release Lever while

accessory is moving. Make sure that the

accessory has come to a complete stop

before removing the accessory. Releasing

accessory while still spinning could cause

personal injury and/or property damage.

▶ Kickback and Related Warnings

Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched

or snagged rotating wheel, backing pad,

brush or any other accessory. Pinching or

snagging causes rapid stalling of the rotat-

ing accessory which in turn causes the un-

controlled power tool to be forced in the

direction opposite of the accessory’s rota-

tion at the point of the binding.

For example, if an abrasive wheel is

snagged or pinched by the workpiece, the

edge of the wheel that is entering into the

pinch point can dig into the surface of the

material causing the wheel to climb out

or kickout. The wheel may either jump to-

ward or away from the operator, depend-

ing on direction of the wheel’s movement

at the point of pinching. Abrasive wheels

may also break under these conditions.

Kickback is the result of power tool misuse

and/or incorrect operating procedures or

conditions and can be avoided by taking

proper precautions as given below.

Maintain a ﬁrm grip on the power tool

and position your body and arm to allow

you to resist kickback forces. Always use

auxiliary handle, if provided, for maxi-

mum control over kickback or torque re-

action during start-up. The operator can

control torque reactions or kickback forc-

es, if proper precautions are taken.

Never place your hand near the rotating

accessory. Accessory may kickback over

your hand.

Do not position your body in the area

where power tool will move if kickback

occurs. Kickback will propel the tool in di-

rection opposite to the wheel’s movement

at the point of snagging.

Use special care when working corners,

sharp edges etc. Avoid bouncing and snag-

ging the accessory. Corners, sharp edges

or bouncing have a tendency to snag the

rotating accessory and cause loss of con-

trol or kickback.

Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving

blade or toothed saw blade. Such blades

create frequent kickback and loss of con-

trol.

Power Tool-Specific Safety Warnings

▶ Safety Warnings Speciﬁc

for Grinding and Abrasive

Cutting-Oﬀ Operations

Use only wheel types that are recom-

mended for your power tool and the

speciﬁc guard designed for the selected

wheel. Wheels for which the power tool

was not designed cannot be adequately

guarded and are unsafe.

The grinding surface of centre depressed

wheels must be mounted below the plane

of the guard lip. An improperly mounted

wheel that projects through the plane of

the guard lip cannot be adequately pro-

tected.

The guard must be securely attached to

the power tool and positioned for maxi-

mum safety, so the least amount of wheel

is exposed towards the operator. The

guard helps to protect operator from bro-

ken wheel fragments and accidental con-

tact with wheel.

Wheels must be used only for recom-

mended applications. For example: do

not grind with the side of cut-oﬀ wheel.

Abrasive cut-oﬀ wheels are intended for

peripheral grinding, side forces applied to

these wheels may cause them to shatter.

Always use undamaged wheel ﬂanges

that are of correct size and shape for

your selected wheel. Proper wheel ﬂang-

es support the wheel thus reducing the

possibility of wheel breakage. Flanges for

cut-oﬀ wheels may be diﬀerent from grind-

ing wheel ﬂanges.

Do not use worn down wheels from larg-

er power tools. Wheel intended for larger

power tool is not suitable for the higher

speed of a smaller tool and may burst.

▶ Additional Safety Warnings

Speciﬁc for Abrasive

Cutting-Oﬀ Operations

Do not “jam” the cut-oﬀ wheel or apply

excessive pressure. Do not attempt to

make an excessive depth of cut. Over-

stressing the wheel increases the loading

and susceptibility to twisting or binding of

the wheel in the cut and the possibility of

kickback or wheel breakage.

Do not position your body in line with

and behind the rotating wheel. When the

wheel, at the point of operation, is moving

away from your body, the possible kick-

back may propel the spinning wheel and

the power tool directly at you.

When wheel is binding or when inter-

rupting a cut for any reason, switch oﬀ

the power tool and hold the power tool

motionless until the wheel comes to a

complete stop. Never attempt to remove

the cut-oﬀ wheel from the cut while the

wheel is in motion otherwise kickback

may occur. Investigate and take correc-

tive action to eliminate the cause of wheel

binding.

Do not restart the cutting operation in

the workpiece. Let the wheel reach full

speed and carefully reenter the cut. The

wheel may bind, walk up or kickback if the

power tool is restarted in the workpiece.

Support panels or any oversized work-

piece to minimize the risk of wheel pinch-

ing and kickback. Large workpieces tend

to sag under their own weight. Supports

must be placed under the workpiece near

the line of cut and near the edge of the

workpiece on both sides of the wheel.

Use extra caution when making a “pocket

cut” into existing walls or other blind ar-

eas. The protruding wheel may cut gas or

water pipes, electrical wiring or objects

that can cause kickback.

Do not use type 1 abrasive wheels de-

signed for straight grinding.

Do not attempt to cut large stock or

sheets of metal as this machine is not de-

signed to be a dedicated cut-oﬀ machine.

▶ Safety Warnings Speciﬁc for

Sanding Operations

Do not use excessively oversized sand-

ing disc paper. Follow manufacturer’s

recommendations, when selecting sand-

ing paper. Larger sanding paper extending

beyond the sanding pad presents a lacera-

tion hazard and may cause snagging, tear-

ing of the disc or kickback.

160992A4FG 06-19 GWX10.indd 7 6/3/19 10:33 AM

-8-

Additional Safety Warnings

Do not use AC only rated tools with a DC

power supply. While the tool may appear

to work, the electrical components of the

AC rated tool are likely to fail and create a

hazard to the operator.

Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil

and grease. Slippery hands cannot safely

control the power tool.

Use clamps or other practical way to se-

cure and support the workpiece to a sta-

ble platform. Holding the work by hand or

against your body is unstable and may lead

to loss of control.

Develop a periodic maintenance sched-

ule for your tool. When cleaning a tool be

careful not to disassemble any portion

of the tool since internal wires may be

misplaced or pinched or safety guard re-

turn springs may be improperly mounted.

Certain cleaning agents such as gasoline,

carbon tetrachloride, ammonia, etc. may

damage plastic parts.

Do not use vacuum or other dust collec-

tion system when cutting metal. Sparks

from metal cutting can cause ﬁre in the

collector.

Some dust created by

power sanding, sawing,

grinding, drilling, and other construction

activities contains chemicals known to

cause cancer, birth defects or other re-

productive harm. Some examples of

these chemicals are:

• Lead from lead-based paints,

• Crystalline silica from bricks and ce-

ment and other masonry products, and

• Arsenic and chromium from chemically-

treated lumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies, de-

pending 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 special-

ly designed to ﬁlter out microscopic par-

ticles.

▶ Safety Warnings Speciﬁc for

Wire Brushing Operations

Be aware that wire bristles are thrown

by the brush even during ordinary opera-

tion. Do not overstress the wires by ap-

plying excessive load to the brush. The

wire bristles can easily penetrate light

clothing and/or skin.

If the use of a guard is recommended for

wire brushing, do not allow any interfer-

ence of the wire wheel or brush with the

guard. Wire wheel or brush may expand in

diameter due to work load and centrifugal

forces.

The X-Lock system is a combination of

patented tool mount and accessory de-

signs that provide the operator with fast

accessory changes. Available on select

Bosch angle grinders, X-Lock allows tool

free installation and removal of grinder ac-

cessories (grinding, cut-oﬀ wheels, wire

brushes, sanding discs, etc.). The X-Lock

system is a replacement for the traditional

method of attaching grinder accessories.

Traditional grinders have 5/ 8”-11 thread-

ed spindles that require a nut and backing

ﬂange to hold the accessory in place. To

replace an accessory, a wrench is used to

loosen or tighten the nut. X-Lock equipped

grinders have a tool free interface system,

eliminating the spindle, backing ﬂange and

lock nut.

The X-Lock interface has a tool component

– X-Lock Accessory Mount, and an acces-

sory component – typically an Accessory

X-Lock Mounting Hub. The two compo-

nents have keyed alignment contours,

which help to ensure correct assembly of

accessory to tool.

The X-Lock Accessory Mount consists of

a round base, clamping height gages and

locking mechanism, which activates the

clamping tabs. X-Lock equipped grind-

ers can only use X-Lock accessories since

the specially designed X-Lock Mounting

Hub matches the contours of the X-Lock

Accessory Mount on the tool (See ﬁgure

3). However, select X-Lock accessories are

backward compatible with the traditional

threaded spindle design.

X-Lock Accessory Mount on the grinder

requires alignment of the mounting hub

with the accessory mounting mechanism.

Once the Accessory X-Lock Mounting Hub

is aligned, and pressed against the base of

the X-Lock Accessory Mount, the locking

mechanism is activated. This causes the

two opposing clamping tabs to lock the ac-

cessory to the grinder. An audible ‘click’ in

combination with the alignment of the ﬂat

surface of the Accessory X-Lock Mount-

ing hub with the Clamping Height Gages

means the accessory is ﬁrmly attached to

the tool. To remove the accessory, a lever

on the grinder gearhead is actuated which

will release the locking tabs, allowing the

accessory to be detached from the tool.

Assembly

Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove the bat-

tery pack, if detachable, from the power tool before making any

adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety

measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

▶ Installing Side Handle

The side handle is used to control and bal-

ance the tool.

Securely thread handle into either side of

gear housing, depending on personal pref-

erence, comfort, and operation being per-

formed (Fig. 5).

The handle should always be installed

onto the guard protected side of the tool,

see ﬁgure 7. Use the side handle for safe

control and ease of operation.

▶ Hand Shield

The hand shield is to be used with back-

ing pads, sanding discs, and wire brushes

to keep ﬁngers and hand away from work

surface, sharp edges, burrs and debris.

When using the hand shield, insert side

handle through hole in shield and then

thread into housing (Fig. 5). Ensure that

hand shield is positioned between hand

and backing pad, sanding disc or wire

brush.

mount so arrows on guard and collar

mount align (Fig. 6).

3. Rotate wheel guard clockwise 90º until

guard clicks in place.

4. Adjust guard by depressing guard re-

lease button and rotate to desired

position. Always position wheel guard

between operator and work piece

and direct sparks away from operator

(Fig. 7).

5. Allow guard release button to click in

place.

▶ Mounting and Removing

X-Lock Accessories

Only use Bosch or

Bosch licensed X-LOCK

accessories. Incompatible accessories

may not clamp properly resulting in per-

sonal injury and/or property damage.

Conﬁrm proper clamp-

ing by ensuring that top

of the accessory X-Lock mounting hub

surface is not above the top of the clamp-

ing height gage. Accessories that are

above the clamping height gage may not

be ﬁxed properly and separate from the

the tool causing personal injury and/or

property damage.

Always inspect acces-

sory mount and acces-

sory clamping ﬂange before use. Do not

use the tool or accessory if the accessory

mount or accessory is damaged or de-

formed. Accessories that are not clamped

properly may cause personal injury and/or

property damage.

Check for presence or

buildup of foreign mate-

rial on clamping surfaces and remove be-

fore use. Unwanted material can cause in-

complete clamping and may cause

personal injury and/or property damage.

Never actuate X-Lock

Release Lever while ac-

cessory is moving. Make sure that the ac-

cessory has come to a complete stop be-

fore removing the accessory. Releasing

accessory while still spinning could cause

personal injury and/or property damage.

Verify that the accessory and the X-Lock

Accessory Mount are not deformed and

are free from dirt. If necessary, clean the

area around the two X-Lock Clamping

Tabs.

Verify that both X-Lock Clamping Tabs are

open (see Fig. 8) before ﬁtting the X-Lock

accessory.

▼ Mounting accessory to the tool

1. Place the accessory on the X-Lock Ac-

cessory Mount, by aligning the align-

ment contours of the Accessory X-Lock

Mounting Hub with the X-Lock Acces-

sory Mount on the grinder (Fig. 8).

2. Push the accessory into the X-Lock Ac-

cessory Mount. The accessory audibly

clicks as the Clamping Tabs lock into

place (Fig. 9).

3. Check that the edge of the Accessory

X-Lock Mounting Hub is correctly en-

gaged in the slots of the X-Lock Clamp-

ing Tabs (Fig. 10). If the top surface of

the Accessory X-Lock Mounting Hub is

higher than the Clamping Height Gage

(located on each side of the X-Lock Ac-

cessory Mount), the X-Lock accessory

must not be used until this condition

is eliminated by cleaning the X-Lock

Accessory Mount or replacing the ac-

cessory.

▼ Removing accessories

Never actuate X-Lock

Release Lever while ac-

cessory is moving. Make sure that the ac-

cessory has come to a complete stop be-

fore removing the accessory. Releasing

accessory while still spinning could cause

personal injury and/or property damage.

Do not touch grinding

and cutting discs until

they have cooled down. The discs can be-

come very hot while working.

Do not allow accesso-

ries to fall uncontrolla-

bly after release. Falling accessories can

become damaged and may cause personal

injury and/or property damage.

Do not use a damaged

accessory. Before each

use inspect the accessory such as abra-

sive wheels for chips and cracks, backing

pad for cracks, tear or excess wear, wire

brush for loose or cracked wires. If power

tool or accessory is dropped, inspect for

damage or install an undamaged accesso-

ry. After inspecting and installing an acces-

sory, position yourself and bystanders

away from the plane of the rotating acces-

sory and run the power tool at maximum

no-load speed for one minute. Damaged

accessories will normally break apart dur-

ing this test time.

Before removing the accessory: Make sure

that the power tool has come to a com-

plete stop and is disconnected from pow-

er.

1. Orient the tool to prevent the accesso-

ry from being dropped during release.

2. Open the X-Lock Release Lever (Fig. 11):

(A) Press on the backside of the lever.

(B) Lift the front-side of the lever.

3. Remove the accessory from the tool

with care, preventing it from being

dropped.
