English | 27 Bosch Power Tools1 609 92A 15R | (26.1.15) English Safety Notes General Power Tool Safety Warnings When using electric tools basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and personal injury in- cluding the following. Read all these instructions before attempting to operate this product and save these instructions. 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. Cluttered 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, radiators, 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 and moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an exten- sion cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock. If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoid- able, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD 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 op- erating power tools may result in serious personal injury. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection 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 battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or en- ergising power tools that have the switch on invites acci- dents. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a ro- tating part of the power tool may result in personal injury. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewel- lery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts. If devices are provided for the connection of dust ex- traction and collection facilities, ensure these are con- nected and properly used. Use of dust collection can re- duce dust-related hazards. Power tool use and care Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed. 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 adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures 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 misalignment or bind- ing of moving parts, breakage 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. Properly 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 ac- cordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation. Service Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair per- son using only identical replacement parts. This will en- sure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

28 | English 1 609 92A 15R | (26.1.15)Bosch Power Tools Safety Warnings for Table Saws 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. Take care that the blade guard operates properly and can move freely. Always adjust the blade guard in such a manner that it faces loosely against the workpiece when sawing. Never clamp the blade guard when it is open. Keep hands away from the cutting area while the ma- chine is running. Danger of injury when coming in contact with the saw blade. Never reach behind the saw blade in order to hold the workpiece, remove saw dust/wood chips or for any oth- er reason. The clearance of your hand to the rotating saw blade is too small. Guide the workpiece against the saw blade only when the machine is switched on. Otherwise there is damage of kickback, when the saw blade becomes wedged in the workpiece. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease. Greasy, oily handles are slippery causing loss of control. 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. Only saw one workpiece at a time. Workpieces placed on top or aside of each other can cause the saw blade to jam or the workpieces to move against each other while saw- ing. Always use the parallel guide or the angle guide. This improves the cutting accuracy and reduces the possibility of saw blade binding. Use the machine for grooving or rebating only with an appropriately suitable protective device (e. g. a tunnel blade guard). Do not use the machine for cutting slots (stopped grooves). Use the machine only for cutting the materials listed under Intended Use. Otherwise, the machine can be sub- ject to overload. 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. 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. 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.Do not use high speed steel (HSS) saw blades. Such saw blades can easily break. Do not touch the saw blade after working before it has cooled. The saw blade becomes very hot while working. Keep your workplace clean. Blends of materials are par- ticularly dangerous. Dust from light alloys can burn or ex- plode. Never operate the machine without the insert plate. Replace a defective insert plate. Without flawless insert plates, injuries are possible from the saw blade. 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. 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. Never leave the machine before it has come to a com- plete stop. Cutting tools that are still running can cause in- juries. 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. 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. Symbols The following symbols can be important for the operation of your power tool. Please memorise the symbols and their meanings. The correct interpretation of the symbols helps you operate the power tool better and more secure. Symbols and their meaning Keep hands away from the cutting area while the machine is running. Danger of injury when coming in contact with the saw blade. Wear a dust respirator. OBJ_BUCH-1325-003.book Page 28 Monday, January 26, 2015 1:18 PM

For improved placement of long workpieces, the angle stop can be extended with profile rail 28. – If required, mount the profile rail to the angle stop with fas- tening kit 40. Dust/Chip Extraction Dusts from materials such as lead-containing coatings, some wood types, minerals and metal can be harmful to one’s health. Touching or breathing-in the dusts can cause allergic reactions and/or lead to respiratory infections 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 contain- ing asbestos may only be worked by specialists. – Always use dust extraction. – Provide for good ventilation of the working place. – It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class respirator. Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the mate- rials to be worked. The dust/chip extraction can be blocked by dust, chips or workpiece fragments. – Switch the machine off and pull the mains plug from the socket outlet. – Wait until the saw blade has come to a complete stop. – Determine the cause of the blockage and correct it. Prevent dust accumulation at the workplace. Dusts can easily ignite. To avoid the danger of fire when sawing aluminium, empty the sawdust ejector and do not work with dust/chip extraction. Emptying the Chip Ejector (see figure F) The sawdust ejector 31 can be emptied for removal of work- piece fragments and large chips. – Switch the machine off and pull the mains plug from the socket outlet. – Wait until the saw blade has come to a complete stop. – Loosen fastening screw 41 with hex key 21. – Pull out chip ejector 31 and remove workpiece fragments and chips. – Mount the chip ejector to the power tool again. External Dust Extraction (see figure G) To connect a vacuum cleaner to the sawdust ejector 31, use the supplied extraction adapter 32. – Firmly attach the extraction adapter 32 and the vacuum hose. – Additionally, a dust extraction system can be connected with the Y-adapter (accessory) to vacuum connection 7, to increase the extraction performance. The vacuum cleaner must be suitable for the material being worked. When vacuuming dry dust that is especially detrimental to health or carcinogenic, use a special vacuum cleaner. Stationary or Flexible Mounting To ensure safe handling, the machine must be mounted on a level and stable surface (e. g., workbench) prior to using. Mounting to a Working Surface (see figure H) – Fasten the power tool with suitable screw fasteners to the working surface. The mounting holes 12 serve for this pur- pose. Mounting to a Bosch Saw Stand (see figure I) With the height-adjustable legs, Bosch saw stands (e. g. GTA 60 W, GTA 600) provide firm support for the power tool on any surface. Read all safety warnings and instructions included with the worktable. Failure to observe safety warnings and in- structions can lead to electrical shock, fire and/or cause serious injuries. Assemble the worktable properly before mounting the power tool. Perfect assembly is important in order to pre- vent the risk of collapsing. – Mount the power tool in transport position on the saw stand. Changing the Saw Blade (see figures J1 – J4) Before any work on the machine itself, pull the mains plug. When mounting the saw blade, wear protective gloves. Danger of injury when touching the saw blade. Use only saw blades whose maximum permitted speed is higher than the no-load speed of the power tool. Use only saw blades that correspond with the characteristic data given in these operation instructions and that are tested and marked in accordance with EN 847-1. Use only saw blades recommended by the tool manufacturer and suitable for sawing the materials to be cut. Removing the Saw Blade – Using a screwdriver, raise the insert plate 24 at the front and remove it from the tool basin. –Turn crank 19 clockwise to the stop, so that the saw blade 26 is in the highest possible position above the saw table. – Tilt the blade guard 6.x toward the rear to the stop. – Turn the clamping nut 42 with the ring spanner 22 (23 mm) and at the same time, pull the spindle lock lever 43 until it engages. – Keep the spindle lock lever pulled and unscrew the clamp- ing nut turning in anticlockwise direction. – Remove the clamping flange 44. – Remove the saw blade 26. Mounting the Saw Blade If required, clean all parts to be mounted prior to assembly. – Place the new saw blade onto the supporting flange 46 of the tool spindle 45. Note: Do not use saw blades that are too small. The clearance between saw blade and riving knife must not exceed 5 mm (max.). OBJ_BUCH-1325-003.book Page 32 Monday, January 26, 2015 1:18 PM
