It is recommended to wear protective
gloves when inserting or replacing router
bits.
Disassembling the Routing Base (see figure A)
Before a router bit can be inserted, the routing
base
2
must first be removed from the motor
unit
1
.
– Open the clamping lever
10
and turn the
routing base
2
so that the mark is in line
with the
symbol on the motor unit
1
.
– Pull the motor unit upward to the stop.
– Turn the motor unit in anticlockwise direc-
tion to the stop and pull it out of the routing
base.
Replacing the Collet (see figure B)
Depending on the routing tool being used, the
tightening nut with the collet
5
may need to be
replaced before inserting the router bit.
When the right collet for your router bit is al-
ready mounted, follow the work steps as de-
scribed under “Inserting a Router Bit”.
The collet
12
must have somewhat play when
seated in the tightening nut. The tightening nut
5
must assemble easily. Should the tightening
nut or collet be damaged, replace immediately.
– Push the spindle lock button
9
and keep it
pressed. If required, rotate the motor spindle
by hand until it locks. (see Fig. C1)
– Unscrew the tightening nut
5
with open-end
spanner
14
turning in anticlockwise direc-
tion.
– Release the spindle lock button.
– If required, clean all parts to be mounted pri-
or to assembling, using a soft brush or by
blowing out with compressed air.
– Start the new tightening nut on tool holder
13
.
– Hand-tighten the tightening nut.
f
Do not tighten the tightening nut of the col-
let without a router bit inserted.
Otherwise
the collet can be damaged.
Inserting a Router Bit (see figures C1–C2)
Depending on the application, router bits are
available in the most different designs and qual-
ities.
Router bits made of high speed steel (HSS)
are
suitable for the machining of soft materials, e. g.
softwood and plastic.
Carbide tipped router bits (HM)
are particular-
ly suitable for hard and abrasive materials, e. g.
hardwood and aluminium.
Original router bits from the extensive Bosch ac-
cessories program are available at your special-
ist shop.
Only use clean router bits that are in perfect
condition.
