An estimation of the level of exposure to vibra-
tion should also take into account the times
when the tool is switched off or when it is run-
ning but not actually doing the job. This may sig-
nificantly reduce the exposure level over the to-
tal working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect
the operator from the effects of vibration such
as: maintain the tool and the accessories, keep
the hands warm, organisation of work patterns.

Assembly
Inserting a Router Bit (see figure A)
f
Before any work on the machine itself, pull
the mains plug.
f
It is recommended to wear protective
gloves when inserting or replacing router
bits.
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.

of the router bit must be immersed at least
20 mm into the collet.
– Tighten the tightening nut
23
with the open-
end spanner

up again.
f
Do not insert a router bit with a diameter
larger than 50 mm when the guide bushing
is not mounted.
Such router bits do not fit
through the base plate.
f
Do not tighten the tightening nut of the col-
let without a router bit inserted.
Otherwise
the collet can be damaged.
Dust/Chip Extraction (see figure B)
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.
