Your saw is equipped with an automatic
electric brake which is designed to stop the
blade from spinning in about two seconds
after you release the trigger switch. It is useful
when making certain cuts in wood where a
coasting blade would result in a wide,
imprecise cut.
When electrical power is lost
due to blown fuse or other
causes, the motor will gradually slow down
and the braking action is initiated ONLY by the
release of the trigger switch.
The electric blade brake of your Bosch circular
saw has been designed for highest degree of
reliability, but unexpected circumstances such
as contamination on the commutator and
brushes or failure of motor’s components can
cause the brake not to activate. If this
condition occurs, turn the saw “ON” and
“OFF” four to five times without contacting the
workpiece. If the tool operates but the brake
does not consistently stop the blade in about 2
seconds, DO NOT use saw and have it
serviced immediately.
When the brushes reach a predetermined
service length due to normal wear, they will act
as current interrupters for electric power to the
saw. As the current is interrupted, the motor
will “coast” to a stop and will not operate until
brushes are replaced. The brushes MUST be
replaced as a set. Use only the special
“interrupter” brushes designed for this saw,
others may fail to function with the braking
action.
The brake action of this saw
is not intended as a safety
feature. Remember to let the saw blade come
to a complete stop before removing from the
workpiece. As always the guard system is your
best protection against unintentional contact
with a spinning saw blade. NEVER wedge
open or defeat the closing action of the lower
guard.
