Bosch Power Tools
When cutting, work with moderate feed, adapt-
ed to the material being cut. Do not exert pres-
sure onto the cutting disc, tilt or oscillate the
machine.
Do not reduce the speed of running down cut-
ting discs by applying sideward pressure.
The machine must
always work in an
up-grinding mo-
tion. Otherwise, the
danger exists of it
being pushed
un-
controlled
out of
the cut.
When cutting pro-
files and square
bar, it is best to
start at the smallest
cross section.
Cutting Stone
f
For cutting stone, always work with the cut-
ting guide with dust extraction protection
guard 21.
f
The machine may be used only for dry cut-
ting/grinding.
For cutting stone, it is best to use a diamond
cutting disc. As a safety measure against jam-
ming, the cutting guide with dust extraction pro-
tection guard
21
must be used.
Operate the machine only with dust extraction
and additionally wear a dust protection mask.
The vacuum cleaner must be approved for the
extraction of masonry dust. Bosch provides suit-
able vacuum cleaners.
Switch on the ma-
chine and place
the front part of
the cutting guide
on the workpiece.
Slide the machine
with moderate
feed, adapted to
the material to be
worked.
For cutting expecially hard material, e. g., con-
crete with high pebble content, the diamond
cutting disc can overheat and become damaged
as a result. This is clearly indicated by circular
sparking, rotating with the diamond cutting
disc.
In this case, interrupt the cutting process and al-
low the diamond cutting disc to cool by running
the machine for a short time at maximum speed
with no load.
Noticeable decreasing work progress and circu-
lar sparking are indications of a diamond cutting
disc that has become dull. Briefly cutting into
abrasive material (e. g. lime-sand brick) can re-
sharpen the disc again.
Information on Structures
Slots in structural walls are subject to the
Standard DIN 1053 Part 1, or country-specific
regulations.
These regulations are to be observed under all
circumstances. Before beginning work, consult
the responsible structural engineer, architect or
the construction supervisor.
Maintenance and Service
Maintenance and Cleaning
f
Before any work on the machine itself, pull
the mains plug.
f
For safe and proper working, always keep
the machine and ventilation slots clean.
f
In extreme working conditions, conductive
dust can accumulate in the interior of the
machine when working with metal. The pro-
tective insulation of the machine can be de-
graded. The use of a stationary extraction
system is recommended in such cases as
well as frequently blowing out the ventila-
tion slots and installing a residual current
device (RCD).
Please store and handle the accessory(-ies)
carefully.
