Assembly
▶ Mounting and Removing
X-Lock Accessories
Only use Bosch or
Bosch licensed X-LOCK
accessories. Incompatible accessory
mounting features may affect clamping of
accessory and may result in personal inju-
ry and/or property damage.
Confirm proper clamp-
ing by ensuring that top
of the accessory X-Lock mounting hub
surface is not above the top of the clamp-
ing height gage. Accessories that are
above the clamping height gage may not
be fixed properly and separate from the
the tool causing personal injury and/or
property damage.
Always inspect acces-
sory mount and acces-
sory clamping flange before use. Do not
use the tool or accessory if the accessory
mount or accessory is damaged or de-
formed. Accessories that are not clamped
properly may cause personal injury and/or
property damage.
Check for presence or
buildup of foreign mate-
rial on clamping surfaces and remove be-
fore use. Unwanted material can cause in-
complete clamping and may cause
personal injury and/or property damage.
Never actuate X-Lock
Release Lever while ac-
cessory is moving. Make sure that the ac-
cessory has come to a complete stop be-
fore removing the accessory. Ejecting
accessory while still spinning could cause
personal injury and/or property damage.
Verify that the accessory and the X-Lock
Accessory Mount are not deformed and
are free from dirt. If necessary, clean the
area around the two X-Lock Clamping
Tabs.
Verify that both X-Lock Clamping Tabs are
open (see Fig. 7) before fitting the X-Lock
accessory.
▼ Mounting accessory to the tool
1. Place the accessory on the X-Lock Ac-
cessory Mount, by aligning the shape
of the Accessory X-Lock Mounting Hub
with the X-Lock Accessory Mount on
the grinder (Fig. 7).
2. Push the accessory into the X-Lock Ac-
cessory Mount. The accessory audibly
clicks as the Clamping Tabs lock into
place (Fig. 8).
3. Check that the edge of the Accessory
X-Lock Mounting Hub is correctly en-
gaged in the slots of the X-Lock Clamp-
ing Tabs (Fig. 9). If the top surface of
the Accessory X-Lock Mounting Hub is
higher than the “V” shaped Clamping
Height Gage (located on each side of
the X-Lock Accessory Mount), the X-
