Checking and adjusting the basic settings
To ensure precise cuts, the basic settings of the power tool must be checked and adjusted as necessary after intensive use.
Experience and suitable special tools are required for this.
A Bosch after-sales service point will handle this work quickly and reliably.
Adjusting the laser
Note: In order to test the laser function, the battery must be inserted.
- While adjusting the laser (e.g. when moving the tool arm), never activate the on/off switch. Accidental starting of the power tool can lead to injuries.
- Bring the power tool into the work position.
Checking (see figure L1)
- Draw a straight cutting line on the workpiece.
- Slowly guide the tool arm downwards using the handle (1).
- Position the workpiece so that the teeth of the saw blade line up with the cutting line.
- Hold the workpiece in this position and slowly guide the tool arm back up.
- Clamp the workpiece.
- Turn on the laser beam using the switch (26).
The laser beam must be flush with the cutting line on the workpiece along its entire length, even if the tool arm is guided downwards.
Setting (see figure L2)
- Turn the set screw (33) with a cross-headed screwdriver until the laser beam is parallel to the entire length of the cutting line on the workpiece.
One rotation anticlockwise moves the laser beam from left to right; one rotation clockwise moves the laser beam from right to left.
