Mounting the Length Stop and Workpiece Support
(see figures B1–B2)
– Screw the length stop 6 to the workpiece support 8 with
carriage bolt M6 x 46 and locking knob 7.
– Insert the workpiece support 8 into the table extension 10.
– Tighten the locking knob 9 to lock the workpiece support.
– Repeat the worksteps with the second workpiece support.
Preparing the Saw Stand
Preparing the Attachment Sets (see figures C1–C3)
– Place both attachment sets 1 on the saw stand in such a
manner that the labelling can be read.
– Hand-tighten both locking knobs 5.
– Place the retaining adapters 2 with the flat side facing
upward on both attachment sets and move them apart so
that the fastening holes 15 are aligned.
– Guide two assembly-sliding plates 16 each (perpendicu-
lar, with the flat side facing upward) from the rear into the
guide compartment of the attachment sets 1.
Move the assembly-sliding plates apart so that they are
aligned with the fastening holes 15.
– Hand-tighten the attachment sets and retaining adapters
with the washers and hexagon bolts from fastening kit 12.
– Afterwards, firmly tighten both locking knobs 5 of the at-
tachment sets.
Fastening the Power Tool to the Attachment Sets
(see figures D1–D3)
– Position the power tool in the transport position. Notes on
the transport position are given in the operating instruc-
tions of the respective power tool.
– Position the power tool on the front retaining adapter in
such a manner that the front mounting holes on the power
tool are brought into alignment with the slots of the retain-
ing adapter.
– Screw the front retaining adapter and the power tool to-
gether with the hexagon bolts, washers and wing nuts from
the fastening kit 13.
– Position the rear retaining adapter in such a manner that
the rear mounting holes on the power tool are brought into
alignment with the slots of the retaining adapter.
– Screw the rear retaining adapter and the power tool to-
gether with the hexagon bolts, washers and wing nuts from
the fastening kit 13.
– Align the retaining adapters 2 uniformly.
The imprinted scale aides in adjusting the same clearance
on both sides.
– Finally, firmly tighten all screws of fastening kit 12 (retain-
ing adapter) and all wing nuts of fastening kit 13 (power
tool).
Operation
Working Advice
Do not overload the saw stand. Always observe the maximum
carrying capacity of the saw stand and the two table exten-
sions.
Always hold the workpiece firmly, especially the longer and
more heavy section. After cutting through the workpiece, the
centre of gravity may become dislocated in such an unfavour-
able manner that the saw stand tips over.
If possible, always place the workpiece on one or both work-
piece supports.
Extending the Saw Stand (see figures F1 – F2)
Long workpieces must be underlaid or supported at their free
end.
– Place your long workpiece onto the saw table of the power
tool.
– Loosen locking knob 17 and pull the table extension 10 out
to the desired clearance.
Due to locking pin 11, the table extension can only be
pulled out to the stop.
– Retighten the locking knobs again.
– Loosen locking knob 9 and adjust the height of the work-
piece support 8 so that the workpiece rests level.
The workpiece must be positioned level on the power
tool’s saw table.
– Retighten the locking knobs again.
Sawing Workpieces of the Same Length
(see figure G)
The material stop 6 can be used for easily sawing workpieces
to the same length.
– Adjust the desired workpiece length. (see figures F1 – F2)
– Loosen locking knob 7 and position the length stop 6 to the
desired clearance to the saw blade of the power tool.
– Retighten the locking knobs again.
Adjusting the Attachment-set Bracket
(see figure H)
After intensive use of the saw stand, the bracket that locks the
attachment set 1 to the saw table via the the locking knob 5
may possibly require readjustment.
– Remove the power tool from the attachment sets.
– Turn the attachment set upside down.
– When the attachment set cannot be locked to the saw
stand despite firmly tightening the locking knob, screw the
adjustment screw 18 in clockwise direction.
When the attachment set does not fit onto both rails (front
and rear) of the saw stand at the same time, screw the ad-
justment screw 18 in anticlockwise direction.
– Check the firm and correct seating of the attachment set
and repeat the adjustment, if required.
– Repeat the worksteps with the second attachment set.
Maintenance and Service
Maintenance
If the saw stand should fail despite the care taken in manufac-
ture and testing, repair should be carried out by an authorised
customer services agent for Bosch power tools.
In all correspondence and spare parts orders, please always
include the 10-digit article number given on the type plate of
