Adjusting Bevel Angles (Saw Blade)
Adjusting the Bevel Angle Range from 0° to 45°
As a standard, bevel angles can be variably set in the range
from 0° to 45°.
– Lightly unscrew the locking knob 22 in anticlockwise direc-
tion.
– Set the standard bevel angle range (push lever 26 toward
the left).
– Turn rotary knob 20 until the indicator for bevel angle 21
indicates the requested bevel angle on scale 19.
– Tighten the locking knob 22 again.
Adjusting the Extended Bevel Angle Range –1.5° to
+46.5°
The additional bevel angle range of ±1.5° can be set for saw-
ing undercuts. This is used to prevent the formation of gaps
when joining bevel-cut workpieces.
Bevel-cut workpieces without under-
cut
Bevel-cut workpieces with undercut
– Lightly unscrew the locking knob 22 in anticlockwise direc-
tion.
– Lightly turn rotary knob 20 in anticlockwise direction away
from the 0° position.
– Set the extended bevel angle range (push lever 26 toward
the right).
– Turn rotary knob 20 until the indicator for bevel angle 21
indicates the requested bevel angle on scale 19.
– Tighten the locking knob 22 again.
Marking the Cutting Line (see figure M)
A laser beam indicates the saw blade cutting line. This allows
for exact positioning of the workpiece and the fence 36 for
sawing.
Before sawing, check if the cutting line is still indicated cor-
rectly (see "Adjusting the Laser", page 34). The laser beam,
as an example, can misadjust due to vibrations after intensive
use.
– Switch the laser beam on with switch 44.
– Align your mark on the workpiece along the laser beam.
Bosch Power Tools
Adjusting the Universal Guide
 For all cuts, firstly ensure that the saw blade cannot
touch or graze against the stops (guide rail 31 or fence
36 of the universal guide) or any other machine parts.
Depending on the operating mode, the universal guide 1 can
be used differently:
– as cross or angle stop when using as a pull push saw,
– as parallel guide when using as a table saw.
Using the Universal Guide as Cross or Angle Stop
(see figure N1)
– Mount the universal guide 1 left or right on the saw table 7
or the table extension 27. (see "Mounting the Universal
Guide", page 35)
Note: When sawing bevel angles, the universal guide
should be mounted to the right of the saw blade.
– Depending on the workpiece size and on the set bevel an-
gle, mount the fence 36 upright or flat to the universal
guide 1. (see "Mounting the Fence to the Universal Guide",
page 35)
– Adjust the desired mitre angle. (see "Adjusting Mitre An-
gles", page 36)
– Check if the fence 36 is out of the cutting range.
Loosen wing bolt 34 as required, move the fence 36 and
retighten wing bolt 34.
Note: To avoid jamming or slipping of the workpiece, the
clearance between saw blade 28 and fence 36 may not
exceed 15 mm (max.).
Using the Universal Guide as a Parallel Guide
(see figure N2)
– Mount the universal guide 1 left or right on the saw table 7
or the table extension 27. (see "Mounting the Universal
Guide", page 35)
Note: When sawing bevel angles, the universal guide
should be mounted to the right of the saw blade.
– Depending on the workpiece size and on the set bevel an-
gle, mount the fence 36 upright or flat to the universal
guide 1. (see "Mounting the Fence to the Universal Guide",
page 35)
Note: When sawing, workpieces can become jammed be-
tween the universal guide and the saw blade, be caught by
the rotating saw blade, and be thrown from the machine.
Therefore, adjust the fence 36 in such a manner that its
guiding end ends in the area between the saw blade centre
and the riving knife.
For this, loosen wing bolt 34, move the fence and retighten
the wing bolt again.
– Adjust a 0° mitre angle. (see "Adjusting Mitre Angles",
page 36)
– Loosen wing bolt 37 and move the guide rail 31 to the de-
sired clearance.
The scale 14 indicates the clearance between saw blade
and fence.
– Tighten wing bolt 37 again.
