Insert the templet guide and release the lock
lever to grip the templet guide in place.
Templet guides are used with a number of
special accessories, such as hinge templets and
dovetail fixtures which are listed in your
BOSCH catalog. In addition, special templets
are easily prepared for cutting repeated pat-
terns, special designs, inlays, and other
applications. A templet pattern may be made of
plywood, hardboard, metal or even plastic, and
the design can be cut with a router, jigsaw, or
other suitable cutting tool. Remember that the
pattern will have to be made to compensate for
the distance between the router bit and the
templet guide 24, as the final workpiece will
differ in size from the templet pattern 27 by that
amount, due to the cutter position.

Deluxe Router Guide
For routing operations such as grooving or
dadoing, it is often necessary to guide the tool
in a line parallel to a straight edge. One method
of obtaining a straight cut is to securely clamp
a board or other straightedge to the work sur-
face, and guide the edge of the router sub-base
along this path. It is best to keep the router in one
position as it is moved along the guide, as this
will produce the straightest cut.
The Bosch deluxe router guide is an accessory
that will guide the router parallel to a straight
edge or around a curved surface. The deluxe
router guide is supplied with two rods and a
series of wing nuts and screws to fasten the
guide and adjust its position relative to the bit.
With the guide installed and adjusted, the router
should be fed normally, keeping the guide in
contact with the edge of the workpiece at all
times. The deluxe router guide may also be
positioned under the router base for operations
where a limited amount of bit exposure is de-
sired.

The Bosch deluxe router guide includes a
fine-adjustment mechanism for extra precision,
and removable face plates for guiding the router
along straight or curved surfaces. For proper
operation, please refer to the instructions which
are included with this accessory.
Your router may be fitted with optional chip
extraction accessories, which are available from
your Bosch dealer. Chip extraction is most
effective on grooving, dadoing, and other flat-
surface operations where flying chips can be
controlled. It is less effective on edge forming
or when template guides are used as the vacuum
efficiency is greatly diminished in such cir-
cumstances.
WARNING!

Maintenance and Service
27
WARNING!
formed by unauthorized personnel may result
in misplacing of internal wires and components
which could cause serious hazard. We recom-
mend that all tool service be performed at a
Bosch Factory Service Center.
Your Bosch tool has been properly lubricated
and is ready for use. We recommend, that tools
with gears be regreased with a special gear
lubricant every time the brushes are changed.
The brushes and commutator in your Bosch
tool have been engineered for many hours of
dependable service. To maintain peak effi-
ciency of the motor, we recommend that every
two to six months the brushes be examined.
Only genuine Bosch replacement brushes spe-
cially designed for your tool should be used.
After about 300-400 hours of operation, or at
every second brush change, the bearings should
be replaced at a Bosch Factory Service Center.
Bearings which become noisy (due to heavy
load or very abrasive material cutting) should
be replaced at once to avoid overheating and
motor failure.
