Adjusting the laser
Note: To test the laser function, the power tool must be connected to the power supply.
- While adjusting the laser (e.g. when moving the tool arm), never activate the on/off switch. Starting the power tool accidentally can lead to injuries.
- Bring the power tool into the work position.
- Turn the saw table (12) to the 0° detent (20). The lever (17) must be felt to engage in the detent.
To ensure precise cuts, the laser beams 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.
- Draw a straight cutting line on the workpiece.
- Slowly guide the tool arm downwards using the handle (7).
- 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 beams using the switch (6) without pressing the lock-off button (5).
The laser beams must be at the same distance from the marked cutting line on the workpiece left and right along the entire length, even if the tool arm is being guided downwards.
- Loosen the fastening screw (56) (by approx. one to two turns).
Do not unscrew the screw completely. - Move the laser housing (57) right or left until the laser beams no longer laterally deviate when the tool arm moves downwards.
- Hold the laser housing (57) in this position and retighten the fastening screw (56).
- Reattach the laser protection cap (8).
