Mount the router compass/guide-rail adapter 42 as shown in

the figure.

Fasten the guide rail 49 to the workpiece with suitable clamp-

ing devices, e. g. screw clamps. Place the machine with the

guide-rail adapter 42 mounted onto the guide rail.

Routing with Guide Bushing (see figures N–Q)

The guide bushing 53 enables template and pattern routing

on workpieces.

In order to use the guide bushing 53, the guide bushing adapt-

er 50 must be inserted into the guide plate 14 first.

Place the guide bushing adapter 50 from above onto the

guide plate 14 and tighten it firmly with the 2 fastening

screws 51. Pay attention that the release lever for the guide

bushing adapter 52 is freely movable.

Choose a suitable guide bushing, depending on the thickness

of the template or the pattern. Because of the projecting

height of the guide bushing, the template must have a mini-

mum thickness of 8 mm.

Actuate the release lever 52 and insert the guide bushing 53

from below into the guide bushing adapter 50. Ensure that

the encoding keys clearly engage in the grooves of the guide

bushing.

Check the clearance from router bit centre and guide bushing

edge, see section “Centring the Base Plate”.

f Select a router bit with a diameter smaller than the in-

terior diameter of the guide bushing.

For routing with the guide bushing 53 proceed as follows:

– Note: Take into consideration that for routing work with

the non-plunge base 3, the router bit 18 always protrudes

out of the base plate 13. Do not damage the template or

the workpiece.

– Guide the switched on power tool with the guide bushing

toward the template.

– When using the plunge base 2: Press the release lever for

plunge action 7 down and slowly guide the router down un-

til the set depth-of-cut is reached. Let go of release lever 7

again to lock this plunging depth.

– Guide the switched on power tool with the protruding

guide bushing alongside the template applying lateral

pressure.

Centring the Base Plate (see figure R)

To ensure that the distance from router bit centre and guide

bushing edge is uniform, the guide bushing and the guide

plate can be adjusted to each other, if required.

– When using the plunge base 2: Press the release lever for

plunge action 7 down and guide the router toward the base

plate to the stop. Let go of release lever 7

again to lock this

plunging depth.

– Loosen fastening screws 54 approx. 2 turns, so that guide

plate 14 can move freely.

– Insert the centring pin 55 into the tool holder as shown in

the figure. Hand-tighten the tightening nut so that the cen-

tring pin can still be moved freely.

– Align the centring pin 55 and the guide bushing 53 to each

other by slightly moving the guide plate 14.

– Retighten the fastening screws 54 again.

– Remove the centring pin 55 from the tool holder.

– When using the plunge base 2: Press the release lever for

plunge action 7 and guide the router back to the upper-

most position.

Operation with Router Table (see figure S)

The non-plunge base 3 can be used with a suitable router ta-

ble. To install the router, remove the guide plate 14 and fas-

ten the non-plunge base 3 to the router table with the fasten-

ing screws 56.

f For mounting of the non-plunge base, please observe

the operating instructions of your router table. If neces-

sary, matching holes must be drilled into the router table in

order to mount the non-plunge base.

For fine adjustment of the depth-of-cut, it is best to use the ex-

tension 58 or the specialty Allen key 57.

Routing with Extraction Hood (see figures T–U)

For routing edges, the extraction hood 59 can additionally be

used.

– Fasten the extraction hood 59 with the 2 fastening screws

60 to the base plate 13. The extraction hood 59 can be fas-

tened in 3 different positions, as shown in the figure.

– Remove the extraction hood again for routing smooth

plane surfaces.

Maintenance and Service

Maintenance and Cleaning

f Before any work on the machine itself, pull the mains

plug.

f For safe and proper working, always keep the machine

and ventilation slots clean.

f In extreme conditions, always use dust extraction as

far as possible. Blow out ventilation slots frequently

and install a residual current device (RCD). When work-

ing metals, conductive dust can settle in the interior of the

power tool. The total insulation of the power tool can be im-

paired.

If the replacement of the supply cord is necessary, this has to

be done by Bosch or an authorized Bosch service agent in or-

der to avoid a safety hazard.

If the machine should fail despite the care taken in manufac-

turing and testing procedures, repair should be carried out by

an after-sales service centre for Bosch power tools.

In all correspondence and spare parts order, please always in-

clude the 10-digit article number given on the type plate of

the machine.
