Bosch Power Tools

Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the 
materials to be worked.



Prevent dust accumulation at the workplace. 

Dusts can 

easily ignite.

Mounting the Extraction Adapter (see figure B)

Attach the extraction adapter 

25

 onto the sawdust ejector 

15

until it latches. A vacuum hose with a diameter of 35 mm can 
be connected to the extraction adapter 

25

.



The extraction adapter may not be mounted when no 
external dust extraction is connected. 

Otherwise the ex-

traction channel can become clogged.



Do not connect a dust bag to the extraction adapter. 

Otherwise the extraction system can become clogged.

To ensure optimum extraction, the extraction adapter 

25

must be cleaned regularly.

External Dust Extraction

Connect the vacuum hose 

32

 to a vacuum cleaner (accesso-

ry). An overview for connecting to various vacuum cleaners 
can be found at the end of this manual.

The machine can be plugged directly into the receptacle of a 
Bosch all-purpose vacuum cleaner with remote starting con-
trol. The vacuum cleaner starts automatically when the ma-
chine is switched on.

The vacuum cleaner must be suitable for the material being 
worked.

When vacuuming dry dust that is especially detrimental to 
health or carcinogenic, use a special vacuum cleaner.

Operation

Operating Modes



Before any work on the machine itself, pull the mains 
plug.

Adjusting the Cutting Depth (see figure C)



Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of the work-
piece. 

Less than a full tooth of the blade teeth should be 

visible below the workpiece.

Loosen the clamping lever 

26

. For a smaller cutting depth, 

pull the saw away from the base plate 

13

; for a larger cutting 

depth, push the saw toward the base plate 

13

. Adjust the de-

sired cutting depth at the cutting-depth scale. Tighten the 
clamping lever 

26

 again.

If the cutting depth cannot be fully adjusted after loosening 
clamping lever 

26

, pull clamping lever 

26

 away from the saw 

and swivel it downward. Release the clamping lever 

26

 again. 

Repeat this procedure until the requested cutting depth can 
be adjusted.

If the cutting depth cannot be sufficiently locked after tighten-
ing clamping lever 

26

, pull clamping lever 

26

 away from the 

saw and swivel it upward. Release the clamping lever 

26

again. Repeat this procedure until the cutting depth is locked.

Adjusting the Cutting Angle

It is best to place the machine on the face side of the blade 
guard 

16

.

Loosen clamping lever 

8

 and wing bolt 

28

. Tilt the saw side-

ward. Set the requested angle at the scale 

6

. Tighten clamp-

ing lever 

8

 and wing bolt 

28

 again.

Note: 

For bevel cuts, the cutting depth is smaller than the set-

ting indicated on the cutting-depth scale 

27

.

Cutting Marks

The 0 °  cutting mark (

9

) indicates the position of the saw 

blade for straight cuts. The 45 °  cutting mark (

10

) indicates 

the position of the saw blade for 45 °  cuts without using the 
guide rail.

Starting Operation



Observe correct mains voltage! The voltage of the pow-
er source must agree with the voltage specified on the 
nameplate of the machine. Power tools marked with 
230 V can also be operated with 220 V.

Switching On and Off

To 

start

 the machine, 

first

 push the lock-off button for the 

On/Off switch 

2

 and 

then

 press the On/Off switch 

1

 and keep 

it pressed.

To 

switch off

 the machine, release the On/Off switch 

1

.

Note: 

For safety reasons, the On/Off switch 

1

 cannot be 

locked; it must remain pressed during the entire operation.

To save energy, only switch the power tool on when using it.

Reduced starting current (GKS 65 GCE)

The electronic reduced starting current limits the power con-
sumption when switching the tool on and enables operation 
from a 13 ampere fuse.

Constant Electronic Control (GKS 65 GCE)

Constant electronic control holds the speed constant at no-
load and under load, and ensures uniform working perfor-
mance.

Temperature Dependent Overload Protection 
(GKS 65 GCE)

In case of overload, the machine switches off until the optimal 
operating-temperature range is reached again. Release the 
On/Off switch 

1

 and switch the machine on again to continue 

working.

Speed preselection (GKS 65 GCE)

The required speed can be preselected with the thumbwheel 

3

 (also while running).

The required speed depends on the saw blade being used and 
on the material being worked (see overview of saw blades at 
the end of these operating instructions).

Working Advice

Protect saw blades against impact and shock.

Guide the machine evenly and with light feed in the cutting di-
rection. Excessive feed significantly reduces the service life of 
the saw blade and can cause damage to the power tool.

Sawing performance and cutting quality depend essentially 
on the condition and the tooth form of the saw blade. There-
fore, use only sharp saw blades that are suited for the material 
to be worked.
