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.



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

Sawing Wood

The correct selection of the saw blade depends on the type 
and quality of the wood and whether lengthway or crossway 
cuts are required.

When cutting spruce lengthways, long spiral chips are 
formed.

Beech and oak dusts are especially detrimental to health. 
Therefore, work only with dust extraction.

Sawing Plastic (GKS 65 GCE)
Note: 

When sawing plastic, especially PVC, long spiral chips 

are formed that can be electrostatically charged. This can clog 
the sawdust ejector 

15

 and cause the retracting blade guard 

12

 to jam. It is best to work with dust extraction.

Guide the switched on power tool against the workpiece and 
carefully start the cut. Continue the cut with low feed and 
without interruption, so that the saw teeth do not gum up too 
quickly.

Sawing Non-ferrous Metals (GKS 65 GCE)
Note: 

Use only a sharp saw blade that is suitable for non-fer-

rous metals. This ensures a clean cut and prevents blade bind-
ing.

Guide the switched on power tool against the workpiece and 
carefully start the cut. Continue the cut with low feed and 
without interruption.

When sawing profiles, always begin the cut from the narrow 
side; when sawing U-profiles, never start the cut from the 
open side. Support long profiles in order to avoid blade bind-
ing and kickback of the power tool.

Sawing Light Building Materials (Materials with Mineral 
Content) (GKS 65 GCE)



When sawing light building materials, observe the stat-
utory provisions and the recommendations of the ma-
terial suppliers.

Light building materials may only be sawn dry and when ap-
plying dust extraction. Always work with the guide rail 

30

(accessory).

The vacuum cleaner must be approved for the extraction of 
masonry dust. Bosch provides suitable vacuum cleaners.

Sawing with Parallel Guide (see figure D)

The parallel guide 

11

 enables exact cuts along a workpiece 

edge and cutting strips of the same dimension.

Loosen wing bolt 

7

 and slide the scale of the parallel guide 

11

through the guide in the base plate 

13

. Adjust the desired cut-

ting width as the scale setting at the respective cutting mark 

9

or 

10

; see Section “Cutting Marks”. Tighten wing bolt 

7

 again.

Sawing with Auxiliary Guide (see figure E)

For sawing large workpieces or straight edges, a board or 
strip can be clamped to the workpiece as an auxiliary guide; 
the base plate of the circular saw can be guided alongside the 
auxiliary guide.

Sawing with Guide Rail (GKS 65 G / GKS 65 GCE) 
(see figure F)

The guide rail 

30

 is used to carry out straight cuts.

The rubber lip on the guide rail acts as a splinter guard; it pre-
vents fraying of the surface while sawing wooden materials. 
For this, the teeth of the saw blade must face directly against 
the rubber lip.

Prior to the very first cut, the rubber lip must be adapted with 
the guide rail 

30

 to the circular saw being used. For this, place 

the guide rail 

30

 over its complete length on a workpiece. Ad-

just a cutting depth of approx. 9 mm and the saw blade to a ze-
ro degree angle. Switch the circular saw on and guide it uni-
formly and with light feed in the cutting direction.

Two guide rails can be connected using the connection piece 

31

. Clamping is carried out with the four screws located in the 

connection piece.

Maintenance and Service

Maintenance and Cleaning



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



For safe and proper working, always keep the machine 
and ventilation slots clean.

The retracting blade guard must always be able to move freely 
and retract automatically. Therefore, always keep the area 
around the retracting blade guard clean. Remove dust and 
chips by blowing out with compressed air or with a brush.

Saw blades that are not coated can be protected against cor-
rosion with a thin coat of acid-free oil. Before use, the oil must 
be removed again, otherwise the wood will become soiled.

Resin and glue residue on the saw blade produces poor cuts. 
Therefore, clean the saw blade immediately after use.

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.
