Bosch Power Tools

Constant Electronic Control (GWS 1100 / GWS 1400)

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

Working Advice



Exercise caution when cutting slots in structural walls; 
see Section “Information on Structures”.



Clamp the workpiece if it does not remain stationary 
due to its own weight.



Do not strain the machine so heavily that it comes to a 
standstill.



After heavily straining the power tool, continue to run 
it at no-load for several minutes to cool down the acces-
sory.



Do not touch grinding and cutting discs before they 
have cooled down. 

The discs can become very hot while 

working.



Do not use the power tool with a cut-off stand.

Rough Grinding



Never use a cutting disc for roughing.

The best roughing results are achieved when setting the ma-
chine at an angle of 30 °  to 40 ° . Move the machine back and 
forth with moderate pressure. In this manner, the workpiece 
will not become too hot, does not discolour and no grooves 
are formed.

Flap Disc

With the flap disc (accessory), curved surfaces and profiles 
can be worked.

Flap discs have a considerably higher service life, lower noise 
levels and lower sanding temperatures than conventional 
sanding sheets.

Cutting Metal



For cutting with bonded abrasives, always use the pro-
tection guard for cutting 13.

When cutting, work with moderate feed, adapted to the mate-
rial being cut. Do not exert pressure onto the cutting disc, tilt 
or oscillate the machine.

Do not reduce the speed of running down cutting discs by ap-
plying sideward pressure.

The machine must al-
ways work in an up-
grinding motion. Other-
wise, the danger exists 
of it being pushed 

un-

controlled

 out of the 

cut.

When cutting profiles 
and square bar, it is best 
to start at the smallest 
cross section.

Cutting Stone



Provide for sufficient dust extraction when cutting 
stone.



Wear a dust respirator.



The machine may be used only for dry cutting/grinding.

For cutting stone, it is best to use a diamond cutting disc.

When using the cutting guide with dust extraction protection 
guard 

20

, the vacuum cleaner must be approved for vacuum-

ing masonry dust. Suitable vacuum cleaners are available 
from Bosch.

Switch on the machine 
and place the front part 
of the cutting guide on 
the workpiece. Slide the 
machine with moderate 
feed, adapted to the ma-
terial to be worked.

For cutting expecially 
hard material, e. g., con-
crete with high pebble 
content, the diamond 
cutting disc can over-
heat and become dam-
aged as a result. This is 

clearly indicated by circular sparking, rotating with the dia-
mond cutting disc.
In this case, interrupt the cutting process and allow the dia-
mond cutting disc to cool by running the machine for a short 
time at maximum speed with no load.

Noticeable decreasing work progress and circular sparking 
are indications of a diamond cutting disc that has become 
dull. Briefly cutting into abrasive material (e. g. lime-sand 
brick) can resharpen the disc again.

Information on Structures

Slots in structural walls are subject to the Standard DIN 1053 
Part 1, or country-specific regulations.
These regulations are to be observed under all circumstanc-
es. Before beginning work, consult the responsible structural 
engineer, architect or the construction supervisor.

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.



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.

Please store and handle the accessory(-ies) carefully.
