Operation
Operating Modes
Before any work on the machine itself, pull
the mains plug.
Adjusting the Cutting Depth (see figure B)
Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of
the workpiece. Less than a full tooth of the
blade teeth should be visible below the work-
piece.
Loosen the clamping lever 24. For a smaller cut-
ting depth, pull the saw away from the base
plate 15; for a larger cutting depth, push the
saw toward the base plate 15. Adjust the de-
sired cutting depth at the cutting -depth scale.
Tighten the clamping lever 24 again.
The tightening tension of the clamping lever 24
can be readjusted. For this, unscrew the clamp-
ing lever 24, and screw it back again turned off-
set by at least 30° in anticlockwise direction.
Adjusting the Cutting Angle
It is best to place the machine on the face side
of the blade guard 17.
Loosen the wing bolts 8 and 16. Tilt the saw
sidewards. Adjust the desired measure on the
scale 7. Tighten the wing bolts 8 and 16 again.
Note: For bevel cuts, the cutting depth is small-
er than the setting indicated on the cutting-
depth scale 25.
Cutting Marks
45
0
The 0° cutting mark (11) indicates the position
of the saw blade for right-angled cuts. The 45°
cutting mark (10) indicates the position of the
saw blade for 45° cuts.
For precise cuts, position the circular saw
against the workpiece as shown in the figure. It
is best to carry out a trial cut.
Bosch Power Tools
Starting Operation
Observe correct mains voltage! The voltage
of the power 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 but-
ton for the On/Off switch 1 and then press the
On/Off switch 3 and keep it pressed.
To switch off the machine, release the On/Off
switch 3.
Note: For safety reasons, the On/Off switch 3
cannot be locked; it must remain pressed during
the entire operation.
Reduced starting current (PKS 54 CE/
PKS 66 CE)
The electronic reduced starting current limits
the power consumption when switching the tool
on and enables operation from a 13 ampere
fuse.
Constant Electronic Control (PKS 54 CE/
PKS 66 CE)
Constant electronic control holds the speed
constant at no-load and under load, and ensures
uniform working performance.
Temperature Dependent Overload Protection
(PKS 54 CE/PKS 66 CE)
In case of overload, the machine switches off
until the optimal operating-temperature range is
reached again. Release the On/Off switch 3 and
switch the machine on again to continue work-

Speed preselection (PKS 54 CE/PKS 66 CE)
The required speed can be preselected with the
thumbwheel 2 (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).
