Cut Out Tool Safety Rules

Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by your hand or against the body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.
Always make sure the work surface is free from nails and other foreign objects. Cutting into a nail can cause the bit and the tool to jump and damage the bit.
Never hold the workpiece in one hand and the tool in the other hand when in use. Never place hands near or below cutting surface. Clamping the material and guiding the tool with both hands is safer.
Never lay workpiece on top of hard surfaces, like concrete, stone, etc… Protruding cutting bit may cause tool to jump.
Always wear safety goggles and dust mask. Use only in well ventilated area. Using personal safety devices and working in safe environment reduces risk of injury.
After changing the bits or making any adjustments, make sure the collet nut and any other adjustment devices are securely tightened. Loose adjustment device can unexpectedly shift, causing loss of control, loose rotating components will be violently thrown.
Never start the tool when the bit is engaged in the material. The bit cutting edge may grab the material causing loss of control of the cutter .

Always hold the tool with two hands during start-up. The reaction torque of the motor can cause the tool to twist.
When routing or cutting, the direction of feed with the bit’s cutting edge into the material is very important. Always feed the bit into the material in the same direction as the cutting edge is exiting from the material. When viewing the tool from the top, the bit rotates clockwise. If the tool is between the workpiece and your body, then feed the tool to your right. If the workpiece is between the tool and your body, then feed the tool to your left. Feeding the tool in the wrong direction causes the cutting edge of the bit to climb out of the work and pull the tool in the direction of this feed.
Never use dull or damaged bits. Sharp bits must be handled with care. Damaged bits can snap during use. Dull bits require more force to push the tool, possibly causing the bit to break.
Never touch the bit during or immediately after the use. After use the bit is too hot to be touched by bare hands.
Never lay the tool down until the motor has come to a complete standstill. The spinning bit can grab the surface and pull the tool out of your control.
Never use bits that have a cutting diameter greater than the opening in the base.

Cut Out Tool Safety Rules page heading

Do not use the tool for drilling purposes. This tool is not intended to be used with drill bits.
Always use the tool with the depth stop securely attached and positioned flat against material being cut. The depth stop securely positioned on the material improves the stability and control of your tool.
When connecting tool to dust collection and extraction systems, be sure these are connected and used according to tool and vacuum instructions. Proper use of dust collection can reduce dust related hazards.
When using tool with dust collection and extraction systems, empty the dust container before beginning work, frequently during work, after completion of work, and before storing the tool. Be extremely careful of dust disposal, materials in fine particle form may be explosive. Do not throw dust on an open fire. Fine dust particles may burn explosively.
When performing sanding and surface preparation operations with tool connected to a dust collection and extraction system be aware of the materials creating the dust. Combustion from mixture of varnishes, lacquers, polyurethane, oil or water with dust particles can occur if there is a static discharge, electric spark, or excessive heat causing a fire in the dust collection and extraction system. Do not use dust extraction for operations that include burning, smoking or smoldering items like hot ashes or sparks. Fire inside the vacuum tank or bag may occur. Dust may smolder and set vacuum on fire long after work is completed.
Do not use dust extraction with explosive dusts, varnish, polyurethane coatings, cleaners, or oil-based paints. Electric motors create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
Do not use dust extraction when working on metal. Swarf from sanding, grinding or cutting metal may be hot and may spark which may melt plastic adaptors, vacuum hoses, and may cause a fire inside the vacuum tank or bag.
The permitted speed of the cutting bit must be at least equal to the maximum speed marked on the power tool. If cutting bits run faster than their rated speed, they may break and fly off.

Additional Safety Warnings

GFCI and personal protection devices like electrician’s rubber gloves and footwear will further enhance your personal safety.
Develop a periodic maintenance schedule for your tool. When cleaning a tool be careful not to disassemble any portion of the tool since internal wires may be misplaced or pinched or safety guard return springs may be improperly mounted. Certain cleaning agents such as gasoline, carbon tetrachloride, ammonia, etc. may damage plastic parts.

Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

• Lead from lead-based paints,
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.
  Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

Removing, Installing, and Adjusting the Adjustable Depth Stop and Dust

Hood Assembly

In order to remove the adjustable depth stop (Figure 2, 2) and dust hood (3) assembly from the tool, turn the adjustable depth stop knob (9) counter- clockwise until you can remove it from the tool. The adjustable depth stop (2) and dust hood (3) assembly should then pull freely from the tool. Be careful not to lose the washer that is on the adjustable depth stop knob (9) screw. To reattach the adjustable depth stop (2) and dust hood (3) assembly, line up the slot in the adjustable depth stop (2) and dust hood (3) assembly with the threaded hole in the metal housing and re-install the adjustable depth stop knob (9) by rotating it clockwise until tight. Be careful not to cross-thread the adjustable depth stop knob screw.
The adjustable depth stop (2) allows you to control the depth of cut. Loosen the adjustable depth stop knob by turning it counter-clockwise until the depth stop can slide freely. For bits witha guide point, make sure that the entire guide point tip will extend 1/8” (3.18 mm) beyond the material thickness (Fig. 2). For standard point drywall bits, make sure that the fluted end of the bit extends 1/8” (3.18 mm) beyond the material thickness.

Changing the Collet

The tool includes 1/8”, 5/32”, and 1/4” collets.
The 1/8” collet is used with 1/8” diameter bits, the 5/32” collet is used with 5/32” diameter bits and the 1/4” collet is used with 1/4” diameter bits.

To change collets, press and hold the spindle lock button (Figure 3, 8). If necessary, turn the motor spindle (with collet nut) manually until it is locked in place.
Next, unscrew the collet nut (12) with the provided wrench (13) by turning it in the direction of rotation 1 and then release the spindle lock button.
Place the desired collet in the output shaft (14).
Each collet is double-ended and either end is acceptable to use. Ensure that the collet (11) is fully inserted in the output shaft and has a small amount of play. The collet nut (12) must be easy to fit. If the collet nut or collet is damaged, replace it immediately. Next, hand tighten the collet nut (12) by turning in the direction of rotation 2 .

Installing Bits

The bit flutes are sharp and should be handled with caution. Contact with bit flutes could result in minor or moderate injury. To prevent damage to tool, never use the spindle lock as a braking device to stop the tool from rotating.
Never tighten the collet with the collet nut if there is not a bit installed. The collet may otherwise become damaged. The tool accepts spiral type bits, standard multipurpose bits, and standard drywall bits. The bits are held by a collet system. Use either the 1/8”, 5/32”, or 1/4” collet depending on the size of the bit shank.
Press and hold the spindle lock button (Figure 4, 8). If necessary, turn the motor spindle (with collet nut) manually until it is locked in place Next, Unscrew the collet nut (12) with the provided wrench (13) by turning it in the direction of rotation 1 and then release the spindle lock button.
Remove the old bit (if there is one) and insert the new bit (1). The bit shank must be inserted at least 3/4” (approximately 20mm) into the collet. Next, press and hold the spindle lock button (8) and securely tighten the collet nut (12) with the provided wrench (13) by turning it in the direction of rotation 2 .

Belt Clip

When the tool is attached to the belt, position yourself to avoid entanglement with surrounding objects. Unexpected entanglement could cause the tool to fall resulting in injury to the operator or bystanders.
The belt clip (Figure 5, 15) will allow you to conveniently attach your tool to your belt. This feature will allow you to have both hands free when climbing a ladder or moving to another work area.
Attach the belt clip (15) to the tool by securing it with the supplied mounting screw.

Inserting and Releasing Battery Pack

To insert the battery pack: Slide charged battery pack (Figure 6, 6) into the housing until the battery pack locks into position (Figure 6, action 1 ).
Your tool is equipped with a secondary locking latch to prevent the battery pack from completely falling out of the handle, should it become loose due to vibration.
To remove the battery pack: Press the battery pack release button (7) and slide the battery pack forward (Figure 6, action 2 ).

Operation

The rated speed of the accessory must be at least equal to the maximum speed marked on the power tool. Accessories running faster than their rated speed can break and fly apart

On/Off Push Switch

Hold the tool with both hands while starting. Torque from the motor can cause the tool to twist. To turn the tool “ON”, press and hold the on/ off push switch (Figure 1, 5) until the LED work light (Figure 1, 4) comes on and the tool turns on.
NOTE: The on/off push switch has to be held down for a very brief period in order to turn the tool on. This is to help prevent accidental actuation of the tool. To turn the tool “OFF”, press the on/off push switch (5).

LED Work Light

Upon starting the tool, the LED work light (Figure 1, 4) switches on and illuminates the work area.

Make a Few Practice Cuts

Do not attempt to use this tool to make cutouts around any fixture or opening which has live electrical wires, or any wall which may have live electrical wiring behind it. Shut off breakers or remove fuses to disconnect the circuit. Always hold the tool by its thermoplastic housing. The bit could conduct electrical current to the tool, creating an electrocution hazard for the operator. After installing the bit into the tool and adjusting your depth stop, you should make a few practice cuts with the tool before attempting an actual job. A few exercises will give you the necessary practice to make clean, professional cuts.
Step 1: Make certain that the collet nut (Figure 1, 12) is securely tightened before turning the tool on.
Step 2: Hold the tool firmly and turn the tool “ON”.
Step 3: While holding the tool firmly, insert the bit into the material at a 45° angle (Fig. 7)

Step 4: Slowly bring it to a 90° angle to begin the cu t (Fig. 8).

The adjustable depth stop should be flush to the material surface. For all materials (EXCEPT cutting around outlet boxes in drywall), steer the tool in a clockwise direction with slow, steady pressure to make the cut.
Step 5: After completing your cut, turn off the tool and carefully remove it from the material.
NOTE: Because of the rotating cutting action of the bit, there will be a slight pull when cutting. The slower you cut, the more control you have. Excessive pressure or fast cutting will cause excessive heat and may shorten the life of the bit.
NOTE: When cutting on a vertical surface, avoid ending your cut at the bottom of the hole. If possible, start and end your cut at the top so the scrap part will not drop onto the rotating bit. Turn the tool off and remove it from the material.

Instructions for creating cut-outs in drywall for outlets, can lights,

windows, and doors

 Do not attempt to use this tool to make cutouts around any fixture or opening which has live electrical wires, or any wall that may have live electrical wiring behind it. Shut off breakers or remove fuses to disconnect the circuit. Always hold the tool by its thermoplastic housing. The bit could conduct electrical current to the tool, creating an electrocution hazard for the operator.
After assembling the bit into the tool as described earlier, it will be necessary to review the instructions provided below and make some practice cut-outs with this tool before attempting an actual job. The best method is to take some scrap pieces and nail or screw them in place over wall studs which have an electrical box or other feature in place. A few such exercises will give you the necessary practice to make clean, professional cutouts around whatever is behind the drywall you are installing.
Step 1: Be certain that the box or fixture is firmly mounted and all wires or other obstructions around the opening are pushed back out of the way. The bit uses the outer edge of the box or fixture as a guide, so it is important that there is nothing in the way which can prevent it from guiding completely around the opening. For the purposes of this instruction manual, the procedure discussed will be to make a cut-out around a standard 2 1/8” x 3 3/4” electrical box.

Step 2 : Turn the tool on. While holding the tool firmly with both hands, plunge the bit through the middle (Figure 10, cut 2 ). Then guide the bit to the right until you feel and hear the bit touch the inside edge of the box (Fig. 9).

Step 3: Pull the bit out far enough to slip it over the edge of the box so it is now against the outside of the box (Figure 10, cut 3 ).
Step 4: While keeping the bit in contact with the outside of the box move the tool counter clockwise while applying light inward and upward pressure until you feel and hear it come to the corner. As you round the corner apply light pressure left and downward (Figure 10, cut 4 ).

Step 5 : While moving slowly and continuously along the top contour you will feel the bit come to the next corner. Round the corner and apply light down and inward pressure until the bottom corner is reached (Figure 10, cut 5 ).
Step 6 : Move the bit right and upward maintaining light continuous pressure toward the box (Figure 10, cut 6 ).
Step 7 : Round the right bottom corner and begin moving the bit upward while applying light pressure left toward the box until you meet initial upward cut. Press the on/off button to turn the tool off (Figure 10, cut 7 ).
NOTE: These step-by-step instructions are generalized to acquaint you with the cut out tool operation. After some practice, you may develop a technique with which you are more comfortable.
However, you must always begin the cut somewhat centrally, and MOVE THE cut out tool ONLY COUNTER-CLOCKWISE to take advantage of the “hugging” action of the bit along the contours of the template. Remember to use a smooth, continuous motion. The exception to this rule applies to cutting window and door openings. Since you are tracing around the inside of the framing members, move the bit clockwise to take advantage of the bits “hugging” action.

Attaching Vacuum Hose

Bosch vacuum hose adapters VX120 and VAC024 are compatible with this tool.

1. Position and attach vacuum hose adapter (Figure 11, 16) to the dust hood chute (3).
2. Attach shop vacuum hose into large end of vacuum hose adapter (16).
   For use with 1-1/4”, 1-1/2”, 2-1/4” or 2-1/2” diameter vacuum hoses.
