Safety instructions

General Power Tool Safety Warnings
WARNING
Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifica- tions provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/ or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mainsoperated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
Work area safety

Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

Electrical safety

Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

Personal safety

Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites acci- dents.
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair and clothing away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become complacent and ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.

Power tool use and care

Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected situations.

Service

Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Safety information for routers

Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only, because the cutter may contact its own cord.
Cutting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
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.
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.
Routers and other accessories must be able to fit exactly in the tool holder (collet) of your power tool. Application tools that do not fit exactly in the tool holder of the power tool will turn unevenly, vibrate heavily and may cause a loss of control.
Only bring the power tool into contact with the workpiece when switched on. Otherwise there is danger of kickback if the cutting tool jams in the workpiece.
Do not put your hands in the routing area or close to the router. Grip the auxiliary handle with your other hand. Holding the router with both hands avoids injury.
Never rout over metal objects, nails or screws. The router could become damaged and cause increased vibration.
Use suitable detectors to determine if utility lines are hidden in the work area or call the local utility company for assistance. Contact with electric lines can lead to fire and electric shock. Damaging a gas line can lead to explosion. Penetrating a water line causes property damage or may cause an electric shock.
Do not use blunt or damaged routers. Blunt or damaged routers cause increased friction, create imbalances and may become jammed.
Always wait until the power tool has come to a complete stop before placing it down. The application tool can jam and cause you to lose control of the power tool.
Hold the power tool firmly with both hands and make sure you have a stable footing. The power tool can be more securely guided with both hands.
Products sold in GB only:
Your product is fitted with an BS 1363/A approved electric plug with internal fuse (ASTA approved to BS 1362). If the plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place by an authorised customer service agent. The replacement plug should have the same fuse rating as the original plug. The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible shock hazard and should never be inserted into a mains socket elsewhere.
Never swallow button cells. Swallowing button cells can result in severe internal burns and death within two hours.

Ensure that the button cell is kept out of the reach of children. If you suspect that someone has swallowed a button cell or that a button cell has entered the body in another way, seek medical attention immediately.

Ensure that battery replacement is carried out properly. There is a risk of explosion.
Do not attempt to recharge the button cell and do not short circuit the button cell. The button cell may leak, explode, catch fire and cause personal injury.
Remove and dispose of drained button cells correctly.
Drained button cells may leak and damage the product or cause personal injury.
Do not overheat the button cell or throw it into fire.
The button cell may leak, explode, catch fire and cause personal injury.
Do not damage the button cell and or take the button cell apart. The button cell may leak, explode, catch fire and cause personal injury.
Do not allow damaged button cells to come into contact with water.
Leaking lithium may mix with water to create hydrogen, which could cause a fire, an explosion, or personal injury.

The specifications apply to a rated voltage [U] of 230 V. These specifications may vary at different voltages and in country-specific models.
Noise/Vibration Information
Noise emission values determined according to EN 62841-2-17.
Typically the A-weighted noise level of the power tool are:
93 dB(A); sound power level 104 dB(A). Uncertainty K = 3 dB.
Wear hearing protection!
Vibration total values ah (triax vector sum) and uncertainty K determined according to EN 62841-2-17: ah = 7 m/s2 , K = 1.5 m/s2 .
The vibration level and noise emission value given in these instructions have been measured in accordance with a standardised measuring procedure and may be used to compare power tools. They may also be used for a preliminary estimation of vibration and noise emissions. The stated vibration level and noise emission value represent the main applications of the power tool. However, if the power tool is used for other applications, with different application tools or is poorly maintained, the vibration level and noise emission value may differ. This may significantly increase the vibration and noise emissions over the total working period.
To estimate vibration and noise emissions accurately, the times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but not actually being used should also be taken into account. This may significantly reduce vibration and noise emissions over the total working period. Implement additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of vibration, such as servicing the power tool and application tools, keeping their hands warm, and organising workflows correctly.

Fitting

Pull the plug out of the socket before carrying out any work on the power tool. Inserting the Router Bit (see figure A)
Wearing protective gloves while fitting and changing router bits is recommended.
Router bits are available in a wide variety of designs and qualities depending on the intended application.
Router bits made of high-performance high-speed steel (HSS) are suited to machining soft materials such as softwood and plastic.
Router bits with carbide tips are especially suitable for hard and abrasive materials such as hardwood and aluminium.
Original router bits from the extensive range of Bosch accessories are available from your specialist dealer.
Only use undamaged and clean router bits.
– Swivel the spindle locking lever (6) anticlockwise as far as it will go (➊). If necessary, turn the motor spindle by hand until you hear it engage.
– Loosen the cap nut (4) with the open-ended spanner (31) (width across flats 19 mm) by turning it clockwise (➋).
– Slide the router bit into the collet. The bit shank must be inserted into the collet at least up to the mark.
– Tighten the cap nut (4) with the open-ended spanner (31) (width across flats 19 mm) by turning it anticlockwise. Lock the spindle locking lever (6) fully back into place.
Do not insert a router bit with a diameter larger than 50 mm when the guide bushing is not mounted. These router bits will not fit through the base plate.
Do not, under any circumstances, tighten the collet with the tightening nut until a router bit has been fitted. The collet may otherwise become damaged.

Dust/Chip Extraction
The dust from materials such as lead paint, some types of wood, minerals and metal can be harmful to human health. Touching or breathing in this dust can trigger allergic reactions and/or cause respiratory illnesses in the user or in people in the near vicinity. Certain dusts, such as oak or beech dust, are classified as carcinogenic, especially in conjunction with wood treatment additives (chromate, wood preservative). Materials containing asbestos may only be machined by specialists.
– Use a dust extraction system that is suitable for the material wherever possible.
– Provide good ventilation at the workplace.
– It is advisable to wear a P2 filter class breathing mask.
The regulations on the material being machined that apply in the country of use must be observed.

Avoid dust accumulation at the workplace. Dust can easily ignite.

Connecting the dust extraction system (see figure B)
Attach an extraction hose (dia. 35 mm) (32) (accessory) to the fitted dust extraction adapter. Connect the dust extraction hose (32) to a dust extractor (accessory).
The power tool can be directly connected to the plug socket of a Bosch all- purpose dust extractor with remote starter.
This dust extractor is started up automatically when the power tool is switched on.
The dust extractor must be suitable for the material being worked.
When extracting dry dust or dust that is especially detrimental to health or carcinogenic, use a special dust extractor.

Operation

Products that are only sold in AUS and NZ: Use a residual current device (RCD) with a nominal residual current of 30 mA or less.
Pay attention to the mains voltage. The voltage of the power source must match the voltage specified on the rating plate of the power tool. Power tools marked with 230 V can also be operated with 220 V.

Starting Operation
GOF 1250 LCE: Once the mains voltage has been applied, the light ring (3) lights up continuously to illuminate the workpiece surface.
Insert the battery (see “Changing the Battery (GOF 1250 LCE) (see figure M)”, page 21). In some versions the battery is already inserted. Remove the seal on the battery to activate it.
Use the button (17) to set the required unit of measure.
Preselecting the speed
You can preselect the required speed using the speed preselection thumbwheel (28), even during operation.
1−2 low speed
3−4 medium speed
5−6 high speed
The values shown in the table are guide values. The required speed is dependent on the material and the work conditions and can be determined by practical trials.

After working at a low speed for an extended period, you should operate the power tool at the maximum speed for approximately three minutes without load to cool it down.
Switching on/off
Before switching on, set the required routing depth (see “Setting the routing depth”, page 19).
To switch on the power tool, press the on/off switch (29) and keep it pressed.
Press the lock-on button (2) to lock the on/off switch (29) in this position.
To switch off the power tool, release the on/off switch (29); or, if the switch is locked with the lock-on button (2), briefly press the on/off switch (29) and then release it.
Constant electronic control
The Constant Electronic keeps the speed at no load and under load virtually consistent, guaranteeing uniform performance.
Soft start
The electronic soft start limits the torque when the power tool is switched on and increases the service life of the motor.
Overload protection
The overload protection prevents impermissibly high current consumption in the event of extreme overload. This can lead to a reduction in motor speed and power output or in extreme cases to motor standstill.
Once the load has been removed from the power tool, the motor immediately runs up or back to working speed.
Restarting Protection
The restart protection feature prevents the power tool from uncontrolled starting after the power supply to it has been interrupted. To restart the tool, set the on/off switch (29) to the “off” position and then switch the power tool on again.
Release Lever (see figure C)
The release lever (23) is automatically reset when you let go of it. For better retention force, the release lever (23) must be pulled back as far as it will go. The retention force can be readjusted if required. To do so, insert an hex key (4 mm) into the opening on the handle. Turn the hex key clockwise to increase the retention force, and turn it anticlockwise to reduce the retention force.

Setting the routing depth

The routing depth must only be set while the power tool is switched off.

For coarse adjustment of the routing depth (see figure D and E), proceed as follows:
– Place the power tool with a fitted router bit onto the workpiece you want to machine.
– Set the fine-adjustment path to the centre position with the adjustment knob (25). To do this, turn the knob (25) until the markings (19) match those shown in the figure.
Then turn the scale (24) to 0.
– Set the step buffer (9) to the lowest step; the step buffer audibly clicks into place.
– Loosen the screw (15) on the depth stop (14) so that the depth stop (14) is freely movable.
– Push the release lever (23) back and slowly guide the router down until the router bit (5) touches the workpiece surface. Let go of the release lever (23) again to lock this position.
– Press the depth stop (14) down until it is resting on the step buffer (9). GOF 1250 LCE: Switch on the digital depth display at the on/off switch (18). Press the button (16) for setting the zero point of the depth stop (14). GOF 1250 CE: Set the slide with the index mark (27) to position 0 on the routing depth scale (26).
– Set the depth stop (14) to the required routing depth and tighten the screw (15) on the depth stop (14). GOF 1250 CE: Make sure you do not adjust the slide with the index mark (27) any more.
– Push the release lever (23) and guide the router to the uppermost position.
For larger routing depths, you should perform the cut in several phases, so that only a small amount of material is removed after each cut. You can use the step buffer (9) to divide the routing process into several steps. To do this, set the required routing depth with the smallest step of the step buffer and, for the first cutting phases, select the higher steps to start with. The clearance of the steps can be changed by screwing the adjusting screws (10) further in or out.
After making a test cut, you can set the routing depth to the exact level you require by turning the knob (25). Turning it clockwise increases the routing depth; turning it anticlockwise decreases the routing depth. The scale (24) can be used for guidance. One revolution corresponds to an adjustment range of 2.0 mm. Each of the graduation marks on the bottom edge of the scale (24) changes the adjustment range by 0.1 mm. The maximum adjustment range is ±8 mm.
Example: The required routing depth should be 10.0 mm,
and the test cut resulted in a routing depth of 9.6 mm.
– Turn the scale (24) to 0.
– Turn the adjustment knob (25) clockwise by 0.4 mm/4 graduation marks (difference between target and actual value).
– Check the selected routing depth by performing another test cut.
GOF 1250 CE: After setting the routing depth, do not change the position of the slide (27) on the depth stop (14) any more to ensure that you can always read the current routing depth on the scale (26).
GOF 1250 LCE: The current routing depth is shown on the display (21).
Working Advice

Protect router bits against shock and impact. Routing direction and routing process (see figure F)
Routing must always be carried out with the workpiece being moved against the direction in which the router bit (5) is turning (up cut). If the workpiece is moved in the same direction as the router bit is turning (down cut), the power tool may be pulled out of your hands.

Set the required routing depth (see “Setting the routing depth”, page 19). Place the power tool with a fitted router bit onto the workpiece you want to machine and switch on the power tool. Push the release lever (23) back and guide the router as far as it will go in the direction of the base plate (13). Let go of the release lever (23) again in order to lock the plunging depth. Carry out the routing process with a uniform feed. When routing is complete, move the router back to the highest position. Switch the power tool off. Routing with an auxiliary guide (see figure G)
For machining large workpieces, e.g. when routing grooves, you can fasten a board or straight edge securely to the workpiece as an auxiliary guide. The router can be guided along the path of this auxiliary guide. Move the router on the flattened side of the guide plate along the auxiliary guide.
Edge or profile routing
For edge and profile routing without a parallel guide, the router bit must be fitted with a pilot pin or a ball bearing.
While it is switched on, guide the power tool towards the workpiece from the side until the pilot pin or the ball bearing of the router bit is touching the side of the workpiece edge that you want to machine. Guide the power tool along the workpiece edge. Pay attention that the router is positioned perpendicularly. Too much pressure can damage the edge of the workpiece.
Routing with a parallel guide (see figure H)
Slide the parallel guide (33) with the guide rods (34) into the base plate (13) and tighten it with the screws (7) according to the required dimension. Additionally, the parallel guide can be adjusted lengthwise with the wing bolts (36) and (35). Fine adjustment of the length is possible with the adjustment knob (37) after loosening both wing bolts (35). One revolution corresponds to an adjustment range of 2.0 mm. Each of the graduation marks on the knob (37) changes the adjustment range by 0.1 mm. The effective contact surface of the parallel guide can be adjusted with the fence (38). While it is switched on, guide the power tool along the workpiece edge with a uniform feed and while applying lateral pressure to the parallel guide. When routing with the parallel guide (33), the dust/chip extraction should take place via the special extraction adapter (39). The extraction adapter can remain fitted.
Routing with the Circle Cutting Adapter (Accessory)
You can use the circle cutting adapter for circular routing work.
Routing with the Guide Rail (Accessory)
You can use the guide rail and guide rail adapter to rout in straight lines.
Routing with the guide bushing (see figures I–L)
Using the guide bushing (43), you can transfer contours from templates or patterns to the workpiece.
Select the guide bushing that is suitable for the thickness of the template or pattern. Due to the protruding height of the guide bushing, the template must have a minimum thickness of 8 mm.
In order to use the guide bushing (43), the SDS guide-bushing adapter (40) must first be inserted into the guide plate (11).
Place the guide-bushing adapter (40) from above onto the guide plate (11) and tighten it firmly with the 2 fastening screws (41). Ensure that the release lever for the guidebushing adapter (42) is freely movable.
Push the release lever (42) in the direction of the arrow and insert the guide bushing (43) from below into the SDS guide-bushing adapter (40). The coding cams must audibly click into the recesses of the guide bushing (43).
Check the clearance from the router bit centre and guidebushing edge (see “Centring the Base Plate (see figure N)”, page 21).

Select a router bit with a diameter that is smaller than the interior diameter of the guide bushing.

Routing Process
Switch the power tool on and move it with the guide bushing (43) towards the template. Push the release lever (23) backwards and slowly guide the router down until the set routing depth has been reached.
Let go of the release lever (23) again in order to lock the plunging depth.
Guide the power tool with the protruding guide bushing (43) along the template using lateral pressure.
Centring the Base Plate (see figure N)
To ensure that the distance from the router bit centre to the guide-bushing edge is uniform, the guide bushing (43) and the guide plate (11) can be adjusted to each other, if required. Push the release lever (23) back and guide the router as far as it will go in the direction of the base plate (13). Let go of the release lever (23) again in order to lock the plunging depth. Loosen the fastening screws (44) approx. two turns so that the guide plate (11) is freely movable. Insert the centring pin (45) into the tool holder as shown in the figure. Hand-tighten the cap nut so that the centring pin can still be moved freely. Align the centring pin (45) and the guide bushing (43) to each other by slightly moving the guide plate (11). Retighten the fastening screws (44).
Remove the centring pin (45) from the tool holder. Push the release lever (23) and guide the router to the uppermost position.
Changing the Battery (GOF 1250 LCE) (see figure M)
Slide the battery compartment cover (22) upwards and remove the battery. Insert a new battery (type CR2032).
The positive pole of the battery must point forwards to the battery compartment cover (22). Insert the seal (46) and close the battery compartment cover (22).

Maintenance and Service

Maintenance and Cleaning

Pull the plug out of the socket before carrying out any work on the power tool.
To ensure safe and efficient operation, always keep the power tool and the ventilation slots clean.
In extreme conditions, always use a dust extractor if possible. Clean ventilation slots frequently using a brush and install a residual current device (RCD) upstream. When machining metals, conductive dust can settle inside the power tool, which can affect its protect- ive insulation.
In order to avoid safety hazards, if the power supply cord needs to be replaced, this must be done by Bosch or by an after-sales service centre that is authorised to repair Bosch power tools.
