f Use the saw station only for cutting the materials listed

under Intended Use. Marble or granite as well as tiles with

a rough surface structure and natural stone tiles cannot be
cut.

Product Description and Specifica­tions

Intended Use

PLS 300: Together with the power tool, the sawing station is

intended for sawing straight lengthway and crossway cuts in
boards and profiles of hardwood and softwood, as well as alu­minium and plastic.
Horizontal mitre angles from a maximum of –45° to +45° as
well as bevel angles from a maximum of 0 ° to 45° can be set.

The sawing station is intended for operation exclusively with
jigsaws from the Bosch PST DIY program.

f Only use the saw blades recommended by Bosch (see

page 129). When using saw blades that are too thin, dan-

ger is given that the cut runs out of centre.

PLS 300 Set, PTC 1: Together with the tile cutter, the sawing
station is intended for cutting ceramic and nonvitreous tiles to
a maximum thickness of 10 mm.
Horizontal mitre angles from a maximum of – 45° to +45° can
be set.

Operation
Sawing

English | 15

Preparing for Operation

The saw station must be assembled depending on the respec­tive sawing application:

– Sawing Panels

(e. g. laminate flooring panels)

–Sawing Profiles

(e. g. baseboards)

The use of screws/bolts is not required.

Panel (cross section) (see figures A1 – A3)

– Mount the support extensions 6 left and right to the base

unit 1.

– Depending on the workpiece size, mount the additional

supports 7 to the inner or outer guide of the support exten­sions.

– Loosen the locking knob 3 a few turns.
– Turn the locking lever 10 of t he guide rail le ftward a nd fold

the guide rail 4 upward.

– Mark the desired cutting line on the workpiece.
– Place down the workpiece with the visible side flat against

the stop of the base unit 1.

– Fold the guide rail downward and align the workpiece to

the cutting line of mark 11.
– Lock the guide rail 4 with locking lever 10.
– Tighten the locking knob 3.

Panel (mitre cuts) (see figure B)

The mitre angle can be set in the range from 45 ° (left side) to
45° (right side).

– Loosen locking knob 12.
– Turn the guide r ail 4 left or right until the angle indicator 13

indicates the requested mitre angle.
– Tighten the locking knob 12 again.

For swift and precise adjustment of standard mitre angles,
the guide rail engages at 0 ° and 45 °.

– For additional worksteps, see “Panel (cross section)” on

page 15.

Profile (bevel cuts) (see figures C1 –C3)

– Mount the support extensions 6 left and right at the front

position of the bridge 8.
– Fold the red end stop 9 by 180 ° to the rear.
– Loosen the locking knob 3 a few turns.
– Turn the locking lever 10 of t he guide rail le ftward a nd fold

the guide rail 4 upward.
– Mark the desired cutting line on the workpiece.
– Place down the workpiece flat

against the stop of the support

extensions 6.
– Fold the guide rail downward

and align the workpiece to the

cutting line of mark 11.
– Lock the guide rail 4 with locking lever 10.

– Tighten the locking knob 3

ust the base plate of the jigsaw accordingly to the de-

Adj

–

sired angle.
Notes on the adjustment are given in the operating instruc­tions of the jigsaw.

Note: The folded back red end stop 9 is used as the stop for
the base plate of the power tool.

Panel (lengthway cuts, recesses) (see figure D)

– Loosen the locking knob 3 a few turns.
– Remove the guide rail 4 and the bridge 8 from the base unit

1.

– Mount the support extensions 6 left and right to the base

unit 1.

– Depending on the workpiece length, mount the additional

supports 7 reversed (see figure D) into the inner or outer
guide of the support extensions.

f Take care that the cutting line in the notched area is be-

tween the additional supports, to ensure that you do
not saw into the saw station.

Note: When sawing lengthway cuts, the saw station is used

only as a supporting surface. The workpiece cannot be
clamped. Therefore, hold it tightly while sawing.

.

Working Advice

f Only use the saw blades recommended by Bosch (see

page 129). When using saw blades that are too thin, dan-

ger is given that the cut runs out of centre.

The base plate of the jigsaw must always be in the front posi­tion.

The thickness of the material to be cut depends on the sawing
capacity of the respective jigsaw.
For further information, see the opera ting instructions of your
jigsaw.

To ensure optimal operational safety, the workpiece must al­ways be affixed.

Sawing

– Position the base plate of the power tool in such a manner

on the guide rail 4 that you always saw in the direction of
locking knob 3.

– Switch on the machine.
– Saw through the workpiece applying uniform feed.
– Switch off the machine and wait until the saw blade has

come to a complete stop.

– Remove the power tool from the the guide rail and r elease

the workpiece.

Transport

– Remove the power tool before transporting.

Operation
Cutting tiles

Preparing for Operation

When the sawing station is to be used for cutting tiles, the ad­ditional PTC 1 kit is to be used.

The stop 15 is supplied as two parts, folded together.
– Before using for the first time, put the two parts of the stop

15 together, so that they cannot be taken apart after-

wards.

Lengthway Cuts (see figures F1–F3)

– Loosen the locking knob 3 a few turns.
– Turn the locking lever 10 of t he guide rail le ftward a nd fold

the guide rail 4 upward.
–Place stop 15 centred in the groove of bridge 8 and slide it

flush into base unit 1.
– Mark the desired cutting line on the workpiece.
– Place down the workpiece with the visible side up, flat

against the stop 15.
– Fold the guide rail 4 down and align the workpiece cutting

line to the scale of the stop 15.

1 609 929 W68 | (21.6.11) Bosch Power Tools

– Press down the guide rail 4 in the area of the workpiece

with your flat hand.

– Tighten the locking knob 3.
– Lock the guide rail 4 with locking lever 10.

Diagonal Cuts (see figure G)

The mitre angle can be set in the range from 45 ° (left side) to
45° (right side).

– Loosen locking knob 12.
– Turn the guide r ail 4 left or right until the angle indicator 13

indicates the requested mitre angle.

– Tighten the locking knob 12 again.
For swift and precise adjustment of standard mitre angles,

the guide rail engages at 0 ° and 45 °.
– For additional worksteps, see “Lengthway Cuts” on

page 16.

OBJ_BUCH-1219-002.book Page 17 Tuesday, June 21, 2011 2:15 PM

Working Advice

Cutting Tiles (see figures H1– H3)
– Insert the tile cutter 14 into the sawing slot of the guide rail

4 above stop 15.

The arrow on the tile cutter must face you.
– Pull the tile cutter 14 over the complete tile with uniform

pressure.
– Remove the tile cutter 14 from the guide rail 4.
– Turn the locking lever 10 of t he guide rail le ftward a nd fold

the guide rail 4 upward.

– Place the break-off cones 16 on a firm surface.

Place the tile on the break-off cones in such a manner that
the break-off cones are positioned below the cutting line
and at the edges of the tile.
For diagonal cuts, the break-off cones should be posi­tioned below the cutting line and somewhat further toward
the inside.

– Apply both of your thumb balls at the same time to the out-

er sides of the tile until the tile breaks.
