Common Bosch power saw parts that need replacement

• Motor brushes. The spring-loaded motor brushes on a power saw mount against the rotating armature, transferring power to the armature.
• Saw blade. The saw blade is a circular metal disc with teeth mounted to the arbor shaft. The motor spins the arbor shaft which rotates the saw blade to cut the work piece.
• On/off switch. The on/off switch sends electrical current to the motor spin the blade.
• Motor overload. The power saw’s motor overload prevents motor damage by shutting off power to the motor when the blade binds up in the work piece overheating the motor.

Preventing bad cuts when using your Bosch table saw

If you have to push the work piece harder through the table saw blade and you see ragged, torn, splintered or burnt grain along the edges where you just cut, you may need to clean, adjust or replace the blade. You may also need to clean the table and use a guide to achieve clean cuts.

First, check the condition of the saw blade for damage or residue. Clean gum or pitch residue off the blade using turpentine and steel wool. Replace the saw blade if it's worn or damaged.

Check blade alignment because the blade won't make accurate cuts if it's not parallel with the miter gauge groove. If blade alignment is off, use a combination square to accurately adjust the blade so it's parallel with the miter gauge groove.

Use the right type of saw blade to cleanly cut the work piece.

Clean gum or pitch off the table so the work piece feeds smoothly through the cutting blade area when making cuts.

Use the rip fence or miter gauge to guide your work piece through the saw blade for uniform cuts.
