Nice looking bit of kit!!

I have been using this model for about 12 months and so far it has done everything I have asked of it.

My one concern about this is the replacement blades. The arbour on it is 25.4mm, when reading the manual is says to only use blades with the correct size bore and "Under no circumstances should a reducing bush be used". So when shopping for a new blade I find that there are very few blades with that size bore. Bosch blades have a 30mm bore but come with a reducing bush......... I'm confused.

The manual says the bore is 25.4 but the web site says it is 30mm ???

Technical data

The most important data

Here you will find the most important technical data for your professional B

Bosch tool at a glance!

Table size	642 x 572 mm
No-load speed	3.650 rpm

Saw blade bore diameter	30 mm
Incline setting	47 ° L / 2 ° R

Just checked the latest electronic (pdf) version of the manual and it says 30mm

Pulled the blade from the saw and it is 25.4 ??
The australian site states 25.4 and the GB site 30.
I give up......

Which blade do you use? I'm looking for a 40 teeth blade to buy. Thanks

i've heard it cuts slowly too. I own the same model and mine does too, but it's my first table saw so i'm not concerned. If anything it gives me more time to think of safety, so i see it as a good thing.

i'd be interested to know how much diffrence the blade change makes as i'm considering getting a new blade on mine. The default one is kinda rubbish. I've also found dust on it to be horrific, but i'm only using a shop vac on it at the moment so i'm hoping you'll tell me with decent DE it's not too bad ?

Just got mine last week. Not much choices here in Malaysia. Worked well for me as I used it to build the table for it to extend the rip capacity. Still searching for the fence rails to extend it though. Am thinking to build a sliding extension cause I noticed it being a jobsite saw, the distance from edge of table to blade is very small making cross cutting larger panels difficult even with a larger cross cut sled.

Major gripe thus far is the dust, even with a shopvac hooked up, the amount of dust under the table is unacceptable. Also the amount of dust spewing on top of table while cutting is too much to handle as well. Will make a zero clearance insert plate this weekend and also see what can be done to seal up some holes in the saw to improve the situation.

If anyone have managed to improve the dust collection, appreciate some advise.
