The reviews are mixed... nice saw, but some people WERE having problems
with a dead on cut. The saw was not perfectly perp.. They said there was
some twisting or drifting going on, and bosch told them it was not
adjustable, which does seem odd. seems like there should be some cam of
the bearing holders to align it.




IME I can get a perp cut, but you have to be very methodical about it.
You have to let the saw come up to speed before beginning the cut
because it has a real kick on start up and be very deliberate about
pulling straight through the cut. There is an adjustment for taking
play out of the mechanism, but it can only go so far before it starts to
bind things up.

Not traits one would want in a very expensive device, but it works when
you get used to it.


So how often do you get one out of square? Seems like a little lack of
focus could make it be a problem.
