Bosch GCM 12 SDE 4000 kierr./min 1800 W

Bosch GCM 12 SDE Professional is a powerful miter saw designed for precise crosscuts, mitres and bevel cuts in wood and wood-based materials. The saw combines a high cutting capacity with adjustable speed to match different materials and cutting requirements.

Advantages

The saw features a vertical cutting capacity of 120 mm and a robust 1800 W motor with a maximum idle speed of 4000 RPM. A 305 mm (30.5 cm) blade diameter provides the cutting reach needed for larger workpieces, while variable speed control allows adapting cutting speed to the material for improved finish and control. The tool’s construction and a 45° mitre capacity of 90 x 250 mm (and 0° capacity of 85 x 370 mm) support accurate angled and straight cuts. Weighing 28.6 kg, it is built for stability and jobsite durability.

Suitable for

• Crosscutting and mitre cuts in soft and hardwoods
• Precise angled cuts for joinery and trim work
• Cutting large workpieces thanks to high vertical capacity
• Professional and advanced DIY woodworking tasks

How to use

Secure the workpiece against the fence and set the required mitre and bevel angles using the machine’s scales and stops. Adjust the variable speed to match the material being cut; slower speeds are suitable for harder materials and finer finishes, while higher speeds are used for faster rough cuts in softer materials. Start the saw, let it reach operating speed, then lower the blade smoothly through the cut. Always use appropriate blades for the material and clamp the workpiece when necessary.

Recommendations

Use carbide-tipped blades recommended for wood and wood composites to achieve optimal cutting quality. Wear eye and hearing protection and follow Bosch safety instructions. For consistent results with large sections, support the workpiece on both sides and verify angle settings before cutting.
