Table Saw Bosch GTS 635-216 Professional

The Bosch GTS 635-216 Professional is a compact table saw designed for woodworking professionals and serious hobbyists. It is equipped with a 1600 W motor and an idle speed of 5500 RPM, providing the power and rotational speed needed for clean, efficient cutting of a variety of wood materials. The saw accepts a blade with a diameter of 216 mm and a 30 mm bore, and offers cutting heights up to 70 mm at 90° and 50 mm at 45°, making it suitable for ripping, crosscutting and bevel work on panels, boards and mouldings. With a working width of 658 mm and a stable table design, this model balances portability and on-site capability with the precision expected from professional-class equipment.

Advantages

The 1600 W motor delivers consistent cutting performance across common woodworking tasks while the 5500 RPM no-load speed helps maintain smooth cuts. The blade diameter and bore specification support a wide range of standard circular saw blades, enabling versatility for ripping, crosscutting and small bevel operations. Compact dimensions and a table width of 658 mm aid transport and setup on job sites or in smaller workshops. Adjustable cutting height at both 90° and 45° provides flexibility for different material thicknesses and angled cuts.

Suitable for

• Ripping and crosscutting solid wood and plywood
• Cutting MDF, particleboard and laminated panels
• Making angled cuts and mitres up to 45°
• Small joinery, furniture components and workshop prototyping

How to use

Before first use, install an appropriate circular saw blade that matches the 216 mm diameter and 30 mm bore. Secure the blade guard and anti-kickback device according to the manufacturer's instructions. Set the desired cutting height and angle using the machine's adjustment controls and ensure the workpiece is supported and clamped where necessary. Start the saw and allow it to reach full speed before engaging the workpiece. Feed the material steadily and avoid forcing the cut; use a push stick for narrow pieces to keep hands clear of the blade. After cutting, switch off the saw and wait for the blade to stop completely before removing offcuts or making adjustments.

Usage recommendations

Use blades suited to the material: carbide-tipped general-purpose blades for mixed woodworking, fine-tooth blades for clean crosscuts in plywood and laminated panels, and rip blades for faster longitudinal cuts. Regularly check blade sharpness and replace or sharpen when cutting quality declines. Maintain stable support for long panels and use dust extraction where available to improve visibility and extend tool life.
