According to our radial arm saw expert
The Bosch PCM 8 S is a robust machine, perfect for sawing larger workpieces. Thanks to the two sturdy side extensions and the pull function with parallel guide, you can saw heights of up to 65mm, and widths of up to 220mm. On top of that, the PCM 8 S features some useful extras that will make your job easier. These include an adjustable laser guide, an integrated light, and an option for dust extraction. Thanks to the aluminum construction, this high-end radial arm saw by Bosch is built to last many years.

Very happy with it. It cuts very straight and the sawn surface is beautifully smooth. In the first test it was only noticeable that the laser indication deviated by about 2 mm. However, I can imagine that they don't do that during production, because after transport it still differs. Incidentally, there was no description in the manual how to adjust this. I eventually found out that you can do that with a small Allen key. Fine adjustments can be made on the sides of the laser, and the entire laser unit can be moved at the bottom.

I currently use it a lot for making windows and doors where accuracy is very important. It does this very well because it cuts really square and straight and the sawn surface is nice and smooth. During the first tests, it was only noticeable that the laser indication deviated considerably and therefore had to be adjusted. (The manual does not describe how to adjust it, by the way.) You have to do this with a small allen key. Fine adjustments can be made on the sides of the laser, and the entire laser unit can be moved at the bottom. If you do this adjustment accurately, that laser is really ideal.
The dust collection does not work as well, with a vacuum cleaner on it but slightly better. Stretching a garbage bag with the opening over the back does help a lot.
