Fully automatic spindle locking (Auto-lock)
When the On/Off switch 5 is not pressed, the drill spindle and
thus the tool holder are locked.
This enables screws to be screwed in, even when the battery is
empty and allows for the machine to be used as a screwdriver.
Run-on Brake
When the On/Off switch 5 is released, the chuck brakes to a
stop, thus preventing the run-on of the tool.
When driving in screws, wait until the screw is screwed in
flush with the material and then release the On/Off switch 5.
By doing so, the head of the screw does not penetrate into the
material.
Temperature Dependent Overload Protection
When using as intended for, the power tool cannot be subject
to overload. When the load is too high or the allowable battery
temperature is exceeded, the electronic control switches off
the power tool until the temperature is in the optimum tem-
perature range again.
Working Advice
Apply the power tool to the screw only when it is
switched off. Rotating tool inserts can slip off.
When the power tool is electrostatically charged, the built-in
electronic control switches it off. To restart the power tool,
press the On/Off switch 5 again.
Tips
The ergonomically shaped handle enables dynamic and fa-
tigue-free handling of the power tool (see figure D).
After longer periods of working at low speed, allow the ma-
chine to cool down by running it for approx. 3 minutes at max-
imum speed with no load.
For drilling in metal, use only perfectly sharpened HSS drill
bits (HSS=high-speed steel). The appropriate quality is guar-
anteed by the Bosch accessories program.
Before screwing larger, longer screws into hard materials, it is
advisable to predrill a pilot hole with the core diameter of the
2
thread to approx.
/
of the screw length.

Recommendations for Optimal Handling of the Battery
Protect the battery against moisture and water.
Store the battery only within a temperature range between
–20 °C and 50 °C. As an example, do not leave the battery in
the car in summer.
Occasionally clean the venting slots of the battery using a soft,
clean and dry brush.
A significantly reduced working period after charging indi-
cates that the battery is used and must be replaced.
Observe the notes for disposal.

Maintenance and Cleaning
Before any work on the machine itself (e. g. mainte-
nance, tool change, etc.) as well as during transport
and storage, remove the battery from the power tool.
Bosch Power Tools
There is danger of injury when unintentionally actuating
the On/Off switch.
For safe and proper working, always keep the machine
and ventilation slots clean.
When the battery is no longer operative, please refer to an au-
thorised after-sales service agent for Bosch power tools.
