4) Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the cor-
rect power tool for your application. The
correct power tool will do the job better
and safer at the rate for which it was de-
signed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch
does not turn it on and off. Any power tool
that cannot be controlled with the switch
is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or the battery pack from the
power tool before making any adjust-
ments, changing accessories, or storing
power tools. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfa-
miliar with the power tool or these in-
structions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalign-
ment or binding of moving parts, break-
age of parts and any other condition that
may affect the power tool's operation. If
damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Prop-
erly maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges are less likely to bind and
are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool
bits etc. in accordance with these instruc-
tions, taking into account the working
conditions and the work to be performed.
Use of the power tool for operations differ-
ent from those intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qual-
ified repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that
the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Safety Warnings for Diamond Drills
Hold the power tool only by the insulated
gripping surfaces of the drill stand when
performing operations where the applica-
tion tool could contact hidden wiring or its
own power cord. Contact with a "live" wire
will also make exposed metal parts of the
power tool "live" and shock the operator.
Use suitable detectors to determine if utili-
ty lines are hidden in the work area or call
the local utility company for assistance.
Contact with electric lines can lead to fire
and electric shock. Damaging a gas line can
lead to explosion. Penetrating a water line
causes property damage or may cause an
electric shock.
Never operate the machine with-
out the residual current device
(RCD) provided.
Before starting work, check the proper func-
tion of the residual current device (RCD).
Have a damaged residual current device
(RCD) repaired or replaced by your Bosch
after-sales service agent.
Pay attention that neither persons in the
working area nor the power tool itself come
into contact with the water that comes out.
Pay attention that water-conducting hoses,
connnection elements and the water collec-
tion ring (accessory) are in proper condi-
tion. Replace damaged or worn parts before
using the next time. Water coming out of
power tool components increases the risk of
electric shock.
Store the machine in a safe manner when
not being used. The storage location must
be dry and lockable. This prevents the ma-
chine from storage damage, and from being
operated by untrained persons.
Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil
and grease. Greasy, oily handles are slippery
causing loss of control.
