Temperature Dependent Overload Protection
When using as intended for, the power tool can-
not be subject to overload. When the load is too
high or the allowable battery temperature of
70 °C is exceeded, the electronic control
switches off the power tool until the tempera-
ture is in the optimum temperature range again.
The 3 LEDs of the battery charge-control indica-
tor 7 flash rapidly when the battery temperature
is not within the operating temperature range of
–20 to +70°C, and/or when the overload protec-
tion has responded.
Protection Against Deep Discharging
The lithium ion battery is protected against
deep discharging by the "Electronic Cell Protec-
tion (ECP)". When the battery is empty, the ma-
chine is switched off by means of a protective
circuit: The inserted tool no longer rotates.

Working Advice

Wait until the machine has come to a stand-
still before placing it down.
The removal capacity during sanding is mainly
determined by the selection of the sanding
sheet.
Only flawless sanding sheets achieve good
sanding capacity and extend the service life of
the machine.
Pay attention to apply uniform sanding pres-
sure; this increases the working life of the sand-
ing sheets.
Intensifiying the sanding pressure does not lead
to an increase of the sanding capacity, but to in-
creased wear of the machine and the sanding
sheet.

ing plate.

Maintenance and Service

Maintenance and Cleaning

Before any work on the machine (e. g. main-
tenance, changing the tool, etc.) as well as
during its transport and storage, lock the
On/Off switch in the off position. There is
danger of injury when the On/Off switch is
unintentionally actuated.
For safe and proper working, always keep
the machine and ventilation slots clean.
When the battery is no longer operative, please
refer to an authorised after-sales service agent
for Bosch power tools.
If the machine should fail despite the care taken
in manufacturing and testing procedures, repair
should be carried out by an after-sales service
centre for Bosch power tools.
In all correspondence and spare parts order,
please always include the 10-digit article
number given on the type plate of the machine.
