Adjusting the Speed
The speed of the switched on power tool can be variably ad-
justed, depending on how far the On/Off switch 9 is pressed.
Light pressure on the On/Off switch 9 results in a low rotation-
al speed. Further pressure on the switch results in an increase
in speed.
Fully automatic spindle locking (Auto-lock)
When the On/Off switch 9 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 9 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 9.
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 range of 0–70 °C is exceeded, the speed is re-
duced. The power tool will not run at full speed until reaching
the allowable battery temperature.
Working Advice
Apply the power tool to the screw only when it is
switched off. Rotating tool inserts can slip off.
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.

Maintenance and Service
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.
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.
Always keep the tool holder 2 and the insert tool clean to en-
sure the locking and releasing function of the locking sleeve 3.
If the machine should fail despite the care taken in manufac-
turing and testing procedures, repair should be carried out by
an after-sales service centre for Bosch power tools.
