Working Advice
- Remove the battery from the power tool before carrying out work on the power tool (e.g. maintenance, changing tool, etc.). The battery should also be removed for transport and storage. There is risk of injury from unintentionally pressing the on/off switch.
Before starting work, always check that the safety and actuation devices are functioning correctly and that all screws and nuts are tightly seated.
If a power tool is defective or not functioning properly, disconnect it immediately from the power supply and contact an authorised Bosch after-sales service centre. .
Do not perform any incorrect manipulations on the power tool. Do not disassemble or block any components of the power tool, such as the discharge lock-off.
Do not carry out "emergency repairs" with unsuitable means. The power tool is to be maintained regularly and properly.
Avoid any tampering and damage to the power tool, e. g. from:
- Imprinting or engraving,
- Retrofitting measures not approved by the manufacturer,
- Guiding along templates manufactured of hard material, e.g. steel,
- Dropping on or sliding over the floor,
- Using as a hammer,
- Applying any kind of force.
Make sure to check whatever is below or behind your workpiece. Do not discharge staples into walls, ceilings or floors when persons are behind them. The staples may punch through the workpiece and may cause injury.
Do not discharge staples on top of a staple that has already been driven in. This could cause the staples to deform, the staples could become jammed or the power tool could move in an uncontrolled manner.
When the power tool is used in cold environmental conditions, the first staples will be driven in slower than usual. Once the power tool has warmed up during working, normal operating speed will be regained.
Avoid pulling the trigger when the magazine is empty to minimise wear on the firing pin.
For longer work breaks or after finishing work, switch off the power tool, remove the battery and empty the magazine if possible.
You can set the driving depth of the staples using the thumbwheel (4).
- Empty the magazine (13).

You can check the depth stop adjustment on the (3) display.
- Refill the magazine.
- Test the new driving depth on a test workpiece.
Repeat the worksteps as required.
Single staples may become jammed in the shot duct. If this should occur frequently, please contact an authorised Bosch after-sales service centre.
Note: If the driver blade does not return after clearing a jam, please contact an authorised Bosch after-sales service centre.
- Release the trigger (5).
- Switch the power tool off and remove the battery (10).
- Press the switch (12) to open the magazine. The magazine slider extends.
- Rotate the power tool so that the staple strip slides out in the magazine. Remove the jammed staple. Use a pair of pliers for this, if required.
- Refill the magazine.
- Pull the magazine slider to the beginning of the magazine until the magazine slider engages.
The workpiece protector (1) at the end of the discharge lock-off (2) protects the workpiece until the power tool is correctly placed for the discharging procedure. The workpiece protector can be removed and replaced
- Release the trigger (5).
- Switch the power tool off and remove the battery (10).
- Empty the magazine (13).
- Remove the workpiece protector from the discharge lock-off.
- Push the new workpiece protector with the open end over the discharge lock-off.
Note: A spare workpiece protector can be stored at the bottom of the magazine (13). For this, push the workpiece protector into the storage compartment (19).
For transport, switch off the power tool; especially when using ladders or moving in an unusual stance or posture.
At the workplace, carry the power tool only by the handle (16) and with the trigger (5) released.
Always store the power tool disconnected from the battery and in a dry and warm location.
When not using the power tool for an extended period of time, apply a fine oil coating to steel parts. This prevents the formation of rust.
