Starting Operation

  • Use only original Bosch lithium-ion batteries with the voltage stated on the type plate of your power tool. Using other batteries can lead to injuries and pose a fire hazard.

Set the rotational direction switch (12) to the middle position to avoid unintentionally switching it on. Insert the charged battery (6) into the handle until you feel it engage and it is flush with the handle.

The rotational direction switch (12) is used to change the rotational direction of the power tool. However, this is not possible while the on/off switch (13) is being pressed.

Right rotation: To drive in screws and tighten nuts, press the rotational direction switch (12) through to the left stop.

Left Rotation: To loosen and unscrew screws and nuts, press the rotational direction switch (12) through to the right stop.

To start the power tool, press and hold the on/off switch (13).

To switch off the power tool, release the on/off switch (13).

With the button (8), you can preselect the required speed/impact rate in three stages. Press the button (8) repeatedly until the desired setting appears in the speed indicator (11). The selected setting will be saved.

The required speed/impact rate is dependent on the material and the work conditions and can be determined by practical trials.

You can adjust the speed of the power tool when it is on by pressing in the on/off switch (13) to varying extents.

A light pressure on the on/off switch (13) results in a low rotational speed. Increased pressure on the switch causes an increase in speed.

Press the button (10) to activate the lamp (9). To switch off the lamp (9), press the button (10) again.
