The required speed depends on the material to be worked
and the diameter of the tool. Determine the optimum setting
through practical testing.
Switching On and Off
To start the machine, press the On/Off switch 6 and keep it
pressed.
To lock the pressed On/Off switch 6, press the lock-on button
4.
To switch off the machine, release the On/Off switch 6 or
when it is locked with the lock-on button 4, briefly press the
On/Off switch 6 and then release it.
To save energy, only switch the power tool on when using it.
Adjusting the Speed (GBM 10-2 RE/GBM 13-2 RE)
The speed of the switched on power tool can be variably ad-
justed, depending on how far the On/Off switch 6 is pressed.
Light pressure on the On/Off switch 6 results in a low rotation-
al speed. Further pressure on the switch results in an increase
in speed.

Working Advice

 Apply the power tool to the screw/nut only when it is
switched off. Rotating tool inserts can slip off.
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.
Twist drills from 2.5–10 mm can easily be sharpened with
the drill bit sharpener (see accessories).
We recommend the use of a drill stand (see accessories) for
work where greater precision is particularly required.
The machine vice, which is available as an accessory, enables
secure clamping of workpieces. This prevents the workpiece
from turning and any accidents this would cause.

Maintenance and Service

Maintenance and Cleaning

 Before any work on the machine itself, pull the mains
plug.
 For safe and proper working, always keep the machine
and ventilation slots clean.
If the replacement of the supply cord is necessary, this has to
be done by Bosch or an authorized Bosch service agent in or-
der to avoid a safety hazard.
