Switching On and Off
To start the machine, press the On/Off switch 12 and keep it
pressed.
The power light 10 lights up when the On/Off switch 12 is
halfway or fully depressed, and enables illumination of the
screwing location in unfavourable light conditions.
To switch off the machine, release the On/Off switch 12.
Adjusting the Speed
The speed of the switched on power tool can be variably adjust-
ed, depending on how far the On/Off switch 12 is pressed.
Light pressure on the On/Off switch 12 results in a low rota-
tional speed. Further pressure on the switch results in an in-
crease in speed.
Run-on Brake
When the On/Off switch 12 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 12.
By doing so, the head of the screw does not penetrate into the
material.
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.

To save energy, only switch the power tool on when using it.
Maintenance and Service
Maintenance and Cleaning
Before any work on the machine (e. g., maintenance,
tool change, etc.) as well as during transport and stor-
age, set the rotational direction switch to the centre
position. Unintentional actuation of the On/Off switch can
lead to injuries.
For safe and proper working, always keep the machine
and ventilation slots clean.
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.
In all correspondence and spare parts order, please always in-
clude the 10-digit article number given on the type plate of
the machine.
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.
