Working Advice
Use drilling lubricant or cutting oil for cooling and lubrication,
and to avoid overheating or jamming of the drill bit.
When drilling diameters >10 mm, drill a pilot hole with a small
drilling diameter. This allows you to reduce the feed pressure
and the power tool is strained less.
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.
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.
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.
