Assembly
Before any work on the machine itself, pull
the mains plug.
Dust extraction (PSB 500 RA)
(see figures A F) –
Dusts from materials such as lead-containing
coatings, some wood types, minerals and
metal can be harmful to one's health. Touch-
ing or breathing-in the dusts can cause aller-
gic reactions and/or lead to respiratory infec-
tions of the user or bystanders.
Certain dusts, such as oak or beech dust, are
considered as carcinogenic, especially in
connection with wood-treatment additives
(chromate, wood preservative). Materials
containing asbestos may only be worked by
specialists.
– Use dust extraction whenever possible.
– Provide for good ventilation of the work-
ing place.
– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-
class respirator.
Bosch Power Tools
Observe the relevant regulations in your
country for the materials to be worked.
Use the dust/chip extraction only when
working concrete, brick and brickwork.
Wood or plastic chips can easily lead to clog-
ging.
WARNING Fire hazard! Do not work metal-
lic materials with the extraction device
mounted. Hot metal chips can ignite parts of
the extraction device.
To achieve optimum extraction results, please
observe the following notes:
– Pay attention that the extraction device faces
flush against the workpiece or the wall. This
also makes drilling at a right angle easier.
– When using the extraction device, always
work with the maximum speed.
– After reaching the desired drilling depth, pull
the drill bit out of the drill hole first and then
switch off the impact drill.
– Use the extraction device only with the filter
element 16 mounted, as otherwise
dust/chips could access the interior of the
power tool and cause damage. – Check the condition of the filter element 16
regularly. Replace a damaged filter element
immediately.
– The dust protection ring 18 can wear, espe-
cially when working with large drill-bit diam-
eters. Replace the dust protection ring when
worn/damaged.
