Anti-clockwise rotation: To loosen or unscrew screws, slide the rotational
direction switch (5) backwards.
Switching on/off
To start the power tool, press and hold the on/off switch (8).
The worklight (9) lights up when the On/Off switch (8) is lightly or fully
pressed, allowing the work area to be illuminated in poor lighting conditions.
To switch off the power tool, release the on/off switch (8).
Adjusting the Speed
You can adjust the speed of the power tool when it is on by pressing in the
on/off switch (8) to varying extents.
A light pressure on the on/off switch (8) results in a low rotational speed. In-
creased pressure on the switch causes an increase in speed.
Fully automatic spindle lock (Auto-Lock)
The drill spindle, and therefore the tool holder, are locked when the on/off
switch (8) is not pressed.
This allows screws to be driven in even when the battery is discharged and
enables the power tool to be used as a screwdriver.
If the drill spindle is blocked, do not press the on/off switch (8) for
u
longer than 15 seconds. Otherwise, the power tool may become dam-
aged.
Practical advice
Only apply the power tool to the screw/nut when the tool is switched
u
off. Rotating tool inserts can slip off.
Maintenance and Service
Maintenance and Cleaning
To ensure safe and efficient operation, always keep the power tool
u
and the ventilation slots clean.
If the battery is no longer working, please contact an authorised after-sales
service agent for Bosch power tools.
