– Provide for good ventilation of the working place.
– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class respirator.
Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the ma-
terials to be worked.
Avoid dust accumulation at the workplace. Dust can
u
easily ignite.
Operation
Starting Operation
Inserting the battery
Note: The use of batteries unsuitable for your power tool can
lead to malfunctions or damage to the power tool.
Set the rotational direction switch (9) to the middle position
to avoid unintentionally switching it on. Insert the charged
battery (6) into the handle until you feel it engage and it is
flush with the handle.
Setting the rotational direction (see figure H)
The rotational direction switch (9) is used to change the ro-
tational direction of the power tool. However, this is not pos-
sible while the on/off switch (10) is being pressed.
Right rotation: To drill and to drive in screws, press the ro-
tational direction switch (9) through to the left stop.
Left Rotation: To loosen and unscrew screws and nuts,
press the rotational direction switch (9) through to the right
stop.
Preselecting the Torque
The torque presetting ring (3) can be used to preselect the
required torque in 15 stages. When the correct setting is
used, the application tool will be stopped when the screw is
driven flush into the material or once the set torque has been
reached. In position the overload clutch is deactivated,
e.g. for drilling.
When unscrewing screws, it may be advisable to select a
higher setting or the symbol.
Mechanical gear selection
Only operate the gear selector (4) when the power
u
tool is not in use.
You can preselect two speed ranges with the gear selector
(4).
First gear:
Low speed range; for working with a large drilling diameter
or for screwdriving.
Second gear:
High speed range; for working with a small drilling diameter.
Always push the gear selector switch as far as it will
u
go. Otherwise, the power tool may become damaged.
Switching on/off
To start the power tool, press and hold the on/off switch
(10).
The worklight (8) lights up when the on/off switch (10) is
lightly or fully pressed, allowing the work area to be illumin-
ated in poor lighting conditions.
Bosch Power Tools
The worklight (8) will remain lit for approximately ten
seconds after the on/off switch (10) has been released.
Adjusting the Speed
You can adjust the speed of the power tool when it is on by
pressing in the on/off switch (10) to varying extents.
A light pressure on the on/off switch (10) results in a low ro-
tational speed. Increased pressure on the switch causes an
increase in speed.
Fully automatic spindle lock (Auto-Lock)
The drill spindle, and therefore the mounting (1), are locked
when the on/off switch (10) 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.
Temperature-dependent overload protection
In normal conditions of use, the power tool cannot be over-
loaded. If the power tool is overloaded or not kept within the
permitted battery temperature range, the power output is
reduced or the power tool is switched off. The power tool
will not run at full power output again until the permitted bat-
tery temperature has been reached.
Connectivity functions
In conjunction with the GCY 30-4 Bluetooth
Module, the following connectivity functions are available for
the power tool:
– Registration and personalisation
– Status check, output of warning messages
– General information and settings
– Management

tion about the GCY 30-4 Bluetooth
Battery charge indicator (battery model GBA 18V...)
(see figure A)
The three green LEDs of the battery charge indicator (18) in-
dicate the state of charge of the battery (6). For safety reas-
ons, it is only possible to check the state of charge when the
power tool has been stopped.
Press the button (19) to show the state of charge. This is
also possible when the battery is removed.
LEDs
3 × continuous green light
2 × continuous green light
1 × continuous green light
1 × flashing green light
If no LED lights up after pressing the button (19), then the
battery is defective and must be replaced.
Practical advice
With the GCY 30-4 Bluetooth
u
power tool is equipped with a radio interface. Local
operating restrictions, e.g. in aircraft or hospitals,
must be observed.
