To remove the battery 4, press the unlocking but-
tons 3 and pull out the battery downwards. Do
not exert any force.
The battery is equipped with an NTC tempera-
ture control which allows charging only within a
temperature range of between 0 °C and 45 °C. A
long battery service life is achieved in this man-
ner.
Observe the notes for disposal.
Changing the Tool (see figure B)
Before any work on the power tool (e. g.,
maintenance, tool change, etc.) as well as
during transport and storage, set the rota-
tional direction switch to the center posi-
tion. Unintentional actuation of the On/Off
switch can lead to injuries.
Do not use double-sided screwdriver blades
that are longer than 25 mm.
Insert the screwdriver bit 1 directly into the tool
holder 2.
Operation
Starting Operation
Inserting the Battery
Use only original Bosch lithium ion batteries
with the voltage listed on the nameplate of
your power tool. Using other batteries can
lead to injuries and pose a fire hazard.
Note: Use of batteries not suitable for the ma-
chine can lead to malfunctions of or cause dam-
age to the power tool.
Set the rotational direction switch 6 to the center
position in order to avoid unintentional starting.
Insert the charged battery 4 into the handle so
that it can be felt to engage and faces flush
against the handle.
Bosch Power Tools
Reversing the Rotational Direction
(see figure C)
The rotational direction switch 6 is used to re-
verse the rotational direction of the machine.
However, this is not possible with the On/Off
switch 5 actuated.
Right rotation: For driving in screws push the ro-
tational direction switch 6 left to the stop.
Left Rotation: For loosening or unscrewing
screws, push the rotational direction switch 6
right to the stop.
Switching On and Off
To start the power tool, press the On/Off switch
5 and keep it pressed.
The light 7 is lit when the On/Off switch 5 is
slightly or completely pressed in, and allows for
illumination of the work area under unfavorable
lighting conditions.
To switch off the power tool, release the On/Off
switch 5.
Adjusting the Speed
The speed of the switched on power tool can be
variably adjusted, depending on how far the
On/Off switch 5 is pressed.
Light pressure on the On/Off switch 5 results in
a low rotational speed. Further pressure on the
switch results in an increase in speed.
Fully Automatic Spindle Locking (Auto-lock)
When the On/Off switch 5 is not pressed, the
drill spindle and thus the tool holder are locked.
This enables screws to be screwed in, even when
the battery is empty and allows for the tool to be
used as a screwdriver.
Temperature Dependent Overload Protection
When using as intended for, the power tool can-
not be subject to overload. When the load is too
high or the allowable battery temperature range
of 0–70 °C is exceeded, the speed is reduced.
The power tool will not run at full speed until
reaching the allowable battery temperature.
