This enables screws to be screwed in, even when the
battery is empty and allows for the tool to be used as a
screwdriver.
Run-on Brake
When the On/Off switch 11 is released, the chuck
brakes to a stop, thus preventing the run-on of the tool.
When driving in screws, wait until the screw is screwed
in flush with the material and then release the On/Off
switch 11. By doing so, the head of the screw does not
penetrate into the material.
Working Instructions
Apply the power tool to the screw only when
it is switched off. Rotating tool inserts can slip off.
Soft Grip ("Comfort Zone")
The gripping surface (soft grip) 4 reduces the danger
of slipping and thereby improves the grip on the
machine and the handling.
At the same time, the rubber coating achieves a vibra-
tion-reducing effect.
Tips
After longer periods of working at low speed, allow the
machine to cool down by running it for approx. 3 min-
utes at maximum speed with no load.
For drilling in metal, use only perfectly sharpened HSS
drill bits (HSS = High Speed Steel). The appropriate
quality is guaranteed by the Bosch accessories pro-
gram.
Before screwing larger, longer screws into hard mate-
rials, it is advisable to predrill a pilot hole with the core
diameter of the thread to approx.
length.
Maintenance and Service
Maintenance and Cleaning
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 position.
Unintentional actuation of the On/Off switch can
lead to injuries.
For safe and proper working, always keep the
power tool and the ventilation slots clean.
If the power tool should fail despite the care taken in
manufacturing and testing procedures, repair should
be carried out by an after-sales service center for
Bosch power tools.

In all correspondence and spare parts orders, please
always include the 10-digit article number given on the
type plate of the power tool.
Replacing the Carbon Brushes (see figure H)
When the carbon brushes are worn, the power tool
switches off automatically. For replacement of the car-
bon brushes, unscrew the four screws of the cover lid
17 and remove the cover lid 17. Insert a screwdriver or
similar into the notch of the brush holder 16 and care-
fully pry it out. Remove the used carbon brushes and
replace them. The new carbon brushes can also be
inserted when turned by 180°. Lightly press the
inserted carbon brushes downward until they can be
clearly heard to engage. Afterwards mount the cover lid
17 again.
