tons 8 and pull out the battery downwards. Do
not exert any force.
The battery is equipped with a NTC temperature
control which allows charging only within a tem-
perature 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 machine (e. g.,
maintenance, tool change, etc.) as well as
during transport and storage, set the rota-
tional direction switch to the centre posi-
tion. Unintentional actuation of the On/Off
switch can lead to injuries.

Starting Operation

Inserting the Battery
Use only original Bosch lithium ion batter-
ies 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 cen-
tre position in order to avoid unintentional start-
ing. Insert the charged battery 9 into the handle
so that it can be felt to engage and faces flush
against the handle.

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 7 actuated.
Right Rotation: For drilling and driving in
screws, push the rotational direction switch 6
left to the stop.
Left Rotation: For loosening or unscrewing
screws, push the rotational direction switch 6
right to the stop.
Setting the Torque
With the torque presetting ring 4 the required
torque setting can be preselected in 10 steps.
With the correct setting, the insert tool is
stopped as soon as the screw is screwed flush
into the material or when the adjusted torque is
reached. The safety clutch is deactivated in the
" " position, e. g. for drilling.
Select a higher setting or switch to the
" " symbol when unscrewing screws.
Switching On and Off
To start the machine, press the On/Off switch 7
and keep it depressed.
The LED 10 lights up when the On/Off switch 7
is halfway or fully pressed, and enables illumina-
tion of the screwing location in unfavourable
light conditions.
To switch off the machine, release the On/Off
switch 7.
Adjusting the Speed
The speed of the switched on power tool can be
variably adjusted, depending on how far the
On/Off switch 7 is pressed.
Light pressure on the On/Off switch 7 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 7 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
machine to be used as a screwdriver.
