INSERTING BIT

For small bits, open jaws enough to insert the

bit up to the flutes. For large bits, insert the bit

as far as it will go. Center the bit as you close

the jaws by hand. This positions the bit

properly, giving maximum contact between the

chuck jaws and the bit shank.

To tighten chuck, insert key into each of the

three key holes in succession and tighten

clockwise firmly. The chuck can be released by

using one hole only (Fig. 2).

The tool must be supported with the auxiliary

handle, which can be swiveled and locked into

12 positions 360˚ around the collar mount.

To reposition and/or swivel the handle, rotate

lower portion of hand grip counter-clockwise,

push handle forward until it disengages from

locking teeth in the collar mount, move handle

to the desired position and push handle inward

until it engages into desired position, then

securely tighten hand grip clockwise (Fig. 3).

Your drilling depth can be pre-set and/or

repeated by using the depth gauge.

Setting depth: After the auxiliary handle is

installed, make sure the accessory has been

fully inserted into the chuck before setting the

depth gauge (Fig. 3).

To adjust depth, rotate lower portion of hand

grip counter-clockwise to loosen depth gauge,

slide depth gauge to desired position and

securely tighten hand grip clockwise (Fig. 3).

oper ated from either the right or left side of the

tool.

FOR FORWARD ROTATION: slide switch to

arrow marked forward (Fig. 4).

FOR REVERSE RO TATION: slide the slide

switch to arrow marked re verse. NOTE: Tool

will not operate in middle position (Fig. 5).

CAUTION



Gear selection: The proper gear selection is

directly related to the speed and torque

required for various jobs. The following should

be adhered to when selecting the proper gear:

Speed 1 = low speed with high

torque

Speed 2 = high speed with low

torque

Changing gears: Change gear position only

with the motor at a complete standstill. To

change gears rotate the gear selection dial. If

you have difficulties changing from one gear to

the other, turn the chuck by hand until the

gears engage (Fig. 1).

CHUCK KEY & STORAGE AREA

Your tool is equipped with a chuck key that is

conveniently located on the cord protector

where it is always handy and unlikely to get lost

or misplaced.

You will extend the life of your bits and do

neater work if you always put the bit in

contact with the work before pulling the

trigger. During the oper a tion, hold the tool

firmly and exert light, steady pressure. Too

much pressure at low speed will stall the tool.

Too little pressure will keep the bit from

cutting and cause excess friction by sliding

over the surface. This can be damaging to

both tool and bit.



The trigger controlled variable speed feature

will eliminate the need for center punches in

hard materials. The variable speed trigger

allows you to slowly increase RPM. By using

a slow starting speed, you are able to keep

the bit from “wander ing”. You can increase

the speed as the bit “bites” into the work by

squeezing the trigger.



Always inspect drill bits for excessive wear. Use

only bits that are sharp and in good condition.

TWIST BITS: Available with straight and

reduced shanks for wood and light duty metal

drilling. High speed bits cut faster and last

longer on hard ma terials.

CARBIDE TIPPED BITS: Used for drilling

stone, con crete, plaster, cement and other

unusually hard nonmetals. Use continuous

heavy feed pres sure when employing carbide

tip bits.



Be certain workpiece is clamped or anchored

firm ly. Always apply pressure in a straight line

with the drill bit. Maintain enough pressure to

keep the drill “biting”.

When drilling holes in wood, twist bits can be

used. Twist bits may overheat unless pulled out

frequently to clear chips from flutes.

Use a “back-up” block of wood for work that is

likely to splinter, such as thin materials.

You will drill a cleaner hole if you ease up on

the pressure just before the bit breaks through

the wood. Then complete the hole from the

back side.



There are two rules for drilling hard materials.

First, the harder the material, the greater the

pres sure you need to apply to the tool. Second,

the harder the material, the slower the speed.

Here are a couple of tips for drilling in metal.

Lubri cate the tip of the bit occasionally with

cutting oil except when drilling soft metals such

as alu minum, cop per or cast iron. If the hole to

be drilled is fairly large, drill a smaller hole first,

then enlarge to the required size, it’s often

faster in the long run. Main tain enough

pressure to assure that the bit does not just

spin in the hole. This will dull the bit and greatly

shorten its life.



Use carbide-tipped masonry bit for cinder block,

mortar, common brick, soft stone and other

materials. The amount of pressure to be used

is dependent upon the type of material being

drilled. Soft materials require less pressure

while the hard materials need more pressure to

prevent the drill bit from spinning.

Service

Preventive maintenance

performed by unauthorized

per so n nel may result in misplacing of

internal wires and components which

could cause serious hazard. We

recommend that all tool service be performed

by a Bosch Factory Service Center or Autho -

rized Bosch Service Station.

TOOL LUBRICATION

Your Bosch tool has been properly lubricated

and is ready to use. It is recommended that

tools with gears be regreased with a special

gear lubricant at every brush change.

CARBON BRUSHES

The brushes and commutator in your tool

have been engineered for many hours of

dependable service. To maintain peak

efficiency of the motor, we recommend every

two to six months the brush es be examined.

Only genuine Bosch replace ment brushes

specially designed for your tool should be

used.

BEARINGS

After about 300-400 hours of operation, or at

every second brush change, the bearings

should be replaced at Bosch Factory Service

Center or Au thorized Bosch Service Station.

Bearings which become noisy (due to heavy

load or very abrasive material cut ting) should

be replaced at once to avoid overheating or

motor failure.

Cleaning

To avoid accidents always

dis connect the tool from

the power supply before cleaning or

performing any main tenance. The tool may

be cleaned most effectively with compressed

dry air. Always wear safety gog gles when

cleaning tools with compressed air.

Ventilation openings and switch levers must

be kept clean and free of foreign matter. Do

not at tempt to clean by inserting pointed

objects through openings.

Certain cleaning agents

and sol vents damage

plastic parts. Some of these are: gasoline,

carbon tetrachlo ride, chlo rinated cleaning

solvents, ammonia and house hold detergents

that contain ammonia.

Accessories

If an extension cord is

necessary, a cord with

adequate size conductors that is capable

of carrying the current necessary for your

tool must be used. This will prevent

excessive voltage drop, loss of power or

overheating. Grounded tools must use 3-

wire extension cords that have 3-prong plugs

and receptacles.

NOTE: The smaller the gauge number, the
