bull points, chisels, spades, gouges, etc. the
“Hammer Only” mode must be selected.

The vario-lock can be set in any one of twelve
positions (30˚ increments). Choose a position
which is best suited for your operation. The
Vario-Lock position is intended for use with
chipping bits such as bull points, spades,
gouges, etc.
Rotate the selector dial, to the “vario-lock”
setting. Next, rotate the locking sleeve,
along with the accessory, to the desired
position. Then turn the selector dial to the
“hammer only” setting and slightly turn the
locking sleeve to have it automatically lock
into a definite position.
!
CAUTION
#!
The integrated vibration damper in the main
handle and hammer mechanism reduces
vibrations (Fig. 1).
"!
The tool has a internal pre-set slip clutch. The
output spindle will stop rotating if the accessory
binds and overloads the tool.
!!
Following a few simple tips will reduce wear
on the tool and the chance of injury to the
operator.
The high efficiency available from the BOSCH
Rotary Hammer can only be obtained if sharp
and undamaged drilling tools are used. Note
that the costs for maintaining sharp drilling
tools are more than offset by the time lost in
operating dull drilling tools.
All grease packed hammers require a short
time to warm up. Depending on the
temperature, this time will vary from
approximately 15 seconds (90° F) to 2
minutes (32° F). The tool will exert its full
power and hammering action after the heat
from impact hammering has spread, softening
the grease.
!!
Used for drilling stone, concrete, cement,
brick, cinder block and other unusually hard
non-metals. The Rotary Hammer is designed
for “SDS” Carbide Tipped Bits up to 3/4 inch
diameter.
$"
The 3 Jaw Chuck can convert your tool for
use with straight shank bits.
You will extend the life of your bits and do
neater work if you always put the bit in contact
with the workpiece BEFORE pulling the
trigger. During operation, hold the drill firmly
and exert moderate, steady pressure. Too
much pressure at low speed will stall the

hammer. Too little pressure will keep the bit
from cutting and cause excess friction by
sliding over the surface. This can be
damaging to the drill and bit.
Shanks of all drill bits should be wiped clean
prior to using and immediately after removing.
! !"!
!
1. Some materials require slow drilling
speeds; whereas, others require higher speed
to produce the best results.
2. All work must be supported or secured
before drilling and steady, even pressure
applied in line with the drill bit.
3. As the drill bit cuts through the opposite
side, reduce the pressure and continue
running the drill as the bit is withdrawn.
Materials such as glass, porcelain, ceramics,
tiles, plastics, etc., should be drilled at low
speeds with specially designed drill bits and
lubricants.
$ !
If backing block is not used, ease up on the
pressure just before the bit breaks through the
wood to avoid splintering. Complete the hole
from the opposite side immediately after the
point breaks through. If bit binds, reverse the
drilling operation to help remove the bit from
the work.
!
Make a center punch in the material for easier
starting. Use enough pressure to keep the bit
cutting. If the bit is allowed to merely spin in
the hole, it will become dull within a short time.
When drilling a larger hole, it is faster and
easier on your power pack to first make a
smaller hole and enlarge it to the required
size. Lubricate the tip of the bit occasionally
with CUTTING OIL for easier metal drilling. If
bit binds, reverse the drilling to help remove
the bit from the work.
&
Use carbide-tipped SDS-plus
®
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.

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.
"
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.
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.
