External Dust Extraction (see figure F)
Slide the extraction adapter 17 onto the outlet piece 15. En-
sure that the latching levers of the extraction adapter engage.
The extraction adapter 17 accepts a vacuum hose with a di-
ameter of 19 mm.
An overview for connecting to different vacuum cleaners can
be found at the end of these operating instructions.
For removal of the extraction adapter 17, press the latching
levers together at the rear and pull the extraction adapter off.
The vacuum cleaner must be suitable for the material being
worked.
When vacuuming dry dust that is especially detrimental to
health or carcinogenic, use a special vacuum cleaner.
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.
Switching On and Off
To start the machine, tilt the On/Off switch 8 toward the right
to the "I" position.
To switch off the machine, tilt the On/Off switch 8 toward the
left to the "0" position.
To save energy, only switch the power tool on when using it.
Battery Charge-control Indication
The three green LEDs of the battery charge-control indicator
10 indicate the charge condition of the battery 11. For safety
reasons, it is only possible to check the status of the charge
condition when the machine is at a standstill.
Press button 9 to indicate the charge condition. This is also
possible when the battery 11 is removed.
LED
Continuous lighting 3 x green
Continuous lighting 2 x green
Continuous lighting 1 x green
Flashing light 1 x green
When no LED lights up after pushing button 9, then the bat-
tery is defective and must be replaced.
Temperature Dependent Overload Protection
When using as intended for, the power tool cannot be subject
to overload. When the load is too high or the allowable battery
temperature is exceeded, the electronic control switches off
the power tool until the temperature is in the optimum tem-
perature range again.

Working Advice

 Wait until the machine has come to a standstill before
placing it down.
The removal capacity during sanding is mainly determined by
the selection of the sanding sheet.
Only flawless sanding sheets achieve good sanding capacity
and extend the service life of the machine.
Pay attention to apply uniform sanding pressure; this increas-
es the working life of the sanding sheets.
Intensifiying the sanding pressure does not lead to an in-
crease of the sanding capacity, but to increased wear of the
machine and the sanding sheet.
A sanding sheet that has been used for metal should not be
used for other materials.
Use only original Bosch sanding accessories.
Recommendations for Optimal Handling of the Battery
Protect the battery against moisture and water.
Store the battery only within a temperature range between
–20 °C and 50 °C. As an example, do not leave the battery in
the car in summer.
Occasionally clean the venting slots of the battery using a soft,
clean and dry brush.
A significantly reduced working period after charging indi-
cates that the battery is used and must be replaced.
Observe the notes for disposal.

Maintenance and Service

Maintenance and Cleaning
 Before any work on the machine (e. g. maintenance,
changing the tool, etc.) as well as during its transport
and storage, lock the On/Off switch in the off position.
There is danger of injury when the On/Off switch is unin-
tentionally actuated.
 For safe and proper working, always keep the machine
and ventilation slots clean.
