Left rotation: Press the rotational direction switch 5
through to the left stop (for loosening and unscrewing
screws and nuts).
Switching On and Off
To start the machine, press the On/Off switch 4 and
keep it depressed.
To lock the pressed On/Off switch 4, press the lock-
on button 3.
To switch off the machine, release the On/Off switch
4 or when it is locked with the lock-on button 3, briefly
press the On/Off switch 4 and then release it.
Adjusting the Speed (GBM 450 RE)
The speed of the switched on power tool can be varia-
bly adjusted, depending on how far the On/Off switch
4 is pressed.
Light pressure on the On/Off switch 4 results in a low
rotational speed. Further pressure on the switch results
in an increase in speed.
Operating Instructions
Apply the power tool to the screw/nut only
when it is switched off. Rotating tool inserts can
slip off.
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.
Twist drills from 2.5–10 mm can easily be sharpened
with the drill bit sharpener (see accessories).
We recommend the use of a drill stand (see accesso-
ries) for work where greater precision is particularly
required.
The machine vice, which is available as an accessory,
enables secure clamping of workpieces. This prevents
the workpiece from turning and any accidents this
would cause.
Belt Clip
With the belt clip 2, the machine can be hung onto a
belt. The user has both hands free and the machine is
always at hand.
