Dust/Chip Extraction; Starting Operation - Bosch GSH 5 CE Professional Originalbetriebsanleitung

Dust/Chip Extraction

Dusts from materials such as lead-containing
coatings, some wood types, minerals and
metal can be harmful to one's health. Touch-
ing or breathing-in the dusts can cause aller-
gic reactions and/or lead to respiratory infec-
tions of the user or bystanders.
Certain dusts, such as oak or beech dust, are
considered as carcinogenic, especially in
connection with wood-treatment additives
(chromate, wood preservative). Materials
containing asbestos may only be worked by
specialists.
– Provide for good ventilation of the work-
ing place.
– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-
class respirator.
Observe the relevant regulations in your
country for the materials to be worked.
Operation

Starting Operation

Observe correct mains voltage! The voltage
of the power source must agree with the
voltage specified on the nameplate of the
machine. Power tools marked with 230 V
can also be operated with 220 V.
Switching On and Off
To start the machine, press the On/Off switch 5
at the top (I) until it locks.
To switch off the machine, press the On/Off
switch 5 at the bottom (0) and release it.
For low temperatures, the power tool reaches
the full hammer/impact capacity only after a cer-
tain time.
Bosch Power Tools
Setting the Speed/Impact Rate
The electronic control enables stepless speed
and impact preselection in accordance with the
material to be worked.
The constant electronic control keeps the prese-
lected speed and impact rate nearly constant
between no-load and load conditions.
The maximum hammering capacity is achieved
when the thumbwheel 6 is set to position "6".
For lower speed settings, the hammering capac-
ity is lower due to technical reasons.
Select the speed with the thumbwheel 6 accord-
ing to the material.
When plugging the plug into the socket outlet or
after a power failure, the constant electronic
control automatically sets the highest speed
and impact rate. This ensures working at opti-
mum performance despite too low preadjust-
ment of the thumbwheel 6.
The data in the following table are recommend-
ed values.
Application
Working roughcast/light building
materials
Removing tiles
Working brick
Working concrete
Changing the Chiselling Position (Vario-Lock)
The chisel can be locked in 12 positions. In this
manner, the optimum working position can be
set for each application.
Insert the chisel into the tool holder.
Push the chisel adjustment ring 3 forward and
turn the chisel to the required position with the
chisel adjustment ring 3.
Release the chisel adjustment ring 3 and turn
