Run-out brake
Upon releasing the on/off switch (11), the drill chuck is
slowed down, which prevents the application tool from con-
tinuing to rotate.
When driving in screws, you should therefore only release
the on/off switch (11) once the screw has been inserted
flush into the workpiece. This way, the head of screw will not
penetrate the workpiece.
Temperature-dependent overload protection
In normal conditions of use, the power tool cannot be over-
loaded. If the power tool is overloaded or the permitted bat-
tery temperature is exceeded, the electronics of the power
tool will switch off until the temperature returns to within the
optimum operating temperature range.
Overload clutch
The power tool is equipped with an overload
clutch (anti-rotation) to limit high torque reac-
tions.
If the application tool jams or snags, the power trans-
u
mission to the drill spindle will be interrupted. Always
hold the power tool firmly with both hands to with-
stand the forces this may create and adopt a position
with stable footing.
Switch the power tool off immediately and remove the
u
application tool if the power tool becomes blocked.
Switching on when the drilling tool is blocked may
cause high torque reactions.
Fully automatic spindle lock (Auto-Lock)
The drill spindle, and therefore the tool holder, are locked
when the on/off switch (11) is not pressed.
This allows screws to be driven in even when the battery is
discharged and enables the power tool to be used as a
screwdriver.

Practical advice

Only apply the power tool to the screw when the tool
u
is switched off. Rotating application tools can slip off.
After working at a low speed for an extended period, you
should operate the power tool at the maximum speed for ap-
proximately three minutes without load to cool it down.
When drilling into metal, only use sharpened HSS drills (HSS
= high-speed steel) which are in perfect condition. The
Bosch accessory range guarantees appropriate quality.
Before screwing larger, longer screws into hard materials, it
is advisable to pre-drill a pilot hole with the core diameter of
the thread to approx. 2/3 of the screw length.

Maintenance and Service

Maintenance and Cleaning

Remove the battery from the power tool before carry-
u
ing out work on the power tool (e.g. maintenance,
changing tool, etc.). The battery should also be re-

moved for transport and storage. There is risk of injury
from unintentionally pressing the on/off switch.
To ensure safe and efficient operation, always keep
u
the power tool and the ventilation slots clean.
