Additional Safety And Working Instructions - Bosch PSB 14,4 LI-2 Originalbetriebsanleitung

Safety Warnings for Drills and Screw-
driver
 Wear ear protectors when impact drilling. Exposure to
noise can cause hearing loss.
 Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when
performing an operation where the cutting accessory
or fastener may contact hidden wiring. Cutting accesso-
ry and fasteners contacting a "live" wire may make ex-
posed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give
the operator an electric shock.
 Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the tool. Loss
of control can cause personal injury.
 Use appropriate detectors to determine if utility lines
are hidden in the work area or call the local utility com-
pany for assistance. Contact with electric lines can lead
to fire and electric shock. Damaging a gas line can lead to
explosion. Penetrating a water line causes property dam-
age.
 Switch off the power tool immediately when the tool in-
sert jams. Be prepared for high reaction torque that
can cause kickback. The tool insert jams when:
— the power tool is subject to overload or
— it becomes wedged in the workpiece.
 Hold the machine with a firm grip. High reaction torque
can briefly occur while driving in and loosening screws.
 Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with clamp-
ing devices or in a vice is held more secure than by hand.
 Do not open the battery. Danger of short-circuiting.
Protect the battery against heat, e. g., against
continuous intense sunlight, fire, water, and
moisture. Danger of explosion.
 In case of damage and improper use of the battery, va-
pours may be emitted. Ventilate the area and seek
medical help in case of complaints. The vapours can irri-
tate the respiratory system.
 Use the battery only in conjunction with your Bosch
power tool. This measure alone protects the battery
against dangerous overload.
 Use only original Bosch batteries with the voltage list-
ed on the nameplate of your power tool. When using oth-
er batteries, e.g. imitations, reconditioned batteries or
other brands, there is danger of injury as well as property
damage through exploding batteries.
Additional Safety and Working In-
structions
 Dusts from materials such as lead-containing coatings,
some wood types, minerals and metal can be harmful to
one's health and cause allergic reactions, lead to res-
piratory infections and/or cancer. Materials containing
asbestos may only be worked by specialists.
– Provide for good ventilation of the working place.
– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class respirator.
Bosch Power Tools
Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the
materials to be worked.
 To save energy, only switch the power tool on when using it.
 Prevent dust accumulation at the workplace. Dusts can
easily ignite.
 Before any work on the machine (e. g., maintenance,
tool change, etc.) as well as during transport and stor-
age, set the rotational direction switch to the centre
position. Unintentional actuation of the On/Off switch can
lead to injuries.
 The battery is supplied partially charged. To ensure full
battery capacity, completely charge the battery in the
battery charger before using for the first time.
 The battery is equipped with a NTC temperature con-
trol which allows charging only within a temperature
range of between 0 °C and 45 °C. A long battery ser-
vice life is achieved in this manner.
 Read the operating instructions of the battery charger.
 Apply the power tool to the screw only when it is
switched off. Rotating tool inserts can slip off.
 Adjust the gear switch only when the machine is at a
complete stop.
 Always push the gear selector and turn the operating
mode selector switch through to the stop. Otherwise,
the machine can become damaged.
 When the On/Off switch is pressed halfway or com-
pletely, the battery charge-control indicator indicates
the charge condition of the battery for several sec-
onds. It consists of 3 green LEDs.
LED
Continuous lighting 3 x green
Continuous lighting 2 x green
Continuous lighting 1 x green
Slow flashing 1 x green
 The 3 LEDs of the battery charge-control indicator
flash rapidly when the battery temperature is not with-
in the operating temperature range of –30 to +65°C,
and/or when the overload protection has responded.
