Before using an accessory, ! WARNING be certain that its maximum

safe operating speed is not exceeded by the nameplate speed of the tool. Do not exceed the recommended wheel diameter.

SANDING AND POLISHING

Fine sanding and polishing require “touch”. Select the most efficient speed.

When using polishing bonnets, always be sure the excess string that secures the bonnet is tucked well within the bonnet during operation.

WIRE BRUSHES

Work with brushes requires high speeds.

BRUSHING PRESSURE

1.Remember, the tips of a wire brush do the work. Operate the brush with the lightest pressure so only the tips of the wire come in contact with the work.

2.If heavier pressures are used, the wires will be overstressed, resulting in a wiping action; and if this is continued, the life of the brush will be shortened due to wire fatigue.

3.Apply the brush to the work in such a way that as much of the brush face as possible is in full contact with the work. Applying the side

or edge of the brush to the work will result in wire breakage and shortened brush life.

CORRECT: Wire tips doing the work.

INCORRECT: Excessive pressure can cause wire breakage.

RUNNING NUTS AND BOLTS

Variable speed control must be used with caution for driving nuts and bolts with socket set attachments. The technique is to start slowly, increasing speed as the nut or bolt runs down. Set the nut or bolt snugly by slowing the drill to a stop. If this procedure is not followed, the tool will have a tendency to torque or twist in your hands when the nut or bolt seats.

Maintenance

Service

!WARNING NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. Preventive

maintenance performed by unauthorized personnel may result in misplacing of internal wires and components which could cause serious hazard. We recom- mend that all tool service be performed by a Bosch Factory Service Center or Authorized Bosch Service Station. SERVICEMEN: Disconnect tool and/or charger from power source before servicing.

BATTERIES

Be alert for battery packs that are nearing their end of life. If you notice decreased tool performance or significantly shorter

running time between charges then it is time to replace the battery pack. Failure to do so can cause the tool to operate improperly or damage the charger.

TOOL LUBRICATION

Your Bosch tool has been properly lubricated and is ready for use.

D.C. MOTORS

The motor in your tool has been engineered for many hours of dependable service. To maintain peak efficiency of the motor, we recommend it be examined every six months. Only a genuine Bosch replacement motor specially designed for your tool should be used.
