The paint bucket handle must always be positioned be-
tween the hooks of the paint-bucket coupling.
– Insert the paint filter 22 to the bottom of the paint bucket.
– Fasten the intake hose 4 in the holding clip 28.
Starting Operation
 Observe correct mains voltage! The voltage of the pow-
er 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.
 Always place the base unit and the paint bucket on a
level surface. When operating the paint roller on a ladder
or an inclined surface, the base unit and the paint bucket
can tip over or fall down. This can lead to injury and con-
tamination from the coating material.
 Do not cover off the base unit. Otherwise, a possible mal-
function cannot be detected.
 Keep other electrical machines/devices away while
using the paint roller or cover them off adequately.
Possibly occurring paint splashes can lead to accidents
and soiling.
 Regularly provide for proper ventilation in the working
range and for sufficient fresh air throughout the com-
plete area.
 Wear safety glasses/goggles. This will protect your eyes
against splashing or ejected paint.
Wear appropriate work clothes. Paint is difficult to remove
from clothing.
Prevent the hose system from being constricted, e. g.,
through crushing, kinking or pulling! Do not stand on the feed
hose 2.
Keep the hose system away from heat sources.
Do not pull the hoses. Especially when moving the base unit,
do not pull it by the feed hose 2. Carry the base unit only by
the carrying handle 19.
Switching On (see figure D)
To save energy, only switch the power tool on when using it.
– Plug the mains plug into a socket outlet.
– Make sure that the pump lock 23 is engaged.
– To start the machine, push the On/Off switch 18 to the "I"
position.
– Grasp the paint applicator 3 or extension 1 by the respec-
tive handle and direct the paint roll 16 toward the surface
to be painted.
– Press the trigger switch 7 on the remote control 8.
Switching Off
– Release the trigger switch 7.
– To switch off the machine, push the On/Off switch 18 to
the "0" position.
– Pull the mains plug from the socket outlet.
– Disengage pump lock 23.
To relieve the lock tension, lightly push the pump lid 20 up-
ward, if required.

Working Advice
Painting
Before painting, moisten new or dried paint rolls with water.
When the paint roll is new or dry, it takes approx. six lanes un-
til the paint application is homogeneous and without streaks.
Filling an empty feed hose takes approx. one minute.
– Press the trigger switch 7 to apply a sufficient amount of
paint on the paint roll 16 and uniformly move the paint roll
up and down.
– Avoid interruptions within the surface to be painted.
Evenly guiding the paint roll will lead to a uniform surface
quality.
Regulating the Paint Amount during Painting
The paint amount can be regulated with the trigger switch.
– Press the trigger switch 7 until the application of paint on
the paint roll is homogeneous.
– Afterwards, release the trigger switch until the application
of paint on the painting surface is no longer opaque.
– Then, refill the paint chamber again with a sufficient
amount of paint (press trigger switch 7 approx. 5 sec-
onds).
Changing the Paint Roll (see figures E1 – E2)
Remove the paint roll from the paint applicator for cleaning or
when the paint roll is worn.
– Pull the roll holders 15 apart and allow the paint roll 16 to
slide out of the paint applicator 3.
To prevent the paint-soaked paint roll from drying out until it
has been washed out, it is best to immerse it into a water
bucket.
Appropriate new paint rolls can be found in our Bosch acces-
sories program.
Paint rolls from other manufacturers can also be used, when
the respective dimensions are observed (see "Technical Da-
ta", page 17).
Insert a new paint roll as follows:
– Pull the roll axle 17 out of the old paint roll 16 and slide the
new paint roll on the roll axle until centred.
– Insert the roll axle 17 on one side in the roll holder 15 until
it fits.
– Press the paint roll into the roll holder of the other side.
The paint roll must be able to rotate freely.
Placing Down the Paint Applicator (see figure F)
– Place down the paint applicator 3 on the edge of the paint
bucket so that it rests on the bucket holder 14.
