Assembly
Battery Charging (see figure A)
A battery that is new or has not been used for a
longer period does not develop its full capacity
until after approx. 5 charging/discharging cy-
cles.
Do not recharge the batteries after use if they
are not to be used for an extended period of
time. Recharge the batteries as and when they
are required.
To remove the battery 3, press the unlocking
buttons 4 and pull the battery out of the ma-
chine to the rear. Do not exert any force.
Insert the battery 3 into the die battery charge
cradle 7. Plug the plug connector for the charger
6 into the socket of the battery charge cradle 7.
The battery is equipped with a NTC temperature
control which allows charging only within a tem-
perature range of between 0 °C and 45 °C. A
long battery service life is achieved in this man-
ner.
A significantly reduced working period after
charging indicates that the battery is used and
must be replaced.
Observe the notes for disposal.
Loading the Magazine (see figure B–C)
Before any work on the power tool, remove
the battery.
Use only original Bosch accessories. The
precision components of the tacker, such as
magazine, striker and impact channel, are
adapted for Bosch staples, nails or pins. Oth-
er manufacturers use different steel qualities
and measures.
Press the latching lever 11 and keep it de-
pressed.
Pull out the magazine 10.
You can only take out the magazine 10 when
the protective cap 12 is mounted onto the
tacker head 5, the open side oriented to the
back, as shown in the picture.

Insert the staple strip 9 or the nail strip 8.
Hold the tacker slightly inclined while insert-
ing the nail strip 8 so that nails rest against
the side wall.
Slide the magazine 10 against the tacker
head 5 to the stop and press the latching le-
ver 11 until it engages.
Operation

Starting Operation

Inserting the Battery
Insert the charged battery 3 into the handle until
it can be felt to engage and faces flush against
the handle.
Switching On and Off
At first, firmly place the tacker head 5 against
the workpiece until it is pushed in a few millim-
eters. Afterwards, briefly press the trigger 2
and then release again.
The trigger lock, which is connected with the
movable tacker head 5, prevents unintentional
shot actuation when the trigger 2 is inadvertent-
ly pressed.
Hammer-force Preselection
With the thumbwheel for hammer-force prese-
lection 1, it is possible to preselect the required
hammer force in steps.
The required hammer force depends on the
length of the staples or nails, and on the
strength of the material. The optimal hammer-
force setting is best determined through practi-
cal testing.
