Maintenance and service

Maintenance and Cleaning

Pull the plug out of the socket before carrying out any
u
work on the power tool.
To ensure safe and efficient operation, always keep
u
the power tool and the ventilation slots clean.
In order to avoid safety hazards, if the power supply cord
needs to be replaced, this must be done by Bosch or by an
after-sales service centre that is authorised to repair Bosch
power tools.
Replacing carbon brushes
Indicator for carbon brush change:
The indicator for changing the carbon brush (14) will start to
light up red approx. eight hours before the power tool auto-
matically switches off as a result of the carbon brushes wear-
ing out. You can continue to use the power tool until it
switches off.
The power tool should be sent to the Bosch after-sales ser-
vice. For addresses, see the section "After-Sales Service and
Application Service".
Never replace only a single carbon brush.
Note: Only use carbon brushes supplied by Bosch and inten-
ded specifically for your product.
– Unscrew the carbon brush cover (1) using a suitable
screwdriver.
– Replace the spring-loaded carbon brushes and screw the
cap back on again.
Bosch Power Tools
Adjusting the Guide Rail Gap (see figures E1 – E3)
If the power tool vibrates strongly when drilling or a gap is
visible on the guide rail, the width of the guide rail gap must
be adjusted. This prevents application tools from being
snapped off and avoids damage to the power tool.
– Pull the mains plugs out of the plug socket, remove ap-
plication tools and the coolant supply system and place
the power tool down on a firm, level and horizontal sur-
face.
– Turn the drill unit (44) using the crank handle (4) up-
wards, until the recess is above the uppermost screw
(45).
– Unscrew the upper screw (45) for the left guide rail using
the hex key (4 mm) (25).
– Turn the drill unit (44) all the way up using the crank
handle (4).
– Unscrew the three lower screws (45) for the left guide rail
using the hex key (4 mm) (25).
– Tighten the four screws (46) using the hex key (3 mm)
(25) while turning the drill unit (44) up and down using
the crank handle (4). Adjust the required feed force while
doing so.
– Turn the drill unit all the way up and tighten the three
lower screws (45) for the left guide rail using the hex key
(4 mm) (25).
– Turn the drill unit all the way down and tighten the upper
screw (45) for the left guide rail using the hex key (4 mm)
(25).
Adjusting the laser (see figure F)
To ensure precise drilling, the laser beams must be checked
after intensive use and adjusted as necessary.
– To switch on the laser, push the laser on/off switch (7)
into position "I".
– Unscrew the laser cover (47).
– Slightly undo the screws for the clip (49).
– Move the laser cross right or left by turning the screw
(50) in the appropriate direction.
– Move the laser cross towards or away from the tool by
turning the screw (51) in the appropriate direction.
– Retighten the screws for the clip (49).
