DRILLING WOOD OR PLASTIC
If backing block is not used, ease up on the
pressure just before the bit breaks through
the wood to avoid splintering. Complete the
hole from the opposite side immediately
after the point breaks through. If bit binds,
reverse the drilling operation to help remove
the bit from the work.
DRILLING METAL
Make a center punch in the material for
easier starting. Use enough pressure to keep
the bit cutting. If the bit is allowed to merely
spin in the hole, it will become dull within a
short time. When drilling a larger hole, it is
faster and easier on your power pack to first
make a smaller hole and enlarge it to the
required size. Lubricate the tip of the bit
occasionally with CUTTING OIL for easier
metal drilling. If bit binds, reverse the drilling
to help remove the bit from the work.
DRILLING MASONRY
Use carbide-tipped masonry bit for cinder
block, mortar, common brick, soft stone and
other materials. The amount of pressure to
be used is dependent upon the type of
material being drilled. Soft materials require
less pressure while the hard materials need
more pressure to prevent the drill bit from
spinning.
c. Check battery pack terminals for dirt.
Clean with cotton swab and alcohol if
necessary.
d. If you still do not get proper charging,
take or send tool, battery pack and charger
to your local Bosch Service Center. See
“Tools, Electric” in the Yellow Pages for
names and addresses.
Note: Use of chargers or battery packs not
sold by Bosch may void the warranty.
