Operating Instructions
The Bosch model PS10 Cordless Drill/Driver
has a collet that accepts only standard 1/4”
hexagonal shank accessories with power
groove. The low RPM capability of this model
is not a deficiency. On the contrary, low speed
means high torque and high torque is a definite
plus for efficient drilling and driving. The low
speed also provides more control to prevent
stripout of the screw and damage to the work
surface.
COLLET LOCKING SLEEVE
To avoid loss of control,
ensure bit is locked in collet
by pulling on bit after it has been inserted.
Your tool is equipped with a quick release
collet locking sleeve. To insert a accessory,
simply pull collet locking sleeve forward, insert
desired accessory into chuck and release
collet locking sleeve (Fig. 2).
To remove an accessory, pull collet locking
sleeve forward and simply remove it.

trigger switch. The tool speed can be controlled
from minimum to maximum nameplate rated
RPM by the pressure you apply to the trigger.

release pressure to decrease speed (Fig. 3).
REVERSING SWITCH BUTTON

the trigger switch and is used to reverse
rotation of the bit. For forward rotation, (with the
chuck pointed away from you) move button to
the far left. For reverse rotation move the button
to the far right (Fig. 3).
BRAKE

the brake to stop the chuck quickly. This is
especially useful in the repetitive driving and
removal of screws.
