General Power Tool Safety Warnings

Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire, and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

1. Work area safety
2. Keep the work area clean and well-lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
3. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks that may ignite the dust or fumes.
4. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
5. Electrical safety
6. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce the risk of electric shock.
7. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
8. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
9. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep the cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, and moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
10. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. The use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
11. If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. The use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
12. Personal safety
13. Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
14. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust masks, non-skid safety shoes, hard hats, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
15. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to a power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
16. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
17. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
18. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
19. If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. The use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
20. Power tool use and care
21. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
22. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
23. Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally
24. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
25. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
26. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
27. Use the power tool, accessories tool bits, etc. by these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
28. Service
29. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained

Machine-specific Safety Warnings

• Always use the auxiliary handle supplied with the machine. Loss of control can cause personal injury.

• Use appropriate detectors to determine if utility lines are hidden in the work area or call the local utility company for assistance. Contact with electric lines can lead to fire and electric shock. Damaging a gas line can lead to an explosion. Penetrating a water line causes property damage or may cause an electric shock.

• Switch off the power tool immediately when the tool inserts jams. Be prepared for high reaction torque that can cause kickback. The tool insert jams when:

  • the power tool is subject to overload or
  • it becomes wedged in the workpiece.

• Hold the power tool only by the insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own power cord. Contact with a “live” wire will also make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and shock the operator.

• When working with the machine, always hold it firmly with both hands and provide for a secure stance. The power tool is guided more secure with both hands.

• Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with clamping devices or in a vice is held more securely than by hand.

• Do not work materials containing asbestos.
  Asbestos is considered carcinogenic.

• Take protective measures when dust can develop during working that is harmful to one’s health, combustible or explosive. Example: Some dusts are regarded as carcinogenic. Wear a dust mask and work with dust/chip extraction when connectable.

• Keep your workplace clean. Blends of materials are particularly dangerous. Dust from light alloys can burn or explode.

• Always wait until the machine has come to a complete stop before placing it down. The tool insert can jam and lead to loss of control over the power tool.

• Never use the machine with a damaged cable.
  Do not touch the damaged cable and pull the mains plug when the cable is damaged while working. Damaged cables increase the risk of an electric shock.

Noise/Vibration Information

• Measured values determined according to EN 60745.
• Typically the A-weighted sound pressure level of the machine is 77 dB(A). Uncertainty K=3 dB.
• The noise level when working can exceed 85 dB(A).

Wear hearing protection!

• Overall vibrational values (vector sum of three directions) determined according to EN 60745:
• Drilling in metal: Vibrational emission value ah=7.5 m/s2, uncertainty K=2.4 m/s2.
• The vibration emission level given in\ this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a standardised test given in EN 60745 and may be used to compare one tool with another.
• The vibration emission level will vary because of the ways in which a power tool can be used and may increase above the level given in this information sheet.
• This could lead to a significant underestimate of exposure when the tool is used regularly in such a way.
  Note : To be accurate, an estimation of the level of exposure to vibration experienced during a given period of work should also take into account the times when the tool is switched off and when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may significantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period.

Mounting the Drill Chuck
The keyless chuck/key type drill chuck is mounted in reverse order.

• The drill chuck must be tightened with a tightening torque of approx. 15 Nm.

Operation

Starting Operation

• Observe correct mains voltage! The voltage of the power 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.
• Reversing the Rotational Direction (GBM 10 RE/ GBM 10 SRE/GBM 10-2 RE/GBM 13-2 RE)
• The rotational direction switch 7 is used to reverse the rotational direction of the machine. However, this is not possible with the On/Off switch 6 actuated.
• Right rotation: Press the rotational direction switch 7 through to the right stop (for drilling and driving screws).
• Left rotation: Press the rotational direction switch 7 through to the left stop (for loosening and unscrewing screws and nuts).

Gear Selection, Mechanical
(GBM 10-2 RE/ GBM 13-2/GBM 13-2 RE)

• The gear selector 8 can be actuated at standstill or when the machine is running. However, this should not be done while operating at full load or maximum speed.
• Two speed ranges can be preselected with the gear selector 8.

Gear I:
Low speed range; for working with large drilling diameter or for driving in screws.

Gear II:
High speed range; for working with small drilling diameter. If the gear selector 8 cannot be fully engaged, lightly rotate the drive spindle with the drill bit by twisting the drill chuck.

Preselecting the Speed (GBM 10-2 RE/ GBM 13-2 RE)

• The required speed can be preselected with the thumbwheel 5 (also while running).
• The required speed depends on the material to be worked and the diameter of the tool. Determine the optimum setting through practical testing.

Switching On and Off

• To start the machine, press the On/Off switch 6 and keep it depressed.
• To lock the pressed On/Off switch 6, press the lockon button 4.
• To switch off the machine, release the On/Off switch 6 or when it is locked with the lock-on button 4, briefly press the On/Off switch 6 and then release it.

Adjusting the Speed (GBM 10 RE/ GBM 10 SRE/GBM 10-2 RE/GBM 13-2 RE)
The speed of the switched on power tool can be variably adjusted, depending on how far the On/Off switch 6 is pressed.
Light pressure on the On/Off switch 6 results in a low rotational speed. Further pressure on the switch results in an increase in speed.

Setting the Operating Mode (GBM 10 SRE)
With the “drilling/screwdriving” selector switch 20, it is possible to select between a permanent and a pressure- dependent connection between the drive and the drill spindle.

Drilling

• Set the selector switch 20 to the “drilling” symbol.
• The drill spindle is permanently connected to the drive.
• This setting is suitable for drilling as well as for individual screwdriving without screwing-depth stop 21.

Screwdriving
Set the selector switch 20 to the “screwdriving” symbol.

• The drill spindle is not engaged until feed pressure is applied. This setting is suitable for serial screwdriving with constant screw-in depth in connection with the depth stop 12 as well as for individual screwdriving without depth stop 12.
• The screwing procedure begins when the applied pressure is high enough.
• The selector switch 20 can be felt to engage and can also be actuated when the machine is running.
• If the selector switch 20 cannot be pushed through to the stop, lightly rotate the drill spindle with the tool bit.

Screwdriving with Screwing-depth Stop (GBM 10 SRE) (see figure G)

• Remove the drill chuck together with the quick-change adapter 19. Insert a screwdriver bit 15. Slide on the screwing-depth stop 21 to the stop.
• Turning the adjustment sleeve 22 in clockwise direction results in a greater screw-in depth; turning in anticlockwise direction reduces the screw-in depth.
• The required setting is best determined by testing

Apply the power tool to the screw/nut only when it is switched off. Rotating tool inserts can slip off.

• For drilling in metal, use only perfectly sharpened HSS drill bits (HSS=high-speed steel). The appropriate quality is guaranteed by the Bosch accessories program.
• Twist drills from 2.5–10 mm can easily be sharpened with the drill bit sharpener (see accessories).
• We recommend the use of a drill stand (see accessories) for work where greater precision is particularly required.
• The machine vice, which is available as an accessory, enables secure clamping of workpieces. This prevents the workpiece from turning and any accidents thiswould cause.
• Belt Clip (GBM 10/GBM 10 RE) (see figure H) With the belt clip 23, the machine can be hung onto a belt. The user has both hands free and the machine is always at hand.
