Safety Notes

General Power Tool Safety Warnings

WARNING

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.

Work area safety

  • Keep the work area clean and well-lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
  • 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 dust or fumes.
  • Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

Electrical safety

  • 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.
  • 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.
  • Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
  • Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling, or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, and moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
  • 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.
  • 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.

Personal safety

  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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 energizing power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
  • 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.
  • Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
  • 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.
  • 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.

Power tool use and care

  • 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 at which it was designed.
  • Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
  • Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits, etc. in accordance with 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.

Battery tool use and care

  • Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.
  • Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. The use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
  • When the battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
  • Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts the eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

Service

  • 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.

Hammer Safety Warnings

  • Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
  • Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the tool. Loss of control can cause personal injury.
  • Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring. Cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
  • 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.
  • When working with the machine, always hold it firmly with both hands and provide a secure stance. The power tool is guided more securely with both hands.
  • Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with clamping devices or in a vice is held more secure than by hand.
  • 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.
  • Do not open the battery. The danger of short-circuiting.

Protect the battery against heat, e. g., against continuous intense sunlight, fire, water, and moisture. The danger of explosion.

  • In case of damage and improper use of the battery, vapors may be emitted. Ventilate the area and seek medical help in case of complaints. The vapors can irritate the respiratory system.
  • Use the battery only in conjunction with your Bosch power tool. This measure alone protects the battery against dangerous overload.
  • The battery can be damaged by pointed objects such as nails or screwdrivers or by force applied externally. An internal short circuit can occur and the battery can burn, smoke, explode or overheat.

Noise/Vibration Information

Sound emission values are determined according to EN 60745-2-6. Typically the A-weighted noise levels of the product are Sound pressure level 91 dB(A); sound power level 102dB(A). Uncertainty K=3dB.

  • Wear hearing protection: Vibration total values ah (triax vector sum) and uncertainty K determined according to EN 60745-2-6: GBH 18V-26
  • Hammer drilling into concrete: ah=13.0 m/s2, K=1.5 m/s2 Chiselling: ah=8.5 m/s2, K=1.5 m/s2
  • Drilling into metal: ah=2.5 m/s2, K=1.5 m/s2 Screwdriving without impact: ah=2.5 m/s2, K=1.5 m/s2 GBH 18V-26 F
  • Hammer drilling into concrete: ah=12.5 m/s2, K=1.5 m/s2 Chiselling: ah=9.0 m/s2, K=1.5 m/s2
  • Drilling into metal: ah=2.5 m/s2, K=1.5 m/s2
  • Screwdriving without impact: ah=2.5 m/s2, K=1.5 m/s2

The vibration level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a standardized test given in EN 60745 and may be used to compare one tool with another. It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure. The declared vibration emission level represents the main applications of the tool. However, if the tool is used for different applications, with different accessories or insertion tools, or is poorly maintained, the vibration emission may differ. This may significantly increase the exposure level over the total working period. An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also take into account the times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may significantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period. Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of vibration such as: maintaining the tool and the accessories, keeping the hands warm, and organization of work patterns.

Assembly

  • Before any work on the machine (e. g., maintenance, tool change, etc.) as well as during transport and storage, set the rotational direction switch to the center position. Unintentional actuation of the On/Off switch can lead to injuries

Battery Charging (see figure A)

  • Use only the battery chargers listed on the accessories page. Only these battery chargers are matched to the lithium-ion battery of your power tool.

Note: The battery supplied is partially charged. To ensure the full capacity of the battery, completely charge the battery in the battery charger before using your power tool for the first time. The lithium-ion battery can be charged at any time without reducing its service life. Interrupting the charging procedure does not damage the battery. The lithium-ion battery is protected against deep discharging by the “Electronic Cell Protection (ECP)”. When the battery is empty, the machine is switched off by means of a protective circuit: The inserted tool no longer rotates.

  • Do not continue to press the On/Off switch after the machine has been automatically switched off. The battery can be damaged.

Removing the battery
The battery 11 is equipped with two locking levels that should prevent the battery from falling out when pushing the battery unlocking button 18 unintentionally. As long as the battery is inserted in the power tool, it is held in position by means of a spring.

To remove the battery 11:

  • Push the battery against the base of the power tool (1.) and at the same time press the battery unlocking button 18 (2.).
  • Pull the battery off the power tool (3.)

Battery Charge-control Indication (see figure B) The three green LEDs of the battery charge-control indicator 21 indicates the charge condition of the battery 11. The charge condition can be checked only when the battery is removed.

  • Press button 20 to display the charge condition. The charge-control indicator will extinguish automatically after approx. 5 seconds.BOSCH-GBH-Professional-Cordless-Combination-Hammer-fig-18

When no LED lights up after pushing button 20, then the battery is defective and must be replaced. During the charging procedure, the three green LEDs light up one after the other and briefly go out. The battery is fully charged when the three green LEDs light up continuously. The three LEDs go out again approx. 5 minutes after the battery has been fully charged.

Auxiliary Handle

  • Operate your machine only with the auxiliary handle 16.

Changing the position of the auxiliary handle (see figure C)
The auxiliary handle 16 can be set to any position for a secure and low- fatigue working posture.

  • Turn the bottom part of the auxiliary handle 16 in the counter-clockwise direction and swivel the auxiliary handle 16 to the desired position. Then retighten the bottom part of the auxiliary handle 16 by turning in the clockwise direction. Pay attention that the clamping band of the auxiliary handle is positioned in the groove on the housing as intended.

Selecting Drill Chucks and Tools
For hammer drilling and chiseling, SDS-plus tools are required that are inserted in the SDS-plus drill chuck. For drilling without impact in wood, metal, ceramic, and plastics as well as for screwdriving, tools without SDS- plus are used (e.g., drill bits with cylindrical shank). For these tools, a keyless chuck or a key-type drill chuck are required. Inserting/Removing the Key Type Drill Chuck (GBH 18V-26)
To work with tools without SDS-plus (e.g., drills with cylindrical shank), a suitable drill chuck must be mounted (key type drill chuck or keyless chuck, accessories).
Mounting the Key Type Drill Chuck (see figure E)

  • Screw the SDS-plus adapter shank 25 into a key-type drill chuck 24. Secure the key type drill chuck 24 with the securing screw 23. Please observe that the securing screw has a left-hand thread.

Inserting the Key Type Drill Chuck (see figure E)

  • Clean the shank end of the adapter shank and apply a light coat of grease.
  • Insert the key-type drill chuck with the adapter shank into the tool holder with a turning motion until it automatically locks.
  • Check the locking effect by pulling the key-type drill chuck.

Removing the Key Type Drill Chuck

  • Push the locking sleeve 5 toward the rear and pull out the key type drill chuck 24.

Removing/Inserting the Quick Change Chuck (GBH 18V-26 F)
The SDS-plus quick-change chuck 2 can easily be replaced against the quick change keyless chuck 1 provided.

Removing the Quick Change Chuck (see figure F)

  • Pull the lock ring for the quick change chuck 6 toward the rear, hold it in this position and pull off the SDS-plus quick-change chuck 2 or the quick change keyless chuck 1 toward the front.
  • After removing, protect the replacement chuck against contamination.

Inserting the Quick Change Chuck (see figure G)

  • Before inserting, clean the quick change chuck and apply a light coat of grease to the shank end.
  • Grasp the SDS-plus quick-change chuck 2 or the quick change keyless chuck 1 completely with your hand. Slide the quick change chuck with a turning motion onto the drill chuck mounting 26 until a distinct latching noise is heard.
  • The quick-change chuck is automatically locked. Check the locking effect by pulling the quick change chuck.

Changing the Tool
The dust protection cap 4 largely prevents the entry of drilling dust into the tool holder during operation. When inserting the tool, take care that the dust protection cap 4 is not damaged.

  • A damaged dust protection cap should be changed immediately. We recommend having this carried out by an after-sales service.

Changing the Tool (SDS-plus)

Inserting SDS-plus Drilling Tools (see figure H)
The SDS-plus drill chuck allows for simple and convenient changing of drilling tools without the use of additional tools.

  • GBH 18V-26 F: Insert the SDS-plus quick-change chuck 2.
  • Clean and lightly grease the shank end of the tool.
  • Insert the tool in a twisting manner into the tool holder until it latches itself.
  • Check the latching by pulling the tool.

As a requirement of the system, the SDS-plus drilling tool can move freely. This causes a certain radial run-out at no-load, which has no effect on the accuracy of the drill hole, as the drill bit centers itself upon drilling.
Removing SDS-plus Drilling Tools (see figure I) Push back the locking sleeve 5 and remove the tool.

Changing the Tool (without SDS-plus) (GBH 18V-26)

Inserting (see figure J)
Note: Do not use tools without SDS-plus for hammer drilling or chiseling! Tools without SDS-plus and their drill chucks are damaged by hammer drilling or chiseling.

  • Insert a key type drill chuck 24 (see “Inserting/Removing the Key Type Drill Chuck”, page 19).
  • Open the key type drill chuck 24 by turning until the tool can be inserted. Insert the tool.
  • Insert the chuck key into the corresponding holes of the key type drill chuck 24 and clamp the tool uniformly.
  • Turn the mode selector switch 13 to the “drilling” position.

Removing (see figure K)

  • Turn the sleeve of the key type drill chuck 24 with the drill chuck key in an anticlockwise direction until the drilling tool can be removed.

Changing the Tool (without SDS-plus) (GBH 18V-26 F)

Inserting (see figure L)
Note: Do not use tools without SDS-plus for hammer drilling or chiseling! Tools without SDS-plus and their drill chucks are damaged by hammer drilling or chiseling.

  • Insert the quick change keyless chuck 1.
  • Firmly hold the retaining ring 30 of the quick-change chuck. Open the tool holder by turning the front sleeve 29 until the tool can be inserted. Tightly hold the retaining ring 30 and firmly turn the front sleeve 29 in the direction of the arrow until a distinct latching noise can be heard.
  • Check the tight seating by pulling the tool.

Note: If the tool holder was opened to the stop, then the latch-ing noise possibly may be heard while closing the tool holder and the tool holder will not close. In this case, turn the front sleeve 29 once in the opposite direction of the arrow. Afterward, the tool holder can be closed (tightened) again.

  • Turn the mode selector switch 13 to the “drilling” position.

Removing (see figure M)

  • Firmly hold the retaining ring 30 of the quick-change chuck. Open the tool holder by turning the front sleeve 29 in the direction of the arrow until the tool can be removed.

Dust Extraction

  • Dust from materials such as lead-containing coatings, some wood types, minerals, and metal can be harmful to one’s health. Touching or breathing in the dust can cause allergic reactions and/or lead to respiratory infections in the user or bystanders. Certain dust, such as oak or beech dust, is considered carcinogenic, especially in connection with wood-treatment additives (chromate, wood preservative). Materials containing asbestos may only be worked by specialists.
    • As far as possible, use a dust extraction system suitable for the material.
    • Provide for good ventilation of the working place.
    • It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class respirator. Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the materials to be worked on.
  • Prevent dust accumulation at the workplace. Dust can easily ignite.

Dust Extraction with GDE 18V-16 (Accessories) (see figure N) A GDE 18V-16 (accessory) is required for extracting concrete dust and stone dust. This dust extraction system is not suitable for dust from wood, metal, and plastic or for dust that is harmful to one’s health (e.g. asbestos).

Operation

Starting Operation

Inserting the battery

  • Set the rotational direction switch 8 to the center position to protect the power tool against accidental starting.
  • Slide the charged battery 11 from behind into the foot of the power tool. Press the battery fully into the foot until the battery is securely locked.

Setting the operating mode
The operating mode of the power tool is selected with the mode selector switch 13.
Note: Change the operating mode only when the machine is switched off! Otherwise, the machine can be damaged.

  • To change the operating mode, push the release button 12 and turn the mode selector switch 13 to the requested position until it can be heard to latch.

Position for hammer drilling in concrete or stone Vario-Lock position for adjustment of the chiseling position

The mode selector switch 13 does not latch in this position.

Position for chiseling

Reversing the rotational direction
The rotational direction switch 8 is used to reverse the rotational direction of the machine. However, this is not possible with the On/Off switch 10 actuated.

  • Right rotation: Slide the rotational direction switch 8 all the way to the left.
  • Left rotation: Slide the rotational direction switch 8 all the way to the right.
  • Set the direction of rotation for hammer drilling, drilling, and chiseling always to the right rotation.

Switching On and Off
To save energy, only switch the power tool on when using it. – To start the machine, press the On/Off switch 10. When starting the machine for the first time, a starting delay is possible, as the electronic system of the power tool has to configure itself first.

  • To switch off the machine, release the On/Off switch 10.

Setting the Speed/Impact Rate
The speed/impact rate of the switched-on power tool can be variably adjusted, depending on how far the On/Off switch 10 is pressed. Light pressure on the On/Off switch 10 results in a low speed/impact rate. Further pressure on the switch increases the speed/impact rate.

Electronic Precision Control (EPC) (see figure A) EPC assists you when working with impact in sensitive mate-rials by ensuring slow start-up and reduced operating speed.

  • Slide the EPC switch 19 to the desired position.
  • Position for maximum operating speed

Position for slow start-up and reduced operating speedBOSCH-GBH-
Professional-Cordless-Combination-Hammer-fig-23 Overload Clutch

  • If the tool insert becomes caught or jammed, the drive to the drill spindle is interrupted. Because of the forces that occur, always hold the power tool firmly with both hands and provide for a secure stance.
  • If the power tool jams, switch the machine off and loosen the tool insert. When switching the machine on with the drilling tool jammed, high reaction torques can occur.

Rapid Shut-off (Kickback Control)
The rapid shut-off feature (Kickback Control) provides better control over the power tool to increase user protection compared to power tools that do not have Kickback Control. The power tool will switch off if it suddenly and unforeseeably rotates around the drilling axis.

To restart the machine , release the On/Off switch and then actuate again.
The rapid shut-off is indicated by the flashing of the work light 14 on the power tool.

Working Advice

Adjusting the Drilling Depth (see figure O) The required drilling depth X can be set with depth stop 17.

  • Press the button for the depth stop adjustment 15 and insert the depth stop into the auxiliary handle 16. The knurled surface of the depth stop 17 must face downward.
  • Insert the SDS-plus drilling tool to the stop into the SDS-plus tool holder 3. Otherwise, the movability of the SDS-plus drilling tool can lead to incorrect adjustment of the drilling depth.
  • Pull out the depth stop until the distance between the tip of the drill bit and the tip of the depth stop corresponds with the desired drilling depth X.

Changing the Chiselling Position (Vario-Lock)
The chisel can be locked in 44 positions. In this manner, the optimum working position can be set for each application.

  • Insert the chisel into the tool holder.
  • Turn the mode selector switch 13 to the “Vario-Lock” posi-tion (see “Setting the operating mode”, page 20).
  • Turn the tool holder to the desired chiseling position.
  • Turn the mode selector switch 13 to the “chiseling” posi-tion. The tool holder is now locked.
  • For chiselling, set the rotation direction to right rotation.

Inserting Screwdriver Bits (see figure P)

  • Apply the power tool to the screw/nut only when it is switched off. Rotating tool inserts can slip off.
    To work with screwdriver bits, a universal bit holder 31 with an SDS-plus shank (accessory) is required.

  • Clean the shank end of the adapter shank and apply a light coat of grease.

  • Insert the universal bit holder with a turning motion into the tool holder until it automatically locks.

  • Check the locking effect by pulling the universal bit holder.

  • Insert a screwdriver bit into the universal bit holder. Use only screwdriver bits that match the screw head.

  • To remove the universal bit holder, pull the locking sleeve 5 toward the rear and remove the universal bit holder 31 out of the tool holder.

Vibration Damper

BOSCH-GBH-Professional-Cordless-Combination-Hammer-
fig-24

The integrated vibration damper reduces occurring vibrations. The soft-grip handle increases the safety against slipping off and thus provides for a better grip and handling of the power tool.

Recommendations for Optimal Handling of the Battery
Protect the battery against moisture and water. Store the battery only within a temperature range between –20 °C and 50 °C. As an example, do not leave the battery in the car in summer. Occasionally clean the venting slots of the battery using a soft, clean, and dry brush.  A significantly reduced working period after charging indicates that the battery is used and must be replaced. Observe the notes for disposal.
