When vacuuming dry dust that is especially det-
rimental to health or carcinogenic, use a special
vacuum cleaner.
Operation
Starting Operation
Inserting the Battery
Use only original Bosch lithium ion batter-
ies with the voltage listed on the nameplate
of your power tool. Using other batteries can
lead to injuries and pose a fire hazard.
Note: Use of batteries not suitable for the ma-
chine can lead to malfunctions of or cause dam-
age to the power tool.
Insert the charged battery 2 into the handle until
it can be felt to engage and faces flush against
the handle.
Switching On and Off
To start the machine, push the On/Off switch 6
forward so that the "I" is indicated on the
switch.
To switch off the machine, push the On/Off
switch 6 toward the rear so that the "0" is indi-
cated on the switch.
The Li-ion battery is protected against deep dis-
charging 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.
Note: If the machine should automatically switch
off because of a discharged or overheated bat-
tery, make sure to set the machine's On/Off
switch 6 to off. Charge the battery and allow it to
cool down before restarting the machine. Other-
wise the battery can become damaged.
Preselecting the Orbital Stroke Rate
With the thumbwheel for preselection of the or-
bital stroke rate 5, you can preselect the required
orbital stroke rate, even during operation.
The required stroke rate depends on the materi-
al and the working conditions and can be deter-
mined through practical testing.

Working Advice
Note: Do not cover off the venting slots 7 of
the machine while working, as this reduces
the working life of the machine.
Operating Principle
Due to the oscillating drive the application
tool/accessory swings up to 20000 times per
minute for 2.8°. This allows for precise work
in narrow spaces.
Sawing
Use undamaged faultless saw blades only.
Deformed, blunt saw blades or saw blades
that are otherwise damaged can break.
When sawing light building materials, ob-
serve the statutory provisions and the rec-
ommendations of the material suppliers.
Plunge cuts may only be applied to soft ma-
terials, such as wood, gypsum plaster
boards, etc.!
Before sawing with HCS saw blades in wood,
particle board, building materials, etc., check
these for foreign objects such as nails, screws,
or similar. If required, remove foreign objects or
use BIM saw blades.
Separating
Note: When separating wall tiles take into con-
sideration that the application tools/accesso-
ries wear heavily when used for longer periods
of time.
Sanding
The removal rate and the sanding pattern are
primarily determined by the choice of sanding
sheet, the preset oscillation rate and the ap-
plied pressure.
Only flawless sanding sheets achieve good
sanding capacity and extend the service life of
the machine.
Pay attention to apply uniform sanding pressure;
this increases the working life of the sanding
sheets.
