Recommendations for Optimal Handling of the
Battery
Protect the battery against moisture and water.
Only store the battery within a temperature range of −20 to
50 °C. Do not leave the battery in your car in the summer, for
example.
Occasionally clean the ventilation slots on the battery using a
soft brush that is clean and dry.
A significantly reduced operating time after charging indic-
ates that the battery has deteriorated and must be replaced.
Follow the instructions on correct disposal.
Assembly
u
Remove the battery from the power tool before carry-
ing out work on the power tool (e.g. maintenance,
changing tool, etc.). The battery should also be re-
moved for transport and storage.
There is risk of injury
from unintentionally pressing the on/off switch.
Auxiliary handle
u
Do not operate your power tool without the auxiliary
handle
(20)
.
u
Make sure that the auxiliary handle is always
tightened.
Otherwise you could lose control of the power
tool when working.
Swivelling the auxiliary handle (see figure A)
You can swivel the auxiliary handle
(20)
to any angle for a
safe work posture that minimises fatigue.
– Turn the lower gripping end of the auxiliary handle
(20)
anticlockwise and swivel the auxiliary handle
(20)
into
the required position. Then turn the lower gripping end of
the auxiliary handle
(20)

Make sure that the retaining strap of the auxiliary handle
slots into the corresponding groove of the housing.
Selecting drill chucks and tools
Hammer drilling and chiselling require SDS-plus application
tools that are inserted into the SDS-plus drill chuck.
For drilling without impact in wood, metal, ceramic and
plastic as well as for screwdriving, tools without SDS‑plus
are used (e.g. cylindrical shank drill bits). For these tools, a
keyless chuck or a keyed chuck are required.
Changing the drill chuck
Inserting/removing the keyed chuck
GBH 36 V-LI Plus
You must use a suitable drill chuck (keyed or keyless chuck,
accessories) to work with tools that do not have SDS-plus
(e.g. cylindrical shank drill bits).
Fitting the keyed chuck (see figure B)
– Screw the SDS-plus shank
(24)
into a keyed chuck
(23)
.
Secure the keyed chuck
(23)
using the securing screw
(22)
.
Note that the securing screw has a left-hand
thread.
Inserting the keyed chuck (see figure B)
– Clean and lightly grease the insertion end of the shank.
– Insert the keyed chuck with the adapter shank into the
tool holder with a turning motion until it automatically
locks.
– Check that it is locked by pulling the keyed chuck.
Removing the keyed chuck
– Push the locking sleeve
(5)
back and remove the keyed
chuck
