Replacing the Drill Chuck
For machines without spindle lock, the drill
chuck must be replaced through an authorized
after-sales service agent for Bosch power tools.
The drill chuck must be tightened with a
tightening torque of approx. 31–35 Nm.
Dust/Chip Extraction
f
Dusts from materials such as lead-containing
coatings, some wood types, minerals and
metal can be harmful to one’s health. Touch-
ing or breathing-in the dusts can cause aller-
gic reactions and/or lead to respiratory infec-
tions of the user or bystanders.
Certain dusts, such as oak or beech dust, are
considered as carcinogenic, especially in
connection with wood-treatment additives
(chromate, wood preservative). Materials
containing asbestos may only be worked by
specialists.
– Provide for good ventilation of the work-
ing place.
– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-
class respirator.
Observe the relevant regulations in your
country for the materials to be worked.
Operation
Starting Operation
f
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) (see figure C)
The rotational direction switch
7
is used to re-
verse the rotational direction of the machine.
However, this is not possible with the On/Off
switch
6
actuated.
Right Rotation:
For drilling and driving in
screws, push the rotational direction switch
7
left to the stop.
Left Rotation:
For loosening and unscrewing
screws and nuts, press the rotational direction
switch
7
through to the right stop.
Switching On and Off
To
start
the machine, press the On/Off switch
6
and keep it pressed.
To lock the
pressed
On/Off switch
6
, press the
lock-on button
5
.
To
switch off
the machine, release the On/Off
switch
6
or when it is locked with the lock-on
button
5
, briefly press the On/Off switch
6
and
then release it.
Adjusting the Speed (GBM 10 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.
Working Advice
f
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 sharp-
ened 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 ac-
cessories).
We recommend the use of a drill stand (see ac-
cessories) for work where greater precision is
particularly required.
The machine vice, which is available as an acces-
sory, enables secure clamping of workpieces.
This prevents the workpiece from turning and
any accidents this would cause.
Belt Clip
With the belt clip
4
, the machine can be hung
onto a belt. The user has both hands free and
the machine is always at hand.
