General Power Tool Safety Warnings

WARNING

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 mains­operated (corded) power tool or battery-opera ted (cordless)
power tool.

Work area safety

 Keep 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 which may ig nite the 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 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 exten-

sion cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord s uitable

for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.

 If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoid-

able, use a residual current device (RCD) protected
supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

Read all safety warnings and all in­structions. Failure to follow the warnings

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 op-

erating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye



protection.

non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, 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 power source
and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.

rying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising
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 ro-

tating 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 jewel-

lery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be

caught in moving parts.

 If devices are provided for the connection of dust ex-

traction and collection facilities, ensure these are con­nected and properly used. Use of dust collection can re-

duce 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 for which it was designed.

 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.

 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 bind-

ing 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.

Protective equipment such as dust mask,

 Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in ac-

cordance 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 manu-

facturer. 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 bat-

tery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a

risk of injury and fire.

 When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from oth-

er 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 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 per-

son using only identical replacement parts. This will en-

sure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Safety Warnings for Drills and Screw­drivers

GSB 14,4-2-LI/GSB 18-2-LI

 Wear ear protectors when impact drilling. Exposure to

noise can cause hearing loss.

GSR 14,4-2-LI/GSR 18-2-LI/GSB 14,4-2-LI /
GSB 18-2-LI

 Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces when

performing an operation where the cutting accessory
or fastener may contact hidden wiring. Cutting accesso-

ry and fasteners contacting a “live” wire may make ex­posed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give
the operator an electric shock.

 Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the tool. 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.

and electric shock. Damaging a gas line can lead to explo­sion. Penetrating a water l ine causes property damage.

 Switch off the power tool immediately when the tool in-

sert 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.

Bosch Power Tools 1 609 92A 0X1 | (17.9.14)

Contact with electric lines can lead to fire

 Hold the machine with a firm grip. High reaction torque

can briefly occur while driving in and loosening screws.

 Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with clamp-

ing 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. Danger of short-circuiting.

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

 In case of damage and improper use of the battery,

vapours may be emitted. Ventilate the area and seek
medical help in case of complaints. The vapours 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.

Additional Safety and Working
Instructions

 Dusts from materials such as lead-containing coatings,

some wood types, minerals and metal can be harmful to
one’s health and cause allergic reactions, lead to res­piratory infections and/or cancer. Materials containing

asbestos may only be worked by specialists.

– 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.
 Prevent dust accumulation at the workplace. Dusts can

easily ignite.

 The battery is supplied partially charged. To ensure full

battery capacity, completely charge the battery in the
battery charger before using for the first time.

 Read the operating instructions of the battery cha rger.
 Apply the power tool to the screw only when it is

switched off. Rotating tool inserts can slip off.

 Adjust the gear switch only when the machine is at a

complete stop.

 If the gear switch cannot be pushed to the stop, turn

the drill chuck a little.

To save energy, only switch the power tool on when using it.

Noise/Vibration Information

The measured values of the machine are listed in the table on
page 157.

Sound emission values determined according to
EN 60745-2-1.

Vibration total values a
determined according to EN 60745.

The vibration 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 wi th 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: maintain the tool and the
accessories, keep the hands warm, organisation of work pat­terns.
