 Do not point the tool towards yourself or anyone

nearby. Unexpected triggering will discharge the fas-

tener causing an injury.

 Do not actuate the tool unless the tool is placed firm-

ly against the workpiece. If the tool is not in contact

with the workpiece, the fastener may be deflected away

from your target.

 Disconnect the tool from the power source when the

fastener jams in the tool. While removing a jammed

fastener, the tacker may be accidentally activated if it is

plugged in.

 Use caution while removing a jammed fastener. The

mechanism may be under compression and the fasten-

er may be forcefully discharged while attempting to free

a jammed condition.

 Do not use this tacker for fastening electrical cables.

It is not designed for electric cable installation and may

damage the insulation of electric cables thereby causing

electric shock or fire hazards.

 Use appropriate detectors to determine if utility

lines are hidden in the work area or call the local util-

ity company for assistance. Contact with electric lines

can lead to fire and electric shock. Damaging a gas line

can lead to explosion. Penetrating a water line causes

property damage.

 Observe the conditions of the job site. It is possible

that fasteners can burst through thin workpieces or be

deflected when working in corners or against edges,

and harm persons.

 When working, hold the power tool in such a manner

that your head and body cannot be injured in case of

sudden kickback due to a malfunction of the energy

supply or from hard objects/locations in the work-

piece.

 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.

 Use only original Bosch batteries with the voltage

listed on the nameplate of your power tool. When us-

ing other batteries, e.g. imitations, reconditioned bat-

teries or other brands, there is danger of injury as well

as property damage through exploding batteries.

Product Description and Specifica-

tions

Read all safety warnings and all instruc-

tions. Failure to follow the warnings and in-

structions may result in electric shock, fire

and/or serious injury.

Intended Use

The power tool is intended for connecting work in roofing,

encasing, battening, manufacturing wall and ceiling ele-

ments, wood facades, pallets, wood fences, noise-reduc-

tion walls and boxes.

Only the fasteners (nails, staples, etc.) specified in table

“Technical Data” may be used.

Technical Data

Noise/Vibration Information

Measured sound values determined according to

EN 60745.

Typically the A-weighted noise levels of the product are:

Sound pressure level 91 dB(A); Sound power level

102 dB(A). Uncertainty K =3 dB.

Wear hearing protection!

Vibration total values a

and uncertainty K determined ac-

cording to EN 60745:a

<2.5m/s

, K=1.5 m/s

The vibration emission 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

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 dif-

ferent applications, with different accessories or 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 hands warm, organise work pat-

terns.

Declaration of Conformity

We declare under our sole responsibility that the product

described under “Technical Data” is in conformity with the

following standards or standardization documents:

EN 60745 according to the provisions of the directives

2011/65/EU, 2004/108/EC, 2006/42/EC.

Assembly

Battery Charging

 Use only the battery chargers listed on the graphics

page. Only these battery chargers are matched to the

lithium ion battery used in your machine.

Note: The battery is supplied partially charged. To ensure

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 proce-

dure does not damage the battery.

The “Electronic Cell Protection (ECP)” protects the lithium

ion battery against deep discharging. When the battery is

discharged, the power tool is switched off by a protective

circuit: Fasteners can no longer be shot.

After the automatic shut-off of the

power tool, do not continue to press

the trigger. The battery could become damaged.

The battery is equipped with a NTC temperature control

which allows charging only within a temperature range of

between 0 °C and 45 °C. A long battery service life is

achieved in this manner.

Observe the notes for disposal.

Removing the battery (see figure A)

The battery 8 has two locking levels, which are supposed

to prevent the battery from falling out in case of vibrations

from intensive use.

– Press battery unlocking button 7 (1.) and at the same

time push the battery toward the front.

– Press the battery unlocking button 7 (2.) again and pull

the battery out completely, toward the rear.

Loading the Magazine (see figures B1 –B4)

Block the actuation system and remove

the battery before making any adjust-

ments, changing accessories, or placing

the power tool aside. This safety measure

prevents accidental starting of the power

tool.

 Use only original Bosch accessories (see “Technical

Data”). The precision parts of the power tool, such as

the magazine, the outlet and the shot duct, are matched

to Bosch staples, nails and brads. Other manufacturers

use other steel qualities and sizes.

Using fasteners not permitted can damage the power

tool and cause injuries.

While loading the magazine, hold the power tool in such a

manner that the outlet 15 is not pointed at your own body

or at other persons.

– Clean the magazine slider 13 as required and make sure

that the magazine 12 is not dirty/soiled.

– Insert a fitting nail strip 16 in the T-slot at the end of the

magazine 12.

– Push the nail strip in the magazine toward the front until

the last nail is positioned in front of the magazine spring

17.

Note: A lock function of the magazine slider prevents the

power tool from being started with an empty magazine.

The discharge lock-off cannot be pressed in and blank fir-

ing is thus prevented.

– Press the pretensioned nail pusher 14 against the mag-

azine slider 13 and at the same time, pull the magazine

slider completely to the end of the magazine 12.

Note: The magazine slider must slide back with only low

force (finger-pressure). A tight-running magazine slider

causes the nails to be driven in at an incorrect angle.
