Operation
The nailer will recoil after the fastener is
driven into the work surface. Use sufficient
grip to maintain control and alignment of the
nailer with the work surface during firing and
recoil.
7. Release the Trigger 2 and pull the nailer
away from the work surface.
Maintenance
General Maintenance
Keep your nailer, battery pack and charger in
good working order by adopting a regular main-
tenance program. Inspect your nailer for issues
such as undue noise, misalignment or binding
of moving parts, breakage of parts, or any other
condition that may affect the nailer operation.
This nailer does not contain user-serviceable
parts. The gas reservoir should be recharged
only by an authorized service provider.
It is recommended after 6 months to a year,
depending on use, to return the nailer, battery
pack and charger to a BOSCH service facility for
inspection.
If the nailer does not start or operate at full
power with a fully charged battery pack, clean
the contacts on the battery pack. If the nailer
still does not work properly, return the nailer,
charger and battery pack, to a BOSCH service
facility for repairs.
Service
NO USER SERVICEABLE
PARTS INSIDE. Maintenance
performed by un au thorized personnel may re-
sult in misplacing of internal wires and compo-
nents which could cause serious hazard. We
recom mend that all tool service be performed
by a Bosch Factory Service Center or Authorized
Bosch Service location.
To avoid accidents, always disconnect the Battery Pack from the tool before
cleaning or performing any maintenance.
Do not point the tool towards yourself or anyone nearby. Unexpected triggering
will discharge the fastener causing an injury.
Cleaning
Clean dust and debris from any vents and fast-
ner magazines. Keep nailer clean, dry and free
of oil or grease. Use only mild soap and a damp
cloth to clean housing, since certain cleaning
agents and solvents are harmful to plastics and
other insulated parts. Some of these include
gasoline, turpentine, lacquer thinner, paint thin-
ner, chlorinated cleaning solvents, ammonia
and household detergents containing ammonia.
Never use flammable or combustible solvents
around tools.
Remove collation plastic and clean accumulated
dust from the magazine to allow the fasteners to
feed smoothly.
Repairs
For repairs, return the nailer, battery pack and
charger to the nearest Bosch service center, or
Authorized Bosch Service location.
To fire another fastener the Trigger and
Nosepiece must be released and the firing
sequence, steps 5 -7, repeated.
Note: The nailer will switch off after 30 minutes
of inactivity.
