1 609 929 F02 • (04.10) T Read all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. In addition, the general safety notes in the enclosed booklet must be observed. Wear hearing protection. The noise can cause loss of hearing. Do not use the machine with a damaged cable. If the cable is damaged while working, do not touch the damaged cable but pull the mains plug. A damaged cable increases the risk of an electrical shock. For machines used outdoors, connect to the mains using a fault current (FI) protection switch. Use suitable detectors to find hidden utility lines or call the local utility company for assistance. Contact with electric lines can lead to fire or electrical shock. Damaging a gas line can result in an explosion. Penetrating a water pipe will cause property damage or an electrical shock. Always use the auxiliary handle provided with the machine. The loss of control over the machine can result in injuries. Secure the work piece. A work piece clamped with clamping devices or in a vice is held more securely than by hand. Do not work with materials containing asbestos. Asbestos is considered carcinogenic. Hold the machine firmly with both hands while working and provide for secure footing. The machine is more securely guided with both hands. Wait until the machine has come to a standstill before placing it down. The insertion tool can become caught and lead to loss of control over the machine. English–2 Changing the Drill Chuck (PBH 200 FRE) The SDS-plus exchangeable drill chuck can easily be replaced on the rotary hammer with the ring gear exchangeable drill chuck provided. Hammer drilling is possible only with SDS-plus tools that are inserted in the SDS-plus exchangeable drill chuck. Drilling and screwdriving are also possible with tools without SDS-plus (e.g., round shaft drills, screwdriver bits) that are clamped in the ring gear exchangeable drill chuck. Removing the Exchangeable Drill Chuck (Fig. A ) Danger of injury! Before removing the exchangeable drill chuck, always remove the tool or bit. Grasp the locking ring 6 of the SDS-plus exchangeable drill chuck and pull forcefully in the direction of the arrow. The exchangeable drill chuck comes off. Attaching the Exchangeable Drill Chuck (Fig. B ) Take hold of the ring gear exchangeable drill chuck with the whole hand. Place it with a twisting motion on the chuck holder until it can clearly be heard to latch. The exchangeable drill chuck locks itself. Check locking by pulling on the exchangeable drill chuck. Make exchanges in the reverse order in a corresponding manner. Maintenance of the Exchangeable Drill Chucks Keep the connecting parts free of dust. Lubrication is not necessary. Tool Changing (Fig. C–I) PBH 200 FRE Tool Insertion (Fig. H ) Turn the collar of the ring gear exchangeable drill chuck until the tool holder is opened wide enough. Insert the tool and clamp with the drill chuck key 21 uniformly in all three holes. For screwdriver bits, insert a commercially available bit holder. Insert the screwdriver bits into the bit holder. Use only screwdriver bits that fit the screw heads. Screwdriver bits may also be inserted without a bit holder. Tool Removal (Fig. I ) To remove a tool from the ring gear exchangeable drill chuck, turn the collar in the direction of the arrow until the tool can be removed. System Accessories Refer to the Bosch Catalogue for insertion tools. A list of accessories can be found at the end of these instructions. Putting into Operation Take care that the dust protection cap 4 is not damaged when changing tools. SDS-plus Tools The SDS-plus tool is designed to be freely movable. This causes eccentricity when the machine is off-load. However, the drill automatically centres itself during operation. This does not affect drilling precision. Inserting (Fig. C ) Clean and lightly oil the tool before inserting. Insert the dust-free tool into the tool holder 3 with twisting until it latches. The tool locks itself. Check the locking by pulling on the tool. Removing (Fig. D ) Pull the locking sleeve 5 to the rear (a) and hold while removing the tool (b). 1 609 929 F02 • (04.10) T Tools without SDS-plus Do not use tools without SDS-plus for hammer drilling or chiselling!

PBH 160 RE/180 RE/1800 RE/200 RE

To work with tools without SDS-plus (e.g., drills with cylindrical shafts), a drill chuck 17 with a SDS-plus chuck shaft 18 (optional accessory) must be inserted into the tool holder (Fig. E ). Insert the dust-free, assembled chuck into the tool holder 3 with twisting until it latches (Fig. F ). The chuck locks itself. Check the locking by pulling on the chuck. Srewdriver Bits (Fig. G ) For screwdriver bits, use the SDS-plus adapter 20 (optional accessory). Ensure that the mains voltage is correct! The voltage of the power source must agree with the value given on the nameplate of the machine. Machines designated for 230 V can also be operated with 220 V. Switching On/Off To switch on the machine, press the on/off switch 8. Lock the depressed on/off switch 8 by pressing the lock-on button 7. To switch off the machine, release the on/off switch 8 or press and then release it. English–3 Working Instructions (Fig. K–N)

Place the machine on the nut/screw only when it is switched off. Auxiliary Handle (Fig. K ) For safety reasons, the machine should be used only with the auxiliary handle 14. By rotating the auxiliary handle 14 to a comfortable position, a fatigue-free and therefore safe working position can be achieved. Loosen the winged screw 13 on the auxiliary handle

14. Swing the grip to a new position. Retighten the

Overload Clutch If the insertion tool becomes caught or jammed, the drive to the drill spindle is interrupted. As a result of the forces that occur, always hold the machine firmly with both hands and provide for a sure footing. Depth Stop (Fig. L ) With the depth stop 15, the drilling depth t can be set. Press the button 12 and pull out the depth stop to the tip of the drill. Read the value from the scale 22, subtract the desired drilling depth t and set the resulting value on the depth stop scale. Dust Vacuuming/Vacuuming Attachment Take protective measures when dust is produced while working that is detrimental to health, combustible or explosive. For example: Some dusts are considered to be carcinogenic. Use dust/chip extraction and wear a protective mask. Keep your workplace clean. Material mixtures are especially dangerous. Light metal dust can burn or explode. The machine can be connected directly to the socket of a Bosch all-purpose vacuum cleaner with remote starting. The vacuum cleaner starts automatically when the machine is switched on. Mount the vacuuming attachment (optional accessory) and connect the vacuum cleaner. The vacuuming attachment is spring loaded up to the preselected drilling depth. In this manner, the vacuuming attachment head is always held close to the surface. Setting the Speed (Fig. M ) By increasing or decreasing the pressure on the on/off switch 8, the speed can be continuously controlled during operation. Advantages: – Slow starting of holes, e.g., on smooth surfaces or tiles – No sliding off of the drill when starting the hole – No splintering of the hole. 1 609 929 F02 • (04.10) T Speed Pre-Selection (Fig. N ) With the speed regulator 9, the required highest speed can be pre-set. As a result of this limitation, the on/off switch can be pressed only to the pre-set highest speed. The speed must be selected according to the operating mode, the material to be worked and the diameter of the drill. See Operating Modes for recommended values. Operating Modes (Fig. O–S) The operation of the gearbox for each application is set with the mode selection switch 11: Drilling Hammer Drilling The operating mode selector switch may be actuated only at a standstill. Do not use tools without SDS-plus for hammer drilling or chiselling! The following table shows how the operating mode selector switch 11, the right/left rotation switch 10 as well as the speed regulator 9 are to be set for the various operating modes (See fold-out page for figures): Operating Mode Hammer drilling in concrete or stone Fig. O Fig. O Drilling in steel or wood Fig. P Fig. P Screw driving Right rotation Left rotation Fig. R Fig. S Fig. R Fig. S Chiselling only with MV 200 Fig. O (optional accessory)
