English Safety Instructions General Power Tool Safety Warnings WARNING Read all safety warnings, instruc- tions, illustrations and specifica- tions provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all in- structions listed below 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 mains- operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cord- less) power tool. Work area safety u Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents. u 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 ignite the dust or fumes. u Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control. Electrical safety u 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. u Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded sur- faces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerat- ors. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded. u Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of elec- tric shock. u Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carry- ing, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock. u When operating a power tool outdoors, use an exten- sion cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suit- able for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock. u If operating a power tool in a damp location is un- avoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protec- ted supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock. Personal safety u 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 inatten- 1 609 92A 9ST | (22.05.2024) Bosch Power ToolsEnglish | 9 tion while operating power tools may result in serious per- sonal injury. u Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal in- juries. u 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. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or en- ergising power tools that have the switch on invites acci- dents. u Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal in- jury. u Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations. u Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jew- ellery. Keep your hair and clothing away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts. u If devices are provided for the connection of dust ex- traction and collection facilities, ensure these are con- nected and properly used. Use of dust collection can re- duce dust-related hazards. u Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become complacent and ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can cause severe in- jury within a fraction of a second. Power tool use and care u 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 de- signed. u 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. u Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or re- move the battery pack, if detachable, from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing ac- cessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally. u 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. u Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for mis- alignment or binding 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. u Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly main- tained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control. u Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into ac- count the working conditions and the work to be per- formed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation. u Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected situations. Service u Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained. Safety instructions for nibblers u Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting ac- cessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory contacting a "live" wire may make ex- posed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock. u This power tool is not suitable for bench-mounted use. It must not be clamped into a vice or fastened to a work- bench, for example. u Wear protective gloves during work and pay particu- lar attention to the cord. Sharp burrs develop on the cut sheets; these can cause injury or damage the cord. Products sold in GB only: Your product is fitted with an BS 1363/A approved electric plug with internal fuse (ASTA approved to BS 1362). If the plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place by an au- thorised customer service agent. The replacement plug should have the same fuse rating as the original plug. The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible shock hazard and should never be inserted into a mains socket elsewhere. Product Description and Specifications Read all the safety and general instructions. Failure to observe the safety and general in- structions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Please observe the illustrations at the beginning of this oper- ating manual. Intended Use The power tool is intended for cutting sheet metal without deforming the material and is suitable for straight cuts, cut- outs and narrow curves.

Typically, the A-weighted noise levels of the power tool are: Sound pressure level 93dB(A); sound power level 101dB(A). Uncertainty K=3dB. Wear hearing protection! Vibration total values a

(triax vector sum) and uncertainty K determined according to EN62841‑2‑8:

The vibration level and noise emission value given in these instructions have been measured in accordance with a standardised measuring procedure and may be used to com- pare power tools. They may also be used for a preliminary estimation of vibration and noise emissions. The stated vibration level and noise emission value repres- ent the main applications of the power tool. However, if the power tool is used for other applications, with different ac- cessories or is poorly maintained, the vibration level and noise emission value may differ. This may significantly in- crease the vibration and noise emissions over the total work- ing period. To estimate vibration and noise emissions accurately, the times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but not actually being used should also be taken into account. This may significantly reduce vibration and noise emissions over the total working period. Implement additional safety measures to protect the oper- ator from the effects of vibration, such as servicing the power tool and accessories, keeping their hands warm, and organising workflows correctly. Operation u Products that are only sold in AUS and NZ: Use a resid- ual current device (RCD) with a nominal residual current of 30 mA or less. Starting Operation u Pay attention to the mains voltage. The voltage of the power source must match the voltage specified on the rating plate of the power tool. Switching On and Off To switch on the power tool, slide the on/off switch(1) for- wards so that I appears on the switch. To lock the on/off switch(1), push down on the front of the switch as well. To switch off the power tool, release the on/off switch(1). When the on/off switch is locked, press down on the back of the switch and then release it. Changing the cutting direction To change the cutting direction, the die holder(5) can be turned to three positions, each offset by 90°. Cutting to- wards the rear (towards the housing of the machine) is not possible. To turn the die holder(5), loosen the die holder screw(2) until the die holder can be turned. Turn it 90° to the right or the left in relation to the longitudinal axle of the power tool. Make sure that the screw(2) engages in the drill hole of the die holder(5). Tighten the screw. Working Advice u Pull the plug out of the socket before carrying out any work on the power tool. u This power tool is not suitable for bench-mounted use. It must not be clamped into a vice or fastened to a work- bench, for example. u Wear protective gloves during work and pay particu- lar attention to the cord. Sharp burrs develop on the cut sheets; these can cause injury or damage the cord. u Exercise caution when handling the cutting chips. The chips have sharp tips that can cause injuries. 1 609 92A 9ST | (22.05.2024) Bosch Power ToolsEnglish | 11 Apply the power tool to the workpiece only when switched on. Always hold the power tool vertical to the surface of the steel sheet and do not tilt it. The cut is made as the punch moves downwards. Guide the power tool evenly, pushing it gently in the cutting direction. Applying too much pressure to the power tool will signific- antly reduce the service life of application tools and can damage the power tool. The power tool operates more quietly when it is raised slightly during cutting. If the punch jams during cutting, switch the power tool off, lubricate the punch and release the sheet. Do not use force to do this, as this will damage the punch and the die. Maximum steel sheet cutting capacity The maximum steel sheet cutting capacity d max depends on the strength properties of the material to be cut. The power tool allows for cutting of metal sheet to the follow- ing thicknesses: Material max. strength (N/mm
