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 with anoth- er. It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure. The declared vibration emission level represents the main ap- plications 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 OBJ_BUCH-283-014.book Page 16 Thursday, August 17, 2017 3:16 PMEnglish | 17 Bosch Power Tools 1 609 92A 3XU | (17.8.17) when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may sig- nificantly 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 pat- terns. Technical Data Assembly Battery Charging (see figure A) Use only the battery chargers listed on the accessories page. Only these battery chargers are matched to the lith- ium-ion battery of your power tool. Note: The battery supplied is 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 re- ducing its service life. Interrupting the charging procedure does not damage the battery. The lithium-ion battery is protected against deep discharging by the “Electronic Cell Protection (ECP)”. When the battery is empty, the machine is switched off by means of a protective circuit: The inserted tool no longer rotates. Do not continue to press the On/Off switch after the machine has been automatically switched off. The bat- tery can be damaged. Removing the battery The battery 11 is equipped with two locking levels that should prevent the battery from falling out when pushing the battery unlocking button 18 unintentionally. As long as the battery is inserted in the power tool, it is held in position by means of a spring. Rotary Hammer GBH 36 V-LI Plus GBH 36 VF-LI Plus Article number 3 611 J06 0.. 3 611 J07 0..

Battery Charge-control Indication The three green LEDs of the battery charge-control indicator 20 indicate the charge condition of the battery 11. For safety reasons, it is only possible to check the status of the charge condition when the machine is at a standstill. –Push button 21 to indicate the charge condition (also pos- sible when the battery is removed). The battery charge- control indicator automatically goes out after approx. 5seconds. When no LED lights up after pushing button 21, then the bat- tery is defective and must be replaced. During the charging procedure, the three green LEDs light up one after the other and briefly go out. The battery is fully charged when the three green LEDs light up continuously. The three LEDs go out again approx. 5 minutes after the battery has been fully charged. Auxiliary Handle Operate your machine only with the auxiliary handle

Changing the position of the auxiliary handle (see figure B) The auxiliary handle 16 can be set to any position for a secure and low-fatigue working posture. – Turn the bottom part of the auxiliary handle 16 in counter- clockwise direction and swivel the auxiliary handle 16 to the desired position. Then retighten the bottom part of the auxiliary handle 16 by turning in clockwise direction. Pay attention that the clamping band of the auxiliary handle is positioned in the groove on the housing as intended for. Selecting Drill Chucks and Tools For hammer drilling and chiselling, SDS-plus tools are re- quired that are inserted in the SDS-plus drill chuck. For drilling without impact in wood, metal, ceramic and plas- tic as well as for screwdriving, tools without SDS-plus are used (e.g., drill bits with cylindrical shank). For these tools, a keyless chuck or a key type drill chuck are required. Inserting/Removing the Key Type Drill Chuck (GBH 36 VF-LI Plus) To work with tools without SDS-plus (e.g., drills with cylindri- cal shank), a suitable drill chuck must be mounted (key type drill chuck or keyless chuck, accessories). Mounting the Key Type Drill Chuck (see figure C) – Screw the SDS-plus adapter shank 24 into a key type drill chuck 23. Secure the key type drill chuck 23 with the se- curing screw 22. Please observe that the securing screw has a left-hand thread. Inserting the Key Type Drill Chuck (see figure C) – Clean the shank end of the adapter shank and apply a light coat of grease. – Insert the key type drill chuck with the adapter shank into the tool holder with a turning motion until it automatically locks. – Check the locking effect by pulling the key type drill chuck. Removing the Key Type Drill Chuck – Push the locking sleeve 5 toward the rear and pull out the key type drill chuck 23. Removing/Inserting the Quick Change Chuck (GBH 36 VF-LI Plus) The SDS-plus quick change chuck 2 can easily be replaced against the quick change keyless chuck 1 provided. Removing the Quick Change Chuck (see figure D) – Pull the lock ring for the quick change chuck 6 toward the rear, hold it in this position and pull off the SDS-plus quick change chuck 2 or the quick change keyless chuck 1 to- ward the front. – After removing, protect the replacement chuck against contamination. Inserting the Quick Change Chuck (see figure E) Use only model-specific original equipment and pay at- tention to the number of identification grooves 26. On- ly quick-change chucks with two or three identification grooves are permitted. When an unsuitable quick-change chuck is used, the application tool could fall out during op- eration. – Before inserting, clean the quick change chuck and apply a light coat of grease to the shank end. – Grasp the SDS-plus quick change chuck 2 or the quick change keyless chuck 1 completely with your hand. Slide the quick change chuck with a turning motion onto the drill chuck mounting 25 until a distinct latching noise is heard. – The quick change chuck is automatically locked. Check the locking effect by pulling the quick change chuck.

When inserting the tool, take care that the dust protection cap 4 is not damaged. A damaged dust protection cap should be changed im- mediately. We recommend having this carried out by an after-sales service. Changing the Tool (SDS-plus) Inserting SDS-plus Drilling Tools (see figure F) The SDS-plus drill chuck allows for simple and convenient changing of drilling tools without the use of additional tools. – GBH 36 VF-LI Plus: Insert the SDS-plus quick change chuck 2. – Clean and lightly grease the shank end of the tool. – Insert the tool in a twisting manner into the tool holder until it latches itself. – Check the latching by pulling the tool. As a requirement of the system, the SDS-plus drilling tool can move freely. This causes a certain radial run-out at no-load, which has no effect on the accuracy of the drill hole, as the drill bit centres itself upon drilling. Removing SDS-plus Drilling Tools (see figure G) – Push back the locking sleeve 5 and remove the tool. Changing the Tool (without SDS-plus) (GBH 36 VF-LIPlus) Inserting (see figure H) Note: Do not use tools without SDS-plus for hammer drilling or chiselling! Tools without SDS-plus and their drill chucks are damaged by hammer drilling or chiselling. – Insert a key type drill chuck 23 (see “Inserting/Removing the Key Type Drill Chuck”, page 18). – Open the key type drill chuck 23 by turning until the tool can be inserted. Insert the tool. – Insert the chuck key into the corresponding holes of the key type drill chuck 23 and clamp the tool uniformly. – Turn the mode selector switch 13 to the “drilling” position. Removing (see figure I) – Turn the sleeve of the key type drill chuck 23 with the drill chuck key in anticlockwise direction until the drilling tool can be removed. Changing the Tool (without SDS-plus) (GBH 36 VF-LIPlus) Inserting (see figure J) Note: Do not use tools without SDS-plus for hammer drilling or chiselling! Tools without SDS-plus and their drill chucks are damaged by hammer drilling or chiselling. – Insert the quick change keyless chuck 1. – Firmly hold the retaining ring 29 of the quick change chuck. Open the tool holder by turning the front sleeve 28 until the tool can be inserted. Tightly hold the retaining ring 29 and firmly turn the front sleeve 28 in the direction of the arrow until a distinct latching noise can be heard. – Check the tight seating by pulling the tool. Note: If the tool holder was opened to the stop, then the latch- ing noise possibly may be heard while closing the tool holder and the tool holder will not close. In this case, turn the front sleeve 28 once in the opposite di- rection of the arrow. Afterwards, the tool holder can be closed (tightened) again. – Turn the mode selector switch 13 to the “drilling” position. Removing (see figure K) – Firmly hold the retaining ring 29 of the quick change chuck. Open the tool holder by turning the front sleeve 28 in the direction of the arrow until the tool can be removed. Dust Extraction with GDE 16 Plus (Accessory) Dust from materials such as lead-containing coatings, some wood types, minerals and metal can be harmful to one’s health. Touching or breathing-in the dust can cause allergic reactions and/or lead to respiratory infections of the user or bystanders. Certain dust, such as oak or beech dust, is considered car- cinogenic, especially in connection with wood-treatment additives (chromate, wood preservative). Materials con- taining asbestos may only be worked by specialists. – As far as possible, use a dust extraction system suitable for the material. – 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. Dust can easily ignite. A GDE 16 Plus (accessory) is required for dust extraction. The vacuum cleaner must be suitable for the material being worked. When vacuuming dry dust that is especially detrimental to health or carcinogenic, use a special vacuum cleaner. Operation Starting Operation Inserting the battery – Set the rotational direction switch 8 to the centre position to protect the power tool against accidental starting. – Insert the charged battery pack 11 from the rear into the base of the power tool. Press the battery pack completely into the base until the red stripe can no longer be seen and the battery pack is securely locked. Setting the operating mode The operating mode of the power tool is selected with the mode selector switch 13. Note: Change the operating mode only when the machine is switched off! Otherwise, the machine can be damaged. – To change the operating mode, push the release button 12 and turn the mode selector switch 13 to the requested po- sition until it can be heard to latch.

However, this is not possible with the On/Off switch 10 actuated. Right rotation: Move the rotational direction switch 8 all the way to position . Left rotation: Move the rotational direction switch 8 all the way to position . Set the direction of rotation for hammer drilling, drilling and chiselling always to right rotation. Switching On and Off To save energy, only switch the power tool on when using it. –To start the machine, press the On/Off switch 10. When starting the machine for the first time, a starting delay is possible, as the electronic system of the power tool has to configure itself first. –To switch off the machine, release the On/Off switch 10. Setting the Speed/Impact Rate The speed/impact rate of the switched on power tool can be variably adjusted, depending on how far the On/Off switch 10 is pressed. Light pressure on the On/Off switch 10 results in low speed/impact rate. Further pressure on the switch increases the speed/impact rate. Electronic Precision Control (EPC) (see figure L) EPC assists you when working with impact in sensitive mate- rials by ensuring slow start-up and reduced operating speed. – Slide the EPC switch 30 to the desired position. Overload Clutch If the tool insert becomes caught or jammed, the drive to the drill spindle is interrupted. Because of the forces that occur, always hold the power tool firmly with both hands and provide for a secure stance. If the power tool jams, switch the machine off and loos- en the tool insert. When switching the machine on with the drilling tool jammed, high reaction torques can oc- cur. Rapid Shut-off (Kickback Control) The rapid shut-off feature (KickBack Control) provides better control over the power tool. The power tool will switch off if it suddenly and unforeseeably rotates around the drilling axis. –To restart the machine, release the On/Off switch and then actuate again. Rapid shut-off is indicated by flashing of the worklight 14 on the power tool. Rapid shut-off can trigger only when the power tool is running at maximum operating speed and can rotate freely around the drilling axis. Temperature Control Indicator The red LED of the temperature control indicator 19 signals that the battery or the electronics of the power tool (when the battery is inserted) are not within the optimum temperature range. In this case, the power tool will not operate at full ca- pacity. Temperature control of the battery: –The red LED 19 lights up continuously after inserting the battery into the charger: The battery is not within the charging temperature range between 0 °C and 45 °C and cannot be charged. –The red LED 19 flashes when you press the 21 button or the On/Off switch 10 (with battery inserted): The battery is outside of the permitted operating temperature range. – For battery temperatures over 70 °C, the power tool switches off until the battery is in the optimal temperature range again. Temperature control of the power tool electronics: –The red LED 19 lights up continuously when pressing the On/Off switch 10: The temperature of the machine’s elec- tronics is below 5 °C or above 75 °C. – At a temperature above 90 °C , the electronics of the pow- er tool switch off until the temperature is within the allow- able temperature range again.
