Safety Instructions
General Power Tool Safety Warnings
WARNING Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifica-
tions provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions 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 (cordless) power tool.
Work area safety
▶ Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
▶ 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.
▶ Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical safety
▶ 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.
▶ Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
▶ Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
▶ Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, 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.
▶ When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
▶ If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
Personal safety
▶ 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-
tion while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
▶ 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 injuries.
▶ 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 energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
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 injury.
▶ Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
▶ Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair and clothing away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
▶ If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
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 injury within a fraction of a second.
Power tool use and care
▶ 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 designed.
▶ 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.
▶ Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
▶ 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.
- Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for misalignment 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.
▶ Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
▶ Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
▶ 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.
Battery tool use and care
▶ Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.
▶ Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
▶ Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
▶ Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
▶ Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above 130°C may cause explosion.
▶ Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or tool outside the temperature range specified in the instructions. Charging improperly or at temperatures outside the specified range may damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.
Service
▶ 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.
▶ Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should only be performed by the manufacturer or authorized service providers.
Safety Warnings for Impact Wrenches
▶ Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the fastener may contact hidden wiring. Fasteners contacting a "live"
wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
▶ Use suitable detectors to determine if there are hidden supply lines or contact the local utility company for assistance. Contact with electric cables can cause fire and electric shock. Damaging gas lines can lead to explosion. Breaking water pipes causes property damage.
▶ Only use impact-resistant bits and sockets as application tools. Only these application tools are suitable for impact screwdrivers.
▶ Hold the power tool securely. When tightening and loosening screws be prepared for temporarily high torque reactions.
▶ Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with clamping devices or in a vice is held more secure than by hand.
▶ Always wait until the power tool has come to a complete stop before placing it down. The application tool can jam and cause you to lose control of the power tool.
In case of damage and improper use of the battery, vapours may be emitted. The battery can set alight or explode. Ensure the area is well ventilated and seek medical attention should you experience any adverse effects. The vapours may irritate the respiratory system.
▶ Do not modify or open the battery. There is a risk of short-circuiting.
The battery can be damaged by pointed objects such as nails or screwdrivers or by force applied externally. An internal short circuit may occur, causing the battery to burn, smoke, explode or overheat.
▶ Only use the battery in the manufacturer's products. This is the only way in which you can protect the battery against dangerous overload.


Protect the battery against heat, e.g. against continuous intense sunlight, fire, dirt, water and moisture. There is a risk of explosion and short-circuiting.
▶ Application tools can become hot during operation. There is a risk of burns when changing the application tool. Use protective gloves to remove the application tool.

Noise/vibration information
Noise emission values determined according to EN 62841-2-2.
Typically, the A-weighted noise level of the power tool is: Sound pressure level 101 dB(A); sound power level 109 dB(A). Uncertainty K = 3 dB.
Wear hearing protection!
Vibration total values a_h (triax vector sum) and uncertainty K determined according to EN 62841-2-2:
IDR 18V-125 T / IDS 18V-125 T / IDS 18V-200 T:
Tightening screws and nuts of the maximum permitted size: a_h < 12.3 m/s^2 , K = 1.5 m/s^2
IDS 18V-650 T:
Tightening screws and nuts of the maximum permitted size: a_n < 14.5 m/s^2 , K = 2.2 m/s^2
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 compare power tools. They may also be used for a preliminary estimation of vibration and noise emissions.
The stated vibration level and noise emission value represent 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 increase the vibration and noise emissions over the total working 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 operator from the effects of vibration, such as servicing the power tool and accessories, keeping their hands warm, and organising workflows correctly.
Rechargeable battery
Bosch sells some cordless power tools without a rechargeable battery. You can tell whether a rechargeable battery is included with the power tool by looking at the packaging.
Charging the battery
▶ Use only the chargers listed in the technical data. Only these chargers are matched to the lithium-ion battery of your power tool.
12 | English
Note: Lithium-ion rechargeable batteries are supplied partially charged according to international transport regulations. To ensure full rechargeable battery capacity, fully charge the rechargeable battery before using your tool for the first time.
Inserting the Battery
Push the charged battery into the battery holder until it clicks into place.
Removing the Battery
To remove the rechargeable battery, press the battery release button and pull the battery out. Do not use force to do this.
The rechargeable battery has two locking levels to prevent the battery from falling out if the battery release button is pressed unintentionally. The rechargeable battery is held in place by a spring when fitted in the power tool.
Battery charge indicator
Note: Not all battery types have a battery charge indicator. The green LEDs on the battery charge indicator indicate the state of charge of the battery. For safety reasons, it is only possible to check the state of charge when the power tool is not in operation.
Press the button for the battery charge indicator or to show the state of charge. This is also possible when the battery is removed.
If no LED lights up after pressing the button for the battery charge indicator, then the battery is defective and must be replaced.

Recommendations for Optimal Handling of the Battery
Protect the battery against moisture and water.
Only store the battery within a temperature range of -20 to 50 °C. Do not leave the battery in your car in the summer, for example.
Occasionally clean the ventilation slots on the battery using a soft brush that is clean and dry.
A significantly reduced operating time after charging indicates that the battery has deteriorated and must be replaced. Follow the instructions on correct disposal.
Assembly
▶ Before carrying out any work on the power tool (e.g. maintenance, tool change etc.), remove the battery from the power tool. There is risk of injury from unintentionally pressing the on/off switch.
Changing the Tool
Inserting the application tool (see figure A)
IDR 18V-125 T:
Pull the locking sleeve (2) forward, guide the application tool (1) into the tool holder as far as it will go and release the locking sleeve (2) to lock the application tool.
Screwdriver bits (16) can be inserted using a universal bit holder with ball catch (15).
Inserting the application tool (see figure B)
IDS 18V-125 T / IDS 18V-650 T /
IDS 18V-200 T:
When fitting an application tool, make sure that it is held securely in the tool holder. If the application tool is not held securely in the tool holder, it may become loose and consequently uncontrollable.
Slide the application tool (17) onto the square drive of the tool holder (1) as far as it will go on the rubber ring (tool holder) (3).
Note: The rubber ring (tool holder) (3) rotates when the power tool is operated with the tool holder (1). Therefore, keep a small distance between the rubber ring (tool holder) (3) and the gearbox housing of the power tool.
Removing
Pull the locking sleeve (2) forward and remove the application tool.
Belt clip
The belt clip is not included with the product as standard. You can find the complete selection of accessories in the Bosch accessories range.
You can use the belt clip to hang the power tool on a belt, for example. You then have both hands free and the power tool is always within easy reach.
Holder (see figure C)
To attach the holder (19) to the power tool, secure both ends of the holder to the corresponding mount (4).
Operation
▶ Only apply the power tool to the screw/nut when the tool is switched off. Rotating tool inserts can slip off.
Operating Principle
The tool holder (1) (with the application tool) is driven by an electric motor via a gear and impact mechanism.
The working procedure is divided into two phases:
Screwing in and tightening (impact mechanism in action).
The impact mechanism is activated as soon as the screwed connection runs tight and load is therefore put on the motor. The impact mechanism then converts the power of the motor to steady rotary impacts. When loosening screws or nuts, the process is reversed.
Set the rotational direction (see figure D)
The rotational direction switch (5) is used to change the rotational direction of the power tool. However, this is not possible while the on/off switch (11) is being pressed.
Right rotation: To drive in screws and tighten nuts, press the rotational direction switch (5) through to the left stop.
Left Rotation: To loosen and unscrew screws and nuts, press the rotational direction switch (5) through to the right stop.
Switching on/off
To start the power tool, press and hold the on/off switch (11).
The worklight (12) lights up when the on/off switch (11) is lightly or fully pressed, allowing the work area to be illuminated in poor lighting conditions.
To switch off the power tool, release the on/off switch (11).
LED worklight with status indicator

The LED worklight (12) is also used as a status indicator for device protection:
LED
Description
Feedback
Flashing light 3x during downtime
Device protection is active. Device protection has been activated to prevent the battery from consuming a large amount of power and to protect the device against damage.
Adjusting the Speed/Impact Rate
You can adjust the speed/impact rate of the power tool when it is on by pressing in the on/off switch (11) to varying extents.
Applying light pressure to the on/off switch (11) results in a low rotational speed/impact rate. Applying increasing pressure to the switch increases the speed/impact rate.
Practical advice
The torque depends on the impact duration. The maximum achieved torque results from the sum of all individual torques achieved through impact. Maximum torque is achieved after an impact duration of 6–10 seconds. After this duration, the tightening torque increases only minimally. The impact duration is to be determined for each required tightening torque. The tightening torque actually achieved should always be checked with a torque wrench.
Screw applications with hard, spring-loaded or soft joints
When the achieved torques in an impact series are measured during a test and transferred into a diagram, the result is the curve of a torque characteristic. The height of the curve corresponds with the maximum reachable torque, and the steepness indicates the duration in which this is achieved.
A torque gradient depends on the following factors:
– Strength properties of the screws/nuts
- Type of backing (washer, disc spring, seal)
– Strength properties of the material being screwed/bolted together
- Lubrication conditions at the screw/bolt connection
The following application cases result accordingly:
- A hard joint is a metal-to-metal screw application which uses washers. After a relatively short impact duration, the maximum torque is reached (steep characteristic curve). Unnecessary long impact duration only causes damage to the machine.
- A spring-loaded joint is also a metal-to-metal screw application but uses spring washers, disc springs, studs or screws/nuts with conical joints. It is also called a spring-loaded joint when extensions are used.
- A soft joint is a screw application of e.g. metal on wood or a screw application that uses lead washers or fibre washers as backing.
For a spring-loaded joint as well as for a soft joint, the maximum tightening torque is lower than for a hard joint. Also, a clearly longer impact duration is required.
Guide values for maximum screw tightening torques
Figures given in Nm; calculated from the tensional cross-section; utilisation of the yield point: 90% (with friction coefficient _total = 0.12 ). As a control measure, always check the tightening torque with a torque wrench.

Tips
Before screwing larger, longer screws into hard materials, it is advisable to pre-drill a pilot hole with the core diameter of the thread to approx. 2/3 of the screw length.
Note: Ensure that no metal particles enter the power tool.
After working at a low speed for an extended period, you should operate the power tool at the maximum speed for approximately three minutes without load to cool it down.

Torque preselection in 9 stages
The diagram displayed describes the individual settings with the corresponding torque and the relevant machine screw (see figures G-I).
The torque values in the diagram have been measured under standardised measuring conditions and are for reference only. The actual torque may be influenced by various factors. To increase the torque, press the button for torque preselection 1 (+) (25). To decrease the torque, press the button for torque preselection 2 (-) (27). The corresponding torque preselection setting is shown in digits on the torque preselection display (26).
Selecting the torque level
Select the torque level as follows:
- Select the appropriate torque using the reference values in the diagram (see figures G-I).
- Set the correct torque level (1–9). If the power tool has spring lock washers, activate the "soft screwdriving" mode.
If the power tool does not have spring lock washers, deactivate the "soft screwdriving" mode.
- Start the screwing process by pressing the on/off switch (11).
It is recommended to measure the values with a digital torque spanner. - For torque values that are 15 % higher than the required torque, it is recommended to select a lower torque level on the power tool using the torque preselection button 2 (27).
- For torque values that are 15 % below the required torque, it is recommended to select a higher torque level on the power tool using the torque preselection button 1 (25).
- For torque values within the limits of 15% , the selected torque level can be retained.
Note: It is recommended to carry out the measurements described at least three times in order to obtain consistent results and to be able to save these results in the settings.

Switching on "Automatic switch-off" mode (settings 1-9)
"Automatic switch-off" mode is used for pre-tightening or tightening screws to prevent the screws from being tightened too tightly or too loosely. The power tool defaults to "automatic switch-off" mode with its nine settings.
In "automatic switch-off" mode, you can preselect a specific torque (see figures G-I).
You can switch on "Automatic switch-off" mode as follows:
- "Automatic switch-off" mode is preset on the power tool.
- If the display for torque preselection (26) shows the letter "H", press the button for torque preselection 1 (+) (25).

If "Automatic switch-off" mode is switched off, you cannot preselect a torque.
You can switch off "Automatic switch-off" mode as follows:
- If you are at setting 1, press the button for torque preselection 2 (-) (27).
- If you are at setting 9, press the button for torque preselection 1 (+) (25).
The letter "H" appears on the display for torque preselection (26).
Switching "Soft Screwdriving" Mode On and Off
To switch on "soft screwdriving" mode (24), press the buttons for torque preselection 1 and 2 ((25)/(27)) at the same time.
To switch off "soft screwdriving" mode (24), press the buttons for torque preselection 1 and 2 ((25)/(27)) at the same time again.
Screws with/without spring lock washers
To tighten the screws efficiently, adjust the mode of the power tool:
- If screws with spring lock washers are being used, activate the "soft screwdriving" mode.
- If screws without spring lock washers are being used, deactivate the "soft screwdriving" mode.
Maintenance and Service
Maintenance and Cleaning
Clean the air vents on your power tool regularly. The motor's fan will draw the dust inside the housing and excessive accumulation of powdered metal may cause electrical hazards.
Before carrying out any work on the power tool (e.g. maintenance, tool change etc.), remove the battery from the power tool. There is risk of injury from unintentionally pressing the on/off switch.
▶ To ensure safe and efficient operation, always keep the power tool and the ventilation slots clean.
