Loading the Magazine
(see figure B–C)
Before any work on the power tool, remove the
battery.
B Use only original Bosch accessories. The preci-
sion components of the tacker, such as magazine,
striker and impact channel, are adapted for Bosch
staples, nails or pins. Other manufacturers use dif-
ferent steel qualities and measures.
Press the latching lever 11 and keep it depressed.
Pull out the magazine 10.
You can only take out the magazine 10 when the
protective cap 12 is mounted onto the tacker head
5, the open side oriented to the back, as shown in
the picture.
Insert the staple strip 9 or the nail strip 8. Hold the
tacker slightly inclined while inserting the nail strip
8 so that nails rest against the side wall.
Slide the magazine 10 against the tacker head 5 to
the stop and press the latching lever 11 until it
engages.
Operation

Starting Operation

Inserting the Battery
Insert the charged battery 3 into the handle until it can
be felt to engage and faces flush against the handle.
Switching On and Off
At first, firmly place the tacker head 5 against the work-
piece until it is pushed in a few millimeters. After-
wards, briefly press the trigger 2 and then release
again.
The trigger lock, which is connected with the movable
tacker head 5, prevents unintentional shot actuation
when the trigger 2 is inadvertently pressed.
Hammer-force Preselection
With the thumbwheel for hammer-force preselection 1,
it is possible to preselect the required hammer force in
steps.
The required hammer force depends on the length of
the staples or nails, and on the strength of the material.
The optimal hammer-force setting is best determined
through practical testing.

Operating Instructions
This machine is not suitable for working with
19 mm staples. Therefore, do not use the
machine to fasten ceiling panelling with profiled
wood or grooves.
Avoid blank shots in order to reduce the wear of the
impact striker. After finishing your work, set the hammer
force with the thumbwheel for hammer-force preselec-
tion 1 to a low value, in order to relieve the tension
spring.
Removable Protective Cap for Tacker Head
(see figure C)
When working sensitive surfaces, e. g., foils, attach the
removable protective cap 12 onto the tacker head 5.
