Assembly
Loading the Magazine (see figure A)
Before any work on the machine itself, pull
the mains plug.
Use only original Bosch accessories. The
precision components of the tacker, such as
magazine, striker and impact channel, are
adapted for Bosch staples, nails or pins. Oth-
er manufacturers use different steel qualities
and measures.
Press on both sides of the magazine slider 3
and pull out the magazine 11.
Insert the staple strip 10 or the nail strip 9.
Hold the tacker at a slight angle when insert-
ing the nail strip 9, so that the nails face
against the sidewall.
Slide in the magazine 11 until the closure on
the magazine slider 3 engages.

Operation
Starting Operation
Observe correct mains voltage! The voltage
of the power source must agree with the
voltage specified on the nameplate of the
machine. Power tools marked with 230 V
can also be operated with 220 V.
Switching On and Off
At first, firmly place the tacker head 7 against
the workpiece until it is pushed in a few millim-
eters. Afterwards, briefly press the trigger 1
and then release again.
The trigger lock, which is connected with the
movable tacker head 7, prevents unintentional
shot actuation when the trigger 1 is inadvertent-
ly pressed.
For rapid working, keep the trigger 1 pressed.
Position the machine and press the tacker head
7 firmly against the workpiece until the shot is
actuated. After the shot, move the tacker to the
next location and press the tacker head 7 firmly
onto the workpiece again.
Hammer-force Preselection
With the thumbwheel for hammer-force prese-
lection 2, 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 practi-
cal testing.
The data in the following table are recommend-
ed values.
When operating with two staples (Duotac func-
tion), the hammer-force preselection must be
set approx. one level higher with the thum-
bwheel 2.
