FAQs

What is the maximum drilling capacity in wood and masonry?

The product description does not specify exact maximum capacities for wood and masonry. However, it is designed for general-purpose drilling in these materials.

How long does the 2.0Ah battery typically last?

Battery life varies significantly based on the application (drilling, screwdriving, impact drilling) and the material being worked on. For light to moderate use, the 2.0Ah battery should provide a reasonable runtime.

Can I use this for heavy-duty construction tasks?

The EasyImpact 18V-40 is best suited for DIY and home improvement tasks. For continuous heavy-duty construction, a more specialized professional-grade tool might be necessary.

What does '20 torque levels' mean?

This refers to the number of different clutch settings available for screwdriving. Each level offers a specific amount of rotational force, allowing you to precisely control how deep or tight a screw is driven, preventing damage to the material or the screw head.

How do I switch between drilling and impact drilling modes?

The tool features selector rings for mode and torque. Refer to the tool's manual for the exact location and operation of these selectors, as specific models may vary slightly.

Is this tool compatible with batteries from other brands?

Yes, it is part of the Bosch POWER FOR ALL ALLIANCE, meaning it is compatible with 18V batteries from other participating brands in the alliance.

What is included in the package?

This package includes the Bosch EasyImpact 18V-40 cordless combi drill, one 18V 2.0Ah battery, and one charger.

Troubleshooting

Tool does not turn on

Ensure the battery is fully charged and properly inserted. Check if the direction switch is in the neutral position.

Poor screwdriving performance

Check if the correct torque setting is selected for the material. Ensure the screwdriver bit is fully engaged in the screw head.

Drill bit slips in the chuck

Ensure the chuck is properly tightened around the drill bit. Check if the bit shank is clean and undamaged.

Battery not charging

Verify the charger is plugged in and the battery is correctly seated on the charger contacts. Try a different power outlet.
