Product Information

Full details

The Bosch GBH 18V-26 Professional is designed for tradespeople needing a versatile and reliable cordless rotary hammer for daily use in concrete, masonry, wood, and metal. Its key benefit lies in its balanced performance, ergonomic design for reduced fatigue, and enhanced safety features like KickBack Control. A potential caveat is the need for compatible Bosch Professional 18V batteries, which are sold separately. Key features include its SDS-plus tool holder, variable speed control, and robust impact energy.

What is the weight of the tool without a battery?

Troubleshooting

Tool does not start

Ensure the battery is fully charged and correctly inserted. Check if the trigger switch is engaged properly. Verify that KickBack Control is not activated due to a false positive.

Reduced drilling or chiselling power

Check if the battery is low on charge. Ensure the drill bit is sharp and not damaged. Clean the SDS-plus bit holder and the bit itself. Verify the selected function mode (drilling vs. hammer drilling).

Battery not charging

Ensure the charger is properly connected to a power source and the battery is seated correctly in the charger. Clean the battery and charger contacts. Try a different compatible battery or charger if available.

Excessive vibration or noise

This can be normal during heavy use, but if it's sudden or extreme, stop using the tool. Check the SDS-plus bit for damage or improper seating. Ensure the tool's internal components are not obstructed by debris.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight and ergonomic design reduces user fatigue.
  • KickBack Control and EPC enhance safety and precision.
  • Compatible with the Bosch Professional 18V system, including ProCORE18V batteries.
  • Versatile for drilling and chiselling in various materials.
  • Cordless freedom for use in any location.

Cons

  • Batteries and charger are sold separately.
  • Impact energy of 1.9 Joules may be insufficient for very heavy-duty, prolonged chiselling tasks.
  • Requires specific SDS-plus bits, not standard drill bits.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure a compatible Bosch Professional 18V battery is fully charged and inserted correctly into the tool's battery compartment until it clicks into place. Select the appropriate SDS-plus bit for your task and insert it into the SDS-plus tool holder, ensuring it locks securely. Choose the desired function (drilling, hammer drilling, or chiselling) using the mode selector.

Compatibility: This tool is part of the Bosch Professional 18V System. It is compatible with all Bosch Professional 18V batteries and chargers. It also supports the AMPShare multi-brand battery alliance. Use only SDS-plus bits designed for rotary hammers.

Care: Keep the tool clean and free of dust and debris, especially around ventilation slots. Use a dry or slightly damp cloth for cleaning; avoid solvents. Regularly check the SDS-plus tool holder for wear or damage. Store the tool in its L-Boxx when not in use to protect it from dust and moisture.
