By sliding this switch to the back position, the rotation is to the left or anti-clockwise direction. For a right or clockwise rotation, you need to slide the top mounted power switch to the forward position.
Once powered up, which I hardly considered a fast operation as it took around 3 hours when carried out for the first time, you can turn the screwdriver on and set its rotation direction with a single motion. To alleviate any worried regarding possible deep discharging, the screwdriver’s battery features a protection circuit which switches off the device when the battery is discharged. Also you can interrupt the charging process for any reason without damaging the battery.
While on the subject of the unit’s Lithium-ion battery, Bosch has stated that you can charge the battery at any time without incurring any adverse reduction in the battery’s service life. This same light will glow red to indicate when the battery level is below 30% thus indicating that a charging process is advised to avoid running out of power. During the charging process, a light, on the top of the screwdriver, will glow green and then turn itself off once the charging process has been completed. This cable connects to the IXO device via a USB port located on the base of the screwdriver’s pistol style grip handle. When charging is required, this will be carried out via the supplied cable and 3-pin power plug combination.īosch recommends that you should use the supplied cable for this purpose as it has been specifically designed for use with the Lithium-ion battery incorporated into the screwdriver.
Power for the device comes from a built-in Lithium-ion 3.6V battery with a capacity of 1.5Ah. Sitting comfortable in the hand when in use, with a reassuring weight of 0.3 kg, the screwdriver unit features a pistol-style grip and has an outer casing that is made up of green, black, matte silver and orange sections.
