Adjusting the Drilling Depth on the Dust 
Extraction Attachment (see figure H)
The required drilling depth X can also be adjust-
ed when the dust extraction attachment is 
mounted.
Insert the SDS-plus drilling tool to the stop into 
the SDS-plus tool holder 1. Otherwise, the mova-
bility of the SDS-plus drilling tool can lead to in-
correct adjustment of the drilling depth.
Loosen the wing bolt 19 on the dust extraction 
attachment.
Without switching the power tool on, apply it 
firmly to the drilling location. The SDS-plus drill-
ing tool must face against the surface.
Position the the guide pipe 20 of the dust extrac-
tion attachment in its holding fixture in such a 
manner that the head of the dust extraction at-
tachment faces against the surface to be drilled. 
Do not slide the guide pipe 20 further over the tel-
escopic pipe 18 of the dust extraction attachment 
than required, so that as much as possible of the 
scale 18 on the telescopic pipe remains visible.
Retighten the wing bolt 19 again. Loosen the 
clamping screw 16 on the depth stop of the dust 
extraction attachment.
Move the depth stop 17 on the telescopic pipe 18 
in such a manner that the clearance X shown in 
the figure corresponds with the required drilling 
depth.
Tighten the clamping screw 16 in this position.
Operation
Starting Operation
f
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.
Setting the Operating Mode
With the selector switch for drilling/hammer 
drilling 7, the operating mode of the machine is 
selected.
Note: Change the operating mode only when the 
machine is switched off! Otherwise, the machine 
can be damaged.
To change the operating mode, turn the selector 
switch for “drilling/hammer drilling” 7 to the 
requested position.
Reversing the Rotational Direction 
(GBH 2-18 RE) (see figure I)
The rotational direction switch 6 is used to re-
verse the rotational direction of the machine. 
However, this is not possible with the On/Off 
switch 5 actuated.
Right rotation: Push the rotational direction 
switch 6 rightward to the stop.
Left rotation: Push the rotational direction 
switch 6 leftward to the stop.
For hammer drilling and drilling, always set the 
direction of rotation to right rotation.
Switching On and Off
To start the machine, press the On/Off switch 5.
To lock the On/Off switch, keep it pressed and 
additionally push the lock-on button 4.
To switch off the machine, release the On/Off 
switch 5. When the On/Off switch 5 is locked, 
press it first and then release it.
Setting the Speed/Impact Rate
The speed/impact rate of the switched on power 
tool can be variably adjusted, depending on how 
far the On/Off switch 5 is pressed.
Light pressure on the On/Off switch 5 results in 
low speed/impact rate. Further pressure on the 
switch increases the speed/impact rate.
Position for hammer drilling in 
concrete or stone
Position for drilling without impact 
in wood, metal, ceramic and plastic 
as well as for screwdriving
