Bosch Easy Drill 18V-40 1630 RPM Keyless 1.3 kg Black, Green

The Bosch Easy Drill 18V-40 is a compact pistol grip drill designed for general DIY and light professional use. It combines a brushless motor with a keyless chuck and delivers a maximum idle speed of 1630 RPM. The tool accepts a 2 Ah Lithium‑Ion battery and is supplied with two batteries, enabling extended run times. With a drilling capacity in wood up to 30 mm and a lightweight, ergonomic body at 1.3 kg, the drill is intended for tasks that require portability and straightforward handling.

Advantages

The brushless motor improves energy efficiency and reduces maintenance compared with brushed alternatives, while the keyless chuck simplifies bit changes without extra tools. Its low weight and narrow housing (approx. 57 mm width and 180 mm depth) make it easy to maneuver in tight spaces. The built‑in light helps illuminate the work area during low‑light operations. Two included batteries increase continuous working time and reduce interruptions for recharging.

How to use

Insert a charged Lithium‑Ion battery into the drill until it locks into place. Select the required drill bit and secure it in the keyless chuck by hand, ensuring the bit is centered and tightened. Set the speed using the drill's adjustable speed control and engage the trigger to start drilling; use the built‑in light to improve visibility if necessary. For drilling in wood, apply steady pressure and maintain a straight alignment to avoid bit wandering. Release the trigger and let the chuck come to a full stop before removing the bit or setting the tool down.

Recommendations

For extended battery life, store batteries partially charged in a cool, dry place and avoid full discharge whenever possible. When working on prolonged projects, rotate between the two included batteries to minimize downtime. Use appropriate drill bits for the material and consider medium speed settings for general woodwork to balance control and performance.
