- Battery and charger not included (tool only (no battery)): Typically sold as bare tool only, meaning you will need a separate Bosch 18V battery and charger
- Material thickness limit: Limited to 3 mm for steel and 2.5 mm for stainless steel, making it unsuitable for thicker metal sheets
- Requires specific accessories (Punching Dies): Requires appropriate punches and dies matched to the hole size and material, which are usually sold separately
- Price: Being a specialized tool featuring hydraulic technology, the price may be higher than general hand tools.
