#5 Insert an Allen key or a screwdriver in the spacer hole to block
the rotation of the spindle.
#6 Fit an 8 mm spanner on the chuck nut.
#7 Loosen the nut with one turn of the spanner, to free the bit.
#8 Use pliers to remove the bit from the chuck.
#9 Fit a new bit in the chuck. We advise you to apply a touch of
grease to the end of the bit to ease its insertion into the chuck.
Caution! Ensure that the bit is pushed home inside the chuck.
#10 Tighten the chuck nut lightly with the 8 mm spanner to
immobilize the mill bit.
#11 When the bit is tightened, remove the Allen key or the
screwdriver.
