Turn off the power switch with the collet in 

the Locked or closed position.

1. 

Rotate the bur to position the flats on the chuck  

  nut, so they line-up with the wrench slots in  

  the metal nosecone. Slide the nosecone wrench  

  through the slots all the way.

2. 

Hold the housing with one hand, and tighten  

  the nosecone with the Nosecone Wrench.  

  (Clockwise rotation)

3. Keep the Nosecone Wrench in the slots  

  of the nosecone. 

Then, open the collet by  

  rotating the housing so that the other dot on the  

  metal ring lines up with the 

Unlock

 symbol.  

  Be sure a bur is in the collet to avoid damaging  

  the collet. 

Next,

 Use the rounded triangle  

  hole in the Collet Wrench to un-thread the collet  

  (counterclockwise).  

4. 

Once the collet is loosened, unthread it  

  completely by hand.

by turning counterclockwise until 

it clicks so that the other dot on metal ring lines up 

with the Lock Symbol

The accessory and  

collet will be able to 

spin freely.

5. To install the collet, first, remove the Nose- 

  cone Wrench.

 Make sure one of the dots on  

  the metal ring is lined up with the 

Unlock

  

  symbol, and install a bur in the collet. Screw  

  the collet in by hand (keeping the bur in the  

  collet) until it is finger tight.
