Model G0750G (Mfd. Since 5/15)
This 3-jaw, scroll-type chuck has an internal scroll-
gear that moves all jaws in unison when adjusted
with the chuck key. This chuck holds cylindrical
parts on-center with the axis of spindle rotation
and can be rotated at high speeds if the workpiece
is properly clamped and balanced.
Never mix jaw types or positions to
accommodate an odd-shaped workpiece. The
chuck will spin out of balance and may throw the
workpiece! Instead, use an independent jaw chuck
or a faceplate.

Chuck Jaw Reversal
This chuck has 2-piece jaws that consist of
a top jaw and a master jaw. The top jaw can
be removed, rotated 180°, and re-installed in
the reverse position for additional work-holding
options. When reversing the top jaws, always
keep them matched with their original master jaw
to ensure the best fit.
To reverse 2-piece jaws:
1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2. Remove cap screws that secure top jaw to
master (bottom) jaw.
3. Remove top jaw, rotate it 180°, then re-install
it with longest cap screw in tallest portion of
jaw.
4. Repeat Steps 2–3 with each remaining jaw
(we recommend only reversing one jaw at a
time to keep all original parts together).
