INSTALLING DRILL BITS
– cont’d
This drill is equipped with a single sleeve
keyless chuck.
1. To open the keyless drill chuck, grasp
and hold the chuck body (1) and
rotate it in a counter-clockwise
direction (2) until the chuck jaws (3)
open wide enough to accept the bit (4)
(Fig. 11).
NOTE:
The chuck spindle will
automatically lock when drill is stopped.
2. Insert the bit into the chuck the full
length of the jaws. Raise the front of
your drill slightly to prevent the bit from
falling out of the chuck jaws.
3. Tighten the chuck jaws onto the bit by
turning the chuck body in a clockwise
direction.
NOTE:
Make sure the bit is properly
aligned in the jaws and NOT at an angle.
An improperly aligned bit could be thrown
from the chuck when drill is started. Make
sure flat sides of the screwdriver bit are
being grasped by the chuck jaws.
4. Finish tightening the chuck jaws.
Firmly grasp the chuck body with your
hand and rotate it in a clockwise
direction. The automatic spindle lock
will prevent the spindle from rotating
while the chuck body is being
tightened.
NOTE:
Hand tighten chuck jaws. Do NOT
use pliers.
WARNING:
Do not insert the drill
bit into the chuck and tighten as shown
in Fig. 12. The drill bit MUST be properly
inserted with all three of the chuck jaws
holding the bit centered in the chuck.
