General Maintenance
Depending on use, it may be necessary to periodically clean your chuck. To do so, start by
using compressed air to blow off dust and debris. Always wear protective googles when doing
this to protect your eyes. For stubborn, stuck-on debris use a tooth brush or soft-bristled
brass brush.
Compressed air and brushing should be all that is needed to clean a chuck. If, however,
these do not clean the chuck, soak it in mineral spirits for 30 minutes and blow dry. Apply
lubricant to the gears as the solvent will probably dissolve previously applied lubricant.
Periodically spray a small amount of dry lubricant through the wrench hole into the inside
of the chuck to lubricate the mating parts. Light grease will also work. Wipe off any excess
lubricant. If you use a light grease for a lubricant, spin the chuck on your lathe starting at a
low speed and slowly increase it to “throw” off any excess lubricant.
