OPERATION
KEYLESS CHUCK
See Figure 6.
A keyless chuck has been provided with your drill to allow for
easy installation and removal of bits. As the name implies,
you can hand tighten or release drill bits in the chuck jaws.
Grasp and hold the collar of the chuck with one hand. Rotate
the chuck body with your other hand. The arrows on the
chuck indicate which direction to rotate the chuck body in
order to GRIP (tighten) or RELEASE (unlock) the drill bit.
WARNING:
Do not hold the chuck body with one hand and use the
power of the drill to tighten chuck jaws on drill bits. Chuck
body could slip in your hand or your hand could slip and
come in contact with rotating drill bit. This could cause
an accident resulting in serious personal injury.
