the front support bar.
Push down on the bottom of the dust foot and remove it. Set the dust
foot away from the Desktop.
Hold the end of the spindle to keep it from moving, and thread
the collet nut onto the spindle. If resistance is encountered, do
NOT apply more force. Try again until it goes smoothly. Reposi-
tion the bit as necessary.
Tools Required:
• Wrenches, Collet (included)
Tighten nut with wrenches.
NOTE: Over-tightening will make the collet difficult to remove
and possibly damage it. Under-tightening will allow the bit to
slip during operation.
A firm one-hand squeeze (approximately 59 ft-lbs) is usually
sufficient.
