REMOVING THE CHUCK
– cont’d
3. Tap the hex key sharply with a mallet
(4) in a clockwise direction. This action
will loosen the screw in the chuck for
easy removal.
4. Open chuck jaws and remove the hex
key.
5. Open the chuck jaws as far as
possible.
6. Remove the chuck screw using a
#2 screwdriver (Fig. 24).
NOTE:
Turn the screw CLOCKWISE to
remove it. This screw has a left-handed
thread.
7. Insert the hex key into the chuck and
tighten jaws of chuck securely
(Fig. 25). Tap the hex key sharply with
a mallet in a COUNTER-CLOCKWISE
direction. This will loosen the chuck on
the spindle. The chuck can now be
unscrewed and removed from the
spindle by hand.
RETIGHTENING A LOOSE CHUCK
After installing a chuck that has previously
been removed, the chuck may become
loose on the spindle and develop a
wobble. Also, the chuck screw may
become loose, causing the chuck jaws to
bind and preventing them from closing. To
tighten the chuck, follow these steps:
1. Insert the hex key into the chuck and
tighten the chuck securely.
