KEYLESS CHUCK

See Figure 4.

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 bit. 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.

INSTALLING BITS

■ Place the direction of rotation selector in center position.

This will turn off the power to your drill.

■ Open or close the chuck jaws to a point where the

opening is slightly larger than the bit size you intend to

use. Also, raise the front of your drill slightly to keep the

bit from falling out of the chuck jaws.

■ Insert your drill bit into the chuck the full length of the

jaws.

See Figure 5.

■ Tighten the chuck jaws on the drill bit. To tighten, grasp

and hold the collar of the chuck with one hand, while

rotating the chuck body with your other hand.

Note: Rotate the chuck body in the direction of the arrow

marked GRIP to tighten the chuck jaws. DO NOT use a

wrench to tighten or loosen the chuck jaws.

WARNING:

Do not insert drill bit into chuck jaws and tighten as shown

in figure 6. This could cause drill bit to be thrown from

drill resulting in possible serious personal injury or

damage to the chuck.
