Installing Arbor and Chuck
1.Disconnect machine from power source.
2.Thoroughly clean the entire arbor and the inside of the chuck (Figure 9) with a soft rag and solvent such as mineral spirits. Any grease or residue in these areas can cause the pieces to separate and create a safety hazard as well as damage to the tool.
3.Slide arbor up into the spindle.
4.Firmly push the chuck by hand onto the taper of the arbor.
5.Make sure the jaws of the chuck are opened all the way until they are inside the chuck body. Use a single tap from a rubber mallet, or a hammer and a block of wood, against the bottom of the chuck to seat the chuck securely onto the arbor.
Do not use a steel hammer directly against the chuck, as this may damage the chuck.
