Drill Chuck

The drill chuck is attached to the drill spindle by means of matched tapers and screw. To mount the drill chuck to the spindle, carefully follow the instructions below:

1.The drill chuck and spindle must be thor- oughly cleaned before assembly. It is rec- ommended that mineral spirits be used for this task. Refer to the safety warnings on the container. Failure to clean the mating surfaces may result in separation and wear.

2.Use the chuck key provided to adjust the jaws of the chuck until they are well inside the drill chuck body. Figure 18.

DO NOT use a hammer on the drill chuck to seat it onto the spindle. Damage will occur to the oscillating mechanism.

3.Place the drill chuck on the spindle. Insert the Allen® head cap screw into the hole of the drill chuck as in Figure 19. Tighten the screw. The drill chuck should be seated securely on the spindle at this time and should be checked for looseness. If the chuck fails to remain secure on the spindle, repeat step 1 and 2.

Handles

Three handles are supplied with your new Oscillating Drill Press. Thread them into the hub as in Figure 20.
