Drill Changes

Care must be taken to secure the bit firmly in the drill chuck. When changing bits, proceed as follows:

1.Disconnect the machine from the power source.

2.Open the chuck wide enough to accept a drill bit.

3.Install the bit so the chuck jaws will grab as much of the bit shank as it can. Figure 31. Do not allow the chuck to grab the fluted body of the drill bit. Make sure small drill bits do not get trapped between the edges of two jaws.

4.Tighten the chuck with the chuck key using any of the three key end locations. Figure 32.

5.Remove the chuck key and reconnect to the power source.

6.Reverse steps to remove the drill bit.

Never drill or sand with- out the table for support and workpiece properly secured. Serious per- sonal injury may occur.

Installing the sanding drum spindle is identical to installing a drill bit. However, it is important to install the paper and drum before installing the spindle into the drill chuck. See your local retailer for drums and paper.
