1. Support the chuck while turning three camlocks 1/4 turn counter-clockwise with the chuck key enclosed in the tool box.

2. Carefully remove the chuck from the spindle and place on an adequate work surface.

3. Inspect the camlock studs. Make sure they have not become cracked or broken during transit. Clean all parts thoroughly with solvent. Also clean the spindle and camlocks.

4. Cover all chuck jaws and scroll inside the chuck with MobilithAW2. Cover the spindle, cam locks, and chuck body with a light film of Mobil DTEOil Heavy Medium.

The index mark (A, Fig. 3) on the camlock should be between the two indictor arrows (B, Fig. 3). If the index mark is not between the two arrows, remove the chuck and adjust the camlock studs by either turning out one full turn (if cams will not engage) or turning in one full turn (if cams turn beyond indicator marks).
