clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.

CHUCK REMOVAL
See Figures 10 - 12, page 12.

Insert a 5/16 in. or larger hex key into the chuck of the drill and tighten the chuck jaws securely.
Tap the hex key sharply with a mallet in a clockwise direction. This will loosen the screw in the chuck for easy removal.

Open the chuck jaws.
Insert the hex key into the chuck and tighten the chuck jaws securely. Tap the hex key sharply with a mallet in a clockwise direction. This will tighten the chuck on the spindle.
