INSTALLING BITS
■Place the direction of rotation selector in center position. This will turn off the power to your drill.
■Open or close the chuck jaws to a point where the opening is slightly larger than the bit size you intend to use. Also, raise the front of your drill slightly to keep the bit from falling out of the chuck jaws.
■Insert your drill bit into the chuck the full length of the jaws. See Figure 5.
■Tighten the chuck jaws on the drill bit. To tighten, grasp and hold the collar of the chuck with one hand, while rotating the chuck body with your other hand.
Note: Rotate the chuck body in the direction of the arrow marked GRIP to tighten the chuck jaws. DO NOT use a wrench to tighten or loosen the chuck jaws.
WARNING:
Do not insert drill bit into chuck jaws and tighten as shown in figure 6. This could cause drill bit to be thrown from drill resulting in possible serious personal injury or damage to the chuck.
