Chuck replacement

The chucks of reversible drills are always fixed by a screw with a left-hand thread. The screw, which is located in the centre of the chuck, must be removed before the chuck can be removed. To remove the screw, turn it in a clockwise direction. The chuck can now be removed by unscrewing it anti-clockwise. If you have trouble removing the chuck take the drill to your nearest authorised service centre for chuck replacement.

Caution. Always ensure that the drill is switched off and the battery pack is removed before making any adjustments.
