Changing Bits

The Model G9969 is equipped with a key chuck, which can be opened and securely closed by using the included chuck key. Any drill bit you install in the chuck must be installed tightly enough that it will not come loose during opera- tion.

To install a drill bit:

1.UNPLUG THE DRILL PRESS!

2.Open the drill chuck wide enough to accept the shank of the drill bit.

3.Insert the drill bit as far as possible into the chuck WITHOUT allowing the chuck jaws to touch the fluted portion of the bit, and hand tighten the chuck.
