Do not tighten the collet nut without inserting a bit. It can lead to breakage of the collet cone.

Insert the bit all the way into the collet cone and tighten the collet nut securely with the two wrenches.

A 6 mm or 1/4" collet cone is also provided as standard equipment besides the 8 mm or 3/8" collet cone that is factory installed on the tool. Use the correct size collet cone for the bit which you intend to use.

To remove the bit, follow the installation procedure in reverse.

NOTE:

Moving the tool forward too fast may cause a poor quality of cut, or damage to the bit or motor. Moving the tool forward too slowly may burn and mar the cut. The proper feed rate will depend on the bit size, the kind of workpiece and depth of cut. Before beginning the cut on the actual workpiece, it is advisable to make a sample cut on a piece of scrap lumber. This will show exactly how the cut will look as well as enable you to check dimensions.

When using the straight guide, be sure to install it on the right side in the feed direction. This will help to keep it flush with the side of the workpiece.
