INSTALLING BITS

The bits are held by a collet system. Use either the 1/8", 1/4" or 5/32" collet depending on the size of the bit shank.

Depress and hold the shaft-lock in and rotate the collet nut and shaft until the shaft-lock engages and holds the shaft.

Use the included wrench to loosen the nut by rotating it counter-clockwise (Fig 4). Remove the old bit (if there is one) and insert the new bit as far as possible. Re-engage the shaft lock and tighten the nut by rotating it

clockwise by hand, then with the wrench until the bit is held securely.
