INSTALLING BITS

See Figures 5 - 6.

Unplug the drill.

Insert the chuck key and twist counterclockwise.

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 the drill slightly to keep the bit from falling out of the chuck jaws.
