DISCONNECT THE
BENCH DRILL PRESS FROM THE POWER
SOURCE BEFORE INSTALLING, ADJUSTING,
OR REMOVING THE CHUCK.
To install the chuck (Fig. 10)
1. Inspect and clean the taper hole in the chuck
(1) and the spindle (2). Remove all grease,
coatings, and particles from the chuck and
spindle surfaces with a clean cloth.
2. Open the chuck jaws (3) by manually turning
the chuck barrel clockwise. Make sure the jaws
are completely recessed inside the chuck.
3. Insert the chuck arbor (4) into the opening at
the top of the chuck (1).
4. Seat the chuck and chuck arbor on the spindle
by placing a block of wood (5; not included) under
the chuck (1) and tapping the wood with a
hammer (6; not included) or tap the chuck with a
rubber mallet (not included).
To avoid damaging the
chuck, make sure the jaws are completely
recessed into the chuck. Do not use a metal
hammer to drive the chuck into the spindle.
To remove the chuck (Fig. 11)
1. Turn the feed handles (1) to lower the chuck
(2) to the lowest position.
2. Place a ball joint separator (3; not included)
above the chuck and tap the separator lightly with
a hammer (4; not included) to cause the
chuck to drop from the spindle.
Note: To avoid possible damage to the drill or
chuck, be prepared to catch the chuck as it falls.
