17. Thoroughly clean entire arbor and inside of
chuck (Figure 11) with a soft rag and solvent,
such as mineral spirits. Any grease or residue
in these areas can cause the pieces to
separate, creating a safety hazard and
potential damage to the tool.
(Note: Your chuck and arbor may have come
preassembled. If so, you only need to clean
the exposed arbor at this time.)

18. Slide arbor up into spindle.
19. Firmly push chuck by hand onto taper of arbor.
20. Rotate chuck until the jaws are completely
retracted into the chuck (to prevent damage to
jaws). Use two or three sharp taps from a
rubber mallet, or a hammer and a block of
wood, against bottom of chuck to seat chuck
securely onto arbor.
Do not use a steel hammer
directly against chuck, as this may damage
chuck.
