hold it place by tightening the quill lock
lever.
4. Use a 17mm wrench to unscrew the drawbar
2–3 full turns without removing the threads
from the arbor (see

5. Using a brass hammer or rubber mallet, strike
the drawbar from the top, as shown in
Figure

hand, unthread the drawbar completely from
the arbor.
