CHUCK REMOVAL
See Figures 13, 14, and 15.
The chuck must be removed in order to use some
accessories. To remove:
Lock the switch trigger by placing the direction of rotation
selector in center position.
Insert a 5/16 inch or larger allen wrench (hex key wrench)
into the chuck of your drill and tighten the chuck jaws
securely.
Tap the allen wrench sharply with a mallet in a clockwise
direction.
See Figure 13.
This will loosen the screw in
the chuck for easy removal.
Open chuck jaws and remove allen wrench. Remove
the chuck screw by turning it in a clockwise direction.
See Figure 14.
Note: The screw has left hand
threads.
Insert allen wrench in chuck and tighten chuck jaws
securely. Tap sharply with a mallet in a counterclockwise
direction. This will loosen chuck on the spindle. It can
now be unscrewed by hand.
See Figure 15.

The chuck may become loose on spindle and develop a
wobble. Also, the chuck screw may become loose causing
the chuck jaws to bind and prevent them from closing. To
tighten, follow these steps:
Lock the switch trigger by placing the direction of rotation
selector in center position.
Insert allen wrench into chuck and tighten chuck jaws
securely. Tap allen wrench sharply with a mallet in a
clockwise direction. This will tighten chuck on the spindle.
