CHANGING COLLETS
See Figure 3.

To change the collet:
Unplug the rotary tool.
Press and hold the spindle lock, and rotate the shaft by
hand until the spindle lock engages the shaft, preventing
further rotation.
With the spindle lock engaged, use the collet wrench to
loosen the collet nut, if necessary.

wrench, if necessary.
Insert the unslotted end of the collet in the hole in the end
of the tool shaft.
Replace the collet nut on the shaft.
WARNING:
Always use the collet which matches the shank size of the
accessory you plan to use. Never force a large diameter
shank into a collet. The accessory should fit smoothly into
the collet, but you should be able to tighten the accessory
firmly and securely with the provided wrench.
