INSTALLING BITS

• Place the direction of rotation selector in center position. This will turn off the power to your drill.
• Open or close the chuck jaws to a point where the opening is slightly larger than the bit size you intend to use. Also, raise the front of your drill slightly to keep the bit from falling out of the chuck jaws.
• Insert your drill bit into the chuck the full length of the jaws. See Figure 5.
• Tighten the chuck jaws on the drill bit. To tighten, grasp and hold the collar of the chuck with one hand, while rotating the chuck body with your other hand.

Note: Rotate the chuck body in the direction of the arrow marked GRIP to tighten the chuck jaws. DO NOT use a wrench to tighten or loosen the chuck jaws

A keyless chuck has been provided with your drill to allow for easy installation and removal of bits. As the name implies, you can hand tighten or release drill bits in the chuck jaws. Grasp and hold the collar of the chuck with one hand. Rotate the chuck body with your other hand. The arrows on the chuck indicate which direction to rotate the chuck body in order to GRIP (tighten) or RELEASE (unlock) the drill bit.
