these.steps:

1. UNPLUG.THE.DRILL.PRESS!

2.. Use the chuck key to remove the old drill

bit, and open the chuck wide enough to

accept the new bit or the sanding drum

mandrel (see

Figure.33).

3.. Install the bit or mandrel so the chuck jaws

will grab as much of the bit or mandrel

shank as it can.

• If you are installing a small drill bit, make

sure it is held between three jaws instead

of only two, and NEVER allow a chuck to

grab the fluted body of drill bits.

4.. Using any of the three key locations,

tighten the chuck with the chuck key and

remove.the.key (see Figure.34).
