Assembly and adjustments (continued)


Angular play of the spindle

(Fig. 24)


Move the spindle to the lowest downward position and hold
in place. With your other hand, try to make it revolve around
its axis with a side motion. If there is too much play proceed
as follows:

1. Loosen the lock nut (1).

2. Turn the screw (2) clockwise to eliminate the play but

without obstructing the upward and downward motion of
the spindle (a little bit of play is normal).


3. Tighten the lock nut (1).

Install drill bits

(Fig. 25)


1. Place the chuck key (1) into the side keyhole of

the chuck (2), meshing the gear teeth (3).


2. Turn the chuck key counterclockwise to open the

chuck jaws (4).


3. Insert a drill bit into the chuck far enough to

obtain maximum gripping of the chuck jaws.


4. Center the drill bit in the chuck jaws before final tightening of the chuck.

5. Use the chuck key for the final tightening to make sure the drill bit will not slip while drilling.


WARNING:
To avoid injury, make sure the chuck key is removed from the chuck before
starting any drilling operation.
