Collets
The collet must be attached to the collet nut before
it is put into the collet shaft. Be sure that the size of
the collet matches the size of the bit shank being
used. If the wrong size bit shank is used, the collet
may break. For attaching or detaching the collet
nut to the collet, follow the illustrated instructions
on this page.
Attaching Collet to Collet Nut
To assemble, place the narrow end of the collet
on an even surface. Take the nut and place it over
the collet.
Position nut squarely over collet with the smaller
opening of the nut facing up.
Snap nut and collet together by firmly applying
downward pressure into assembly with palm of
hand.
