Metabo KHA 36 LTX Original Instructions Manual page 15

Inserting tools:
- Turn tool and insert until it engages. The tool is
locked automatically.
Removing the tool:
See page 2, fig. A.
- Pull tool lock (4) backwards in direction indicated
by arrow (a) and remove tool (b).
7.8 Tool change with keyless chuck
Use the keyless chuck when non-impact drilling in
metal, wood etc. and driving screws.
Tighten the tool (see page 2, fig. B):
Turn sleeve (2) in direction "AUF, RELEASE" (a).
Insert tool as deeply as possible (b) and turn sleeve
in the opposite direction, until any perceptible
mechanical resistance is overcome (c). Caution!
The chuck is not yet fully tightened!
Keep turning the sleeve (it must "click" when
turning) until it cannot be turned any further - only
now is the tool securely clamped.
With a soft tool shank, retightening may be required
after a short period of operation.
Note: The grating sound that may be heard after the
drill chuck is opened is purely functional; it is
stopped by turning the sleeve in the opposite direc-
tion.
If the chuck is very securely tightened: Unplug. Hold
drill chuck using an open-end spanner at the flats on
its head, and turn the sleeve (2) vigourously in the
direction of "AUF, OPEN".
7.9 Metabo VibraTech (MVT)
For reduced vibrations and less stress on the
hands.
Always apply a moderate amount of pressure to the
handle when pushing down the machine and do not
force. Vibrations are reduced most effectively at the
central position (9).
8. Maintenance, cleaning
- Ventilation slits:
Clean the ventilation slits on the machine occa-
sionally.
- Remove the battery pack periodically and wipe
the contact area of the battery pack and machine
with a dry cloth and remove drilling dust.
- Always keep the spindle (6) clean and apply a
light coating of grease. (Special grease: Order
No.: 6.31800)
- Keyless chuck (1) cleaning:
After prolonged use, hold the chuck vertically, with
the opening facing down, and fully close it and
open it several times. The dust collected falls from
the opening. The application of cleaning spray to
the jaws and jaw openings at regular intervals is
recommended.
f 9. Accessories

System) battery packs and accessories.
