INSTALLING A CUTTING BIT INTO THE FLEXIBLE SHAFT

1 To insert a cutting bit into the flexible shaft collet, pull the shaft locking collar (1) back (Fig. 26).
While holding the shaft locking collar back, rotate collet nut (2) until the shaft locking collar engag-
es the shaft. Loosen the collet nut by using the 3/8" collet wrench (3) to turn the collet nut counter
clockwise.
2. When collet is loose, insert accessory (4) and turn collet clockwise to tighten, making sure the
accessory is centred in the collet. Use the flat wrench to tighten the collet nut.
NOTE: The flexible shaft uses a 1/8" collet that will accept all cutting accessories with a 1/8" shank.
3. Rotate the collet by hand to ensure cutting bit does not wobble.
