HOW TO USE

1. Mounting and dismounting of the bit
(1) Mounting the bit
Loosen the sleeve by turning it toward the left (in
the counterclockwise direction as viewed from
the front) to open the clip on the keyless chuck.
After inserting a driver bit, etc., into the keyless
drill chuck, and tighten the sleeve by turning it
toward the right (in the clockwise direction as
viewed from the front). (See Fig. 8)
NOTE
If the sleeve becomes loose during operation, tighten it further.
The tightening force becomes stronger when the sleeve is tightened.
(2) Dismounting the bit
Loosen the sleeve by turning it toward the left (in the counterclockwise direction as viewed
from the front), and then take out the bit etc. (See Fig. 8)
NOTE
○ When it is no longer possible to loosen the sleeve, use a vise or similar instrument to
secure the bit. Set the clutch mode between 1 and 11 and then turn the sleeve to the loose
side (left side) while operating the clutch. It should be easy now to loosen the sleeve.
