Your tool features a keyless chuck with one rotating sleeve for one-
handed operation of the chuck. To insert a drill bit or other accessory,
follow these steps.
1. Turn tool off and disconnect tool from power source.
2. Grasp the black sleeve of the chuck (D) with one hand and use
the other hand to secure the tool as shown in Figure 7. Rotate the
sleeve counterclockwise (as viewed from the front) far enough to
accept the desired accessory.
3. Insert the accessory about 3/4" (19 mm) into the chuck and
tighten securely by rotating the chuck sleeve clockwise with one
hand while holding the tool with the other hand. Continue to rotate
the chuck sleeve until several ratchet clicks are heard to ensure full
gripping power.
Be sure to tighten chuck with one hand on the chuck sleeve and one
hand holding the tool for maximum tightness.
To release the accessory, repeat Steps 1 and 2 above.
