TO RETIGHTEN A LOOSE CHUCK
The chuck may become loose on the spindle and develop
a wobble. Also, the chuck screw may become loose,
causing the chuck jaws to bind and prevent them from
closing. To tighten:
[] Unplug the drill.
[] Open the chuck jaws.
[] Insert a hex key into the chuck and tighten chuck jaws
securely. Tap the hex key sharply with a mallet in a
clockwise direction. This will tighten the chuck on the
spindle.
