Changing Bits

The Model G9969 is equipped with a key chuck,
which  can  be  opened  and  securely  closed  by
using  the  included  chuck  key.  Any  drill  bit  you
install  in  the  chuck  must  be  installed  tightly
enough that it will not come loose during opera-
tion.

To install a drill bit:

1. UNPLUG THE DRILL PRESS!

2. Open the drill chuck wide enough to accept

the shank of the drill bit.

3. Insert the drill bit as far as possible into the

chuck WITHOUT allowing the chuck jaws to
touch the fluted portion of the bit, and hand
tighten the chuck.

Wear safety glasses when

operating this machine.

Serious injury may occur

if this warning is ignored!
