pletely remove the collet nut from the
shaft unless you are also changing the
collet.
Read the manual before operation.
Become familiar with this tool, its
safety instructions, and its operation
before beginning any work. Serious

the collet wrenches to tighten the collet
nut. Verify that the tooling bit is secure
and will not pull out.
Like all tools there is potential danger
