| + | [title] Fitting a New Chuck |
|---|---|
| + | [* black] If there's no retaining screw and you anticipate forceful counterclockwise action (as when unscrewing), apply a small amount of threadlocking compound to the spindle thread. |
| + | [* black] Use a medium-strength variety, not the kind you'll have to heat with a blowtorch if you need to take off the chuck again at a later stage! |
| + | [* black] Screw the chuck onto the spindle as far as it will go. You don't need to tighten it with excessive force, it will tighten with clockwise normal use. |
| + | [* black] Insert and tighten the retaining screw if present. If it's damaged, use a fresh one to spare yourself some aggravation down the road. It doesn't hurt to also treat these threads to a dab of threadlocker. |
