Installation  
1. UNPLUG THE MACHINE FROM POWER!  
2. Mount the back plate on the spindle.  
3. Accurately measure the inside of the back  
relief bore on the chuck. This dimension is  
critical and should be 0.001''.  
* Maximum handle torque and gripping force  
is given at full jaw and scroll gear engage-  
ment. If jaw and scroll gear are partially  
engaged, clamping force and gripping force is  
reduced.  
4. Face the back plate to true it. Make passes  
across the face until its entire surface has  
been cut.  
5. Turn a shoulder into the face 18'' deep and  
0.001" to 0.002'' larger than the back relief  
bore diameter. Remember that this is a press  
fit. Chamfer the corner a small amount to  
prevent any burrs when installing.

For optimum performance from your chuck,  
follow the maintenance schedule below, and  
never hammer on the chuck, jaws, or a workpiece  
clamped in the chuck. Never subject the chuck to  
abrasives, flame, or water.  
Note: Each jaw is marked  
1, 2, or 3 to correspond  
to its marked slot in the  
chuck.

components. Inspect all bores, teeth, pins,  
and mating surfaces for wear, burrs, galling,  
rust, or cracks.  
Use a vacuum, rag, or brush to clean the  
chuck after use. Never use air pressure to  
clean chips away from a chuck.  
6. Without changing the dimension of any part,  
use a wire brush, emery cloth, or dressing  
stones, to remove all rust, burrs, and any  
high spots caused by galling.  
Avoid leaving the chuck clamped on a  
workpiece, unload the chuck jaws daily.  
Make sure the chuck key is removed from  
the chuck when not using the key.  
7. Coat all parts with any automotive NLGI #2  
grease, and carefully reassemble the chuck  
in the reverse order shown in Figure 2.  
If the chuck ever becomes stiff to operate, it may  
have been contaminated with metal chips or  
abrasives from neglect or poor service practices.  
The chuck must be dissembled, cleaned, and re-  
lubricated.  
8. Rotate the chuck key clockwise until you  
see the tip of the scroll-gear lead thread just  
begin to enter jaw guide #1.  
To disassemble the chuck for a full cleaning  
and lubrication service:  
9. Insert jaw #1 into jaw guide #1, and hold the  
jaw against the scroll-gear.  
1. UNPLUG THE MACHINE FROM POWER!  
10. Rotate the chuck key clockwise one turn to  
engage the tip of the scroll-gear lead thread  
into the jaw. Pull the jaw; it should be locked  
into the jaw guide.  
2. Mark the chuck and the mounting plate  
where they mate to ensure that when  
reassembled both halves line up. Next,  
unbolt the chuck and separate both halves.  
11. Install the other jaws in the same manner,  
3. Insert and rotate the chuck key  
counterclockwise until the scroll-gear has  
released all three jaws.  
and install a new grease fitting.  
12. Line up the timing mark on the chuck and  
the mounting plate, and fasten both halves  
by tightening and torquing the fasteners as  
outlined in Step 9 in Chuck Installation.  
4. Using a basic set of metric hex wrenches  
and a #1 standard screwdriver, start at #1  
and disassemble the chuck in the sequence  
shown in Figure 2.
