COLLET CHUCK CARE
(Model 1825 only)
With the router bit removed, continue to turn
the collet nut counter-clockwise until it is
loose. To assure a firm grip, occasionally
blow out the collet chuck and clean with a
tissue or fine brush. The collet chuck is made
up of two component parts as illustrated (Fig.
6); check to see that the adapter sleeve if
needed is properly seated in the collet nut
and lightly thread the collet nut back onto the
armature shaft. Replace a worn or damaged
collet chuck assembly immediately.
