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.
