coupling. If there is already another arbor in the machine,

2. To insert the universal tap chuck or accessory, push up on the
Quick-Release Collar and insert the shank into the coupling.
Turn until the tangs line up and the Collar is able to close.
Ensure that it is securely in place.
3. Using the universal tap chuck, use the key to turn it to open its
jaws enough to fit the square of the tap. Ensure that the
corners of the square are properly located in the jaws. Then use
the key to securely tighten the chuck.
NOTE: Make sure that the tap is inserted as deeply as possible
into the jaws. An improperly seated tap will run off center and
could result in damage to the jaws or tap.
4. If it is in drilling mode, shift the gearbox to tapping mode by
swinging the gear selector tab out of the detent slot then
shifting downwards into tapping mode. Then pop the selector
tab back into the detent. It will sometimes be
necessary to turn the spindle by hand a little to
get it to shift all the way.
Only grab the arbor when turning the spindle,
never the quick-release collar. Otherwise, it will be
easy to accidentally release the arbor and it will
fall out. Follow the “TAP” symbol on the gear case. (The small arrow on the tab will be pointing upwards
when it is shifted correctly).
