1. Place the components on a surface and clean with compressed air.
*Debris caught in the tool holder can cause the tool to slip, damaging the tool and equipment.

4. Insert the tool.
*Do not tighten on the flutes
*Make sure enough of the shank is in the collet to properly hold the tool - tool should fill ~80% of the length of the collet.
