case when not in use.
1. Remove the collet cover (4)
and then loosen the collet
nut (3) by turning them anti-
clockwise (fig. J).
2. Insert the inner cable of the
flexible shaft into the motor
shaft until the stopper does
not permit the shaft to be
inserted any further (fig. K).
3. Hand tighten the collet
nut (3) by turning the nut
clockwise (fig. L).
4. Thread the flexible shaft
collet cover onto the rotary
tool housing and turn it
