    How do you secure bit in tool?
    ByDec 26, 2024
    2 Answers | 
    Answer This Question

    To secure the bit in the model number DCE555B, ensure to use the correct power tool for the application and follow proper safety guidelines. Always hold the tool securely with both hands, use the depth guide to control cutting depth, and avoid starting the tool with the bit engaged in the material to prevent accidents

      To replace the bit, depress both the spindle lock button and collet lock, and turn the collet grip counterclockwise.

            No, the guide does not extend out far enough for the bit to only extend out 1/4".

                          With my old hands I find it cumbersome to tighten the collet around the bit. In order to get the collet tight, I have to remove the cutter depth gauge. I have resigned to using a very small adjustable wrench to snug the collet. I like the tool very much. It works extremely well.
