How to use

To install the collet cone, first ensure that the power tool is disconnected from the power source. Loosen the collet nut completely and remove the existing collet if necessary. Insert the new collet cone into the spindle, ensuring it is properly seated. Insert your chosen bit into the collet, then tighten the collet nut securely using the appropriate wrenches. Always verify that the bit is held firmly and that there is no excessive runout before starting the tool.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the compatibility of your specific Makita tool model
• Check the required collet size for your router or drill
• Ensure the collet nut is in good condition before installation
• Confirm the intended bit shank diameter matches the collet size

Usage recommendations: Regularly inspect the collet cone for signs of wear, debris buildup, or damage. Keep the collet and the spindle clean to ensure optimal grip and prevent bit slippage. If the collet shows signs of deformation or fails to hold the bit securely, replace it immediately to maintain operational safety.
