Using this Rotur drill mandrel chuck set is easy. First, make sure your lathe is turned off. Then, attach the mandrel to the lathe. The 1/2 20tpi UNF thread on the mandrel screws tightly into the drill chuck, so just twist it on firmly. Once attached, you can insert your drill bit into the chuck. Adjust the chuck to fit the size of your drill bit, which can range from 1.5mm to 13mm. When using it for drilling, especially on small workpieces like pen blanks, keep the lathe at a steady speed. For safety, always wear safety glasses. When you're done using the set, clean it with a dry cloth to remove any debris. Store it in a dry place to prevent rust. If you notice any damage or looseness, stop using it and have it checked.
