Well, I'm a total noob, received my rotary tool today (its a cheapo Silverline one which I picked due to low price and very favourable reviews, silverline, being king of el-chepo, didn't bother including a manual which left me at a loss on how to insert the bits I know its not a dremel but its the same design roughly, (non-keyless chuck), so can anyone explain in simple english how to load the bits, I mean without all the 'insert bit into collet' nonsense I can't get my head around Ive searched for the manual on the silverline site but again, no luck, and tried to find the dremel one but that seems to have eluded me.... HELP!
Looking at the business end of the tool there should be a button that you press that stops the shaft rotating, press and hold it. Take the little spanner that came with the tool and unscrew the very end of the shaft (anti-clockwise), no need to unscrew it all the way, just loosen it a bit. Take the bit you want to use and insert the shaft (silver bit) into the hole in the end of the tools shaft, push it all the way in. Then, using the spanner tighten the end of the tools shaft (clockwise). Release the button that prevents the shaft from turning. I can also provide instructions for other taxing tasks such as; Breathing, Eating, Drinking and new for 2010, Sleeping. Moriquendi
