How to Drill a Drill into a Drill

An indispensable power tool in the home with a telling name, a screwdriver is actively used in construction work. The most common procedure with such a device is to replace the drill. Sometimes it seems that this process is very complex and almost impossible. However, in fact, replacing the drill in a screwdriver will not be difficult, the main thing is to follow the instructions step by step and pay attention to the details.

Screwdriver Features

By a screwdriver is meant the same drill, but it has a lower chuck rotation speed and the ability to adjust the twisting force. Many hours of spinning and spinning with their own hands still did not give anyone pleasure. Screwdriver will help quickly and efficiently roll out and tighten the fasteners. Also, using this device, you can make holes in materials of various densities. Metal, wood and stone. The power of the screwdriver comes from the mains or battery.

The construction device is divided into the following types:

  • Standard;
  • Cordless screwdriver;
  • Drill / driver;
  • Wrench.

All types of tools differ only in purpose: a screwdriver (usual) is used only in work with fasteners, a drill will help to drill the necessary hole, a screwdriver is designed to twist and unscrew fastener elements with a cross-shaped “hat”, a device with a speaking name wrench copes with bolts and nuts.

Cutting tool replacement

The “tail” of the drill screwdriver is fixed in the chuck. It comes in different sizes, like nozzles. If the cutting tool is not installed correctly, a screwdriver can cause damage to the work process and damage to health. For example, due to the “wrong” drill, holes of different sizes with a damaged surface can be obtained. A sharp element when “flying out” of the cartridge will cause serious injury.

Most modern screwdrivers have cam chucks. They consist of a cylindrical body, as well as sleeves and cams. When the sleeve rotates clockwise, the cams simultaneously press the drill.

The process of replacing it is simple, but has a number of individual features. The whole process can be described as follows:

  • It is necessary to choose the necessary nozzle (bit) for the drill;
  • Then you need to take the cutting tool and install it in the center of the chuck (between the open “cams”);
  • Then it should be fixed by turning the sleeve clockwise (with a key type cartridge, the key is installed in the recess);
  • Twist the sleeve to secure the nozzle.

Changing the drill is easy, but first you need to pull out the previous one. There are the following options for the development of the situation:

  • Standard removal of a drill (the cartridge has no damage);
  • Pulling out the drill in the absence of a key;
  • Removing a stuck cutting element.

With the screwdriver working properly, problems should not arise when replacing his working tool. The operation is elementary. To do this, take the key, which is designed to loosen the cartridge, and insert it into the recess. Twist counterclockwise. The unwinding is carried out due to special cloves that are on the objects. There is also another option for removing the drill. To do this, turn on the reverse rotation mode on the screwdriver, hold the external case of the cartridge and press the “start” button. In this way, the drill bit is easily released.

In the absence of a special key, the drill can be removed using a Phillips screwdriver or nail. It must be inserted into the recess on the cartridge and fix its half. Turn the opposite part of the cartridge with your hand. However, if such unwinding does not bring results, then we take a gas key or a vice. These tools will help strengthen the rotation of the cartridge. If the previous options for pulling the drill failed, then you should resort to “heavy artillery.” In some cases, getting a drill is complicated by its external damage. In this situation, it is necessary to relax the “fists” with the help of gas keys and a vise. We completely clamp the cartridge with the keys and rotate (loosen).

In this process, the simultaneous use of both a key and a vise is encouraged. You can also take a hammer and apply light blows to the cartridge. Vibration from blows helps to relax.

A radical option in the most hopeless situation will be twisting the cartridge with a screwdriver. To do this, squeeze it in a vice and forcefully knock out the cutting tool from the inside with a punch. Naturally, after such a procedure, a screwdriver should be attributed to repair. Summing up, it is worth noting that the procedure for inserting a drill into a screwdriver is quite simple and even someone who has never done this can handle it. The main thing in this process is to follow the recommendations.
