Use of collets

When using collets for the reception of milling tools, a higher operation tolerance can be
achieved. The exchange of the collet for a smaller or larger end mill cutter is performed simply
and rapidly and it is not necessary to remove the complete tool. The collet is pressed into the
ring of the swivel nut and must rest there by itself. The milling cutter is clamped by fastening the
swivel nut on the tool. Make sure that the correct collet is used for each milling cutter diameter,
so that the milling cutter may be fastened securely and firmly.
