How Do You Secure a Drill

Insert the drill bit into the drill chuck. Tighten the drill chuck only by hand until it clicks several times. Rotate the chuck back the opposite way, until you hear and feel one, single click. Once you hear and feel the last click, the drill bit is locked securely into place.

Why does my drill bit keep falling out of my drill?

The most likely reason your drill bit keeps coming loose is the chuck on your drill is worn out and not locking properly. To fix the issue you can replace the chuck, or if it makes more financial sense, buy a new drill.

Why does my drill click?

There are different settings on the drill for drilling holes and driving screws. If you are trying to drive a screw and the drill is in a lower speed setting, which is used when drilling holes,then a clicking sound could occur.
