Twist the silver/black tip (chuck) where the bit goes into. Also there should be a removable chuck key on the drill to tighten the chuck. They are universal so if yours is missing, you can buy a new one.
I take upon yourself this drill has a keyless chuck, which means you twist the the end of the drill by hand to tighten and loosen the chuck.
If it has adjustable speeds (1-15) for example at the end there should be a picture that looks like a drill bit. If you set it there, you can hold the black rubberized part while in succession the tool to tighten or loosen its grip on the bit. On this setting the drill speed is adjustable to how tightly you pull the trigger. On the other settings its a bit tough on your hands.
If it’s a regular drill they all have you covered, BUT if its a hammer drill then it may have a different kind of chuck. these are smaller, no teeth, and probably smooth and smaller than the normal chuck, the drill bit has a larger section about 1 to 1 1/2 inches long this section has three modest pockets located in the sides of this swollen part. You just insert this into the chuck and pull the chuck back toward the body of the drill. the drill bit becomes safe and sound in place to remove it just reverse the administer. these drills usually have three kinds of functions, there is a switch on the side that changes the function. It will drill like a conventional drill, or the bit will go in and out in a hammering shift, or it will do both at the same time hence the name hammer drill. It is for drilling holes in masonry, You can even get a chisel for breaking up concrete.
Bosch makes a fantastic tool line, too terrible they are moving all their operation to China…….
they already did go to china!
