Click the collet into the nut first, then insert the end mill fully.
-
Fix the collet with a maximum torque of 10-11Nm. Tighten the collet by hand, then a 1/8 turn with a spanner, this should be about right.
-
Keep the collet lubricated with a solid lubricant (e.g. Molykote P-40) or by lightly greasing.

Katsu
-
Push the collet into the shaft and then the nut over it. The end mill can then be inserted fully.
-
Only use the button on the side to hand tighten the collet. To fully tighten, use two spanners, a 13 spanner on the flat portion of the shaft, the included 22mm spanner on the collet nut.
