How to Change a Ryobi Drill

Ryobi is a manufacturer of many power tools, including power drills that are used to drill holes in wood, metal and other materials. Ryobi makes both electric and battery-powered drills. The battery on the Ryobi drill is rechargeable. When bits ware down or if you need a specific size for a specific job, you will have to change it on your drill.

Instructions

- 1
  Grasp the back of the battery pack at the bottom base of the hand grip. Push in on the small indented release lever and slide the Ryobi battery off.
- 2
  Hold the Ryobi's chuck collar tightly with one hand. It is located between the chuck lock and the spinning rotation selector.
- 3
  Twist the chuck lock counterclockwise, or left, firmly until the chuck collar loosens its grip on the drill bit.
- 4
  Pull the old drill bit out and slide the new one in.
- 5
  Grasp the chuck collar again with one hand. Twist the chuck lock to the right tightly until the new drill bit is tight.
- 6
  Replace the slide-on battery pack and squeeze the trigger once or twice just to make sure it looks as if the new bit is clearly centered.
