Using the Titan III Chuck 

Mounting Add-On Jaws 

MOUNTING ADD-ON JAWS 
Your standard Nova Titan 
5in chuck is provided with 
PowerGrip add-on jaws.  
They need to be located and 
screwed on to the jaw slides 
of the chuck. The same 
procedure outlined below 
must be followed for all 
accessory jaws as well. IT IS 
IMPORTANT TO LOCATE 
JAWS PROPERLY IN THE 
JAW SLIDES FOR THE 
CHUCK TO FUNCTION 
ACCURATELY. 
 

 

Follow the method set out below 

1.  You will notice that the back of the jaws have a stepped location 

ring.  This location ring is designed to fit into the grooved section of 
the jaw slide for precision location. Ensure that the slide and collet 
back are clean and free from any burrs or damage that might affect 
location. Place the jaw segment over the hole positions on the jaw. 
Press the jaw segment firmly onto the jaw slide. For the first few 
times you may need to GENTLY tap the jaws into the locator slot 
with a block of wood. 

2.  The screws can now be screwed in, using the 4mm Allen Key 

provided. Lightly grease or oil screws under each head and on the 
threads before use to prevent the screws from seizing in the jaw.  
Preferably use an anti-seize compound e.g.  ROCOL J 166 Anti-
Seize Compound.  Do all screws up finger tight and then back them 
off one quarter to half a turn.
