Terry,

I checked the manual for the G8690 and it has a 3/4"-10 threads per inch
- right hand threaded spindle nose. That thread size seems to be an odd
size. Grizzly has two chucks that takes an insert for that thread size.
They both are 6 inch diameter chucks (swing on the g8690 is 6 and 5/8")
- one is a three jaw self centering and one is a four jaw independent
centering chuck. Grizzly also has a two inch chuck that fits the mt#1 taper.

Hope this helps,

Jack
