What is the typical best way to seat a MT tool? I've tended to just stick
them in a clean
socket with bit of velocity so they bottom with some force.


On my radial drill (MT4 or MT5) you have to turn the quill down manually
against the stock without the machine running to press it in. I haven't
done it, but i know this machine would shear that tang right off. BTW, I
don't know my morse numbers. This machine is the size you find on 2" drill
bits.
