Nova jaws, what are these holes for?

Post by reible »

I've just ordered a larger set of jaws for my Nova chucks and noticed these holes. Just wondering what they are for, none of my other jaws have them but then they are all smaller......... They should be here on Monday so maybe the paper work will tell me but if you just happen to already know? Please don't waste your own time looking it up, just if you know and post a line of two that would be great.

Strange it works for me but could be because I already have it downloaded.
