    so this year i put the 8″ lite flite on my drill. it cuts great but after 4 or so holes, the collar bolt loosens up and it wobbles pretty bad. what is the solution besides tightening it all the time? i am worried on tightening too much and doing damage to the threads. is thread locker an option? anyone else running the lite flite on a drill having this issue. i had it on my honda powerhead last year and no issues.

    Blue Loctite on the threads.

    Do you all use an adapter of some sort or just chuck your lite flite straight to the drill? Do you chuck it each time you go out or leave the drill chucked and then just take on and off your lite flite?

    I actually got a longer bolt and lock nut with blue loc tight. Haven’t had an issue since.
