Thank you. I love the way that you just get to the point and you don’t mess around and quit quick video for tutorial. Thank you again.

Thank you Mr. mending shed. Clear,quick and concise. May you live long and get sponsors!

Thank you very much! After viewing several other "how to" videos and almost giving up, yours gave me a couple more ideas and one of them worked! Saved me buying a new drill.

I tried to remove two chucks today after watching this and it was a no go. The drill would just spin when I hit the Allen wrench. I used a hammer about the size of yours (3 or 4lb I believe). Between the chuck and drill body there were a space to put a thin wrench. I made a quick wrench out of out 10 gauge bar stock and then was able to remove the chuck. They were on there VERY tight, no way they would have come off otherwise. I had a 24" breaker bar on the hex socket in teh chuck!

I used the method on the second drill and this really works! I did it with an Einhell hammer drill which needed a new keyless chuck.

Just removed the keyless chuck on my drill after watching this vid. Easy to follow, Thanks alot for your time.

Used the second technique on my drill. Worked like a charm! Thanks!

thanks!! it helped me change an old chuck and saved me from buying a new drill. great video

Thanks for making that vid. My screw snapped off. But I got the chuck off thanks to you. I hated that chuck. Things came louse, and the grip chaffed me.

This the shortest video with desired information. Thank you.

Worked like a charm! Thanks for the tips!

Thanks buddy, it worked for my Tacklife screwdriver straightway whose jaws were stuck inside. Thumps up.

Thank you very much! I have being thinking how to do that for years without a clue!

Bit daunting swinging the hammer at it haha its same for the 10.8v dewalt drills only it's a t4 torx inside. Thanks for shedding the light on this

Glad somebody to know how to remos those chucks. Thanks!

worked like a charm, thanks for the post I was thinking I was going to have to buy a new drill.

Thanks, this worked great for me. There's no way I could unscrew my torx screw so it felt good to bust the screw by torquing the chuck like you showed. I used a big pipe wrench.

You saved my favorite drill and 200$.. Thanks!

Thanks bro. I just went out and fixed my drill!! :) Thanks so much

Thank you so much man I just broke the T-20 and I was panicking had to remove the bolt !!!!

Thanks for the video, was able to make one useful drill from two broken ones.

Quick and to the point, thanks.

Nice seeing the screw was buggered up on the first one. Made it easier for me to fix mine! Great video!

Really good many thanks. i have just removed the checks of both of my drills. Do appreciate it.

Worked just great, thanks. For anyone else wondering if the hex key is reaching all the way inside to a nut when you are banging it with a hammer to help unscrew this... its not. A regular hammer wasn't doing it, but a rubber hammer did just fine.

Worked perfectly for me on my craftsman 19.2V drill. I used a dead-blow hammer instead. I'm curious why you say to put it in "high" range - that allows the chuck to apply more torque to the motor, and the motor provides less lock-up / braking action. Despite that, it worked fine, and it seems like it might be less likely to damage the drive-train...

I have a 18v guild drill with a keyless chuck and I have tried what you have done and it doesn't work and so can you explain for the guild drill on how to remove the keyless chuck been as mine needs to be taken off for replacement

Thanks buddy!! Great video! Gonna try this to 2 of my dewalts right now ...the drills seem to outlast the chuck

Good, first video I looked at, no farting about, did not tell me all about the world his wife and his dog, and now I can try and take the chuck off my drill which I am having trouble with. By the way my wife is fine and the dog is doing ok today. Thank you.

Thank you. But note that for the double sleeve drill, please highlight that the screw is loosen by turning it in the clockwise direction. This is so because the video is a bit too fast to determine the direction.

worked great! My drill had a wobbly chuck - DeWalt is sending new chuck!

Now that you got that chuck head off, is it possible to now put on a 1/4 hex shank head on that drill ?? Like the same 1/4 hex shank heads that impact drivers have ??

Nice job, I tired today and it worked great thanks again.

Any tips on the the chuck removal of a DCD950? Unfortunately there is no set screw in the center. I've cut most of the chuck off with a grinder, and have came down to almost a "gear" in the center. Can't tell if it's pressed on or what...

is there a tool to remove a chuck center screw from dewalt a d797 1/2 hammer drill... can not find anything related to this drill

Great vid and info. Thanks for posting.

You did a really good job showing how to remove a chuck! A lot of people will not take time to thank you...For all of them "Thank you for making the video!" Now go back to work...lol

I LOVE this guy! He wears the same shirts I do!

tried that on 2 drills, one worked the other the motor turns... anyway to hold the motor? I tried gearbox in 1,2,3 all with it in drill mode.

hello i have a cordless it not a well known make the problem is th jaws open fully but only close half way any suggestions please. thank you

Thanks for the lesson. My neighbor and I did that no Allen screw after we removed Phillip screw. I turned the chuck was results. The the thing works but teeth won’t come out. Any ideas? Thanks

what if my chuck wont tighten?

On your first chuck in the video, I think my screw head is already broken off. So, should I still be able to remove the chuck using roughly the same technique you showed? It looks to me like you use the water pump pliers to break the head off the screw/bolt anyway, so I'm thinking I just need the extra torque to remove the chuck and replace it. My chuck is working fine for now, but I expect that I may have problems if that retaining screw is broken off already.

Does this also work on Chuck Taylors. My foot is stuck.

Awesome, thank you. Saved me breaking my old cordless drill to get it apart to change brushes.

great vid - I now see it's easy to do!

Thank you very much for this information. I’m going to use an old drill to drive a worm gear for use in an antenna rotator project I'm working on for KZfaq and although I found the left-hand threaded bolt in the chuck I was trying to pull the chuck off, I was thinking it would be on a hexagon or something like that. Like everything else in life find the guy that knows how and it’s easy. Many thanks. Kind Regards ... Andy GWØJXM

Sweet.....gunna go save mine now....Thanks dude!

Great advice, worked for me.

kick ass method, thankk you so much bro!

easy thank ya nice work saved me alot off money !!

Thank you very much for the informative video.

the chuck in my xrp doesnt close up all the way around smaller drill bits any more like it used to can it be fixed? if so how thanks

My chuck was not coming off with my brassy. I followed your tip of "bigger hammer. " Two swings with a and it was off. Thanks!

What if you can't get the drill bit out it won't release?

Brilliant! thank you

mine the transmission also rotate when I try to hammer...how can i stop transmission from moving all setting tried...it moves

Can you tell me how many NM has a DEW981 ??? I would like to know because I have one but I don't know her strength ... Thanks

hey mine does not have a screw. it looks like it has a snap ring???

Worked for me too, thanks.

My double sleeve chuck has no screw to remove. There are flutes inside the chuck, down near the threads that a T-40 Torx will engage, but it would require a long T-40 with a handle--a Torx bit wouldn't work. What do I do now?

I cannot open the chuck..can u help me? do I have to use that big channellock?

Thanks for the video. My Dewalt got a rusted chuck and the plastic part just went round and round! I cut the plastic off and got the chuck to work again but its a bit dangerous having the chuck jaws sticking out of the back. IMHO the Jacobs, the Rohm and the Fein chucks are all very good but the Made in China DIY grades are not so good. BTW is the chuck thread 1/2" NF20?

I had to use a propane torch to heat up and loosen the Allen keyed set screw on my keyless Dewalt drill...everything else was as shown, thanx

Hi, there is a roll of toilet paper on the counter, what do you need it for?

I had to use a soldering gun on mine and allow it too heat up until I could barely touch the plastic lock down and then the center screw finally came out. The chuck simply unscrewed after that.

Great video! Thanks.

Hi there! I got one drill like the second one, but no charge to remove the chuck, any more tips, please? Thanks, stay safe!

Whats the GPU of the gaming rig in the background?

on the ac drills many of the chucks lock with a drill in, no way out but to slice the chuck with a cutting wheel on a small grinder= By the way engineers say left hand thread thanks for vid tho

Keep in nmind when hitting the drill on the one that doesn't lock that the transmission has plastic gears inside.

Are the DeWaalts 1/2-20?

I'm afraid to break the T20 screw head off, Because if I can't loosen it with the T20 driver, how can I loosen it with it's head broken off with a slot cut in it with a cut off tool?

Thank you very much.

Tried your method but it just keeps clicking as i turn and doesn't get loose. I set the torque to max (drill mode) and gead selector #1

how much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?

Awesome! Tks for the help!

i have a quick release double sleeve chuck on a mains powered drill without torque settings or gearbox so i cant lock it how do i get the chuck off? ove got the screw out the middle but i cant get it to budge

Thanks a lot pal, we had the right idea but were going the wrong way, dad say's "You're a fucking hero" :D

Mine is the DW972 12V unit - the hex-head screw won't come loose - the hex key slips in the slot. May I use the above method?

if you have trouble whacking the Ellen key and it seems the chuck won't budge -- try the other side apparently videos like this break my brain into pieces by switching the point of view of objects. I was actually tightening it. Good thing the chuck is ruined that's why I'm pulling it out, no harm done.

I have had a problem getting the screw out of the chuck since it is trapped behind the fingers of the chuck itself. someone thought it would be funny if they backed the screw out partway and then tighten the chuck as hard as they could onto it. I cant turn the screw or loosen the tension on the chuck.

UPdate- after looking at the screw - it looks like a torx, but an allen wrench got it out REVERSE THREADS

The second one you did (DW 972?) was done AFTER you removed the bolt. Problem is, the bolt head is worn out from (previous attempts at removal?) and can't be done the way you show.... I don't think. So how do you remove the chuck with the bolt still in it? Or, can you?

Thanks a bunch!

I could not get the bell to go off when I tried it!

and using bigger shank drills, through that chuckless away, because if the drill slips, which it often does, a slither of steal sticks in the chuck and it,ll never be any good again Chucks as supplied are usually rubbish and a good chuck is going to be expensive

Don't think it would have worked with my $40 Ryobi corded drill. Chuck seized, couldn't put an allen wrench in it. Didn't have a screw, instead some kind of weird permanent looking metal fastener. Took off case, seemed designed to be difficult to service. Returned it barely within its return period, got my money back.

Thank you!!! :)

the chuck on my drill just spins freely, sowhen I I insert the allen wrench, and hit it with a hammer, it just spins freely, no resistance, and the chuck never loosens, Yes I have removed the screw, but the chuck will not loosen, the chuck and shaft spin freely, what do you suggest (thow it out?) I want to keep this keyless chuck and put it on a new keyed drill.

There are many reasons to replace a chuck, but usually it has to do with either the chuck not opening or closing right, or the teeth get broken.

Hello, I've got a Right Angle Drill DEWALT DCD740, it has a 3/8" chuck. I want to replace it with 1/2" one. I cannot remove it - there is no bolt inside. Do you have any idea how to remove the chuck? Maybe just unscrew it? Which way clockwise or counterclockwise? I’m afraid to break it. Here is a photo of the chuck inside: drive.google.com/file/d/1-1lqmPcBhO-fgtZQ1ROEC0iEoMzwLte9/view?usp=sharing

Whts wih the voice fing?

very thank

👍

Thank bro

Nice!

You don't need to break that locking screw!!!! It's a left hand thread. Mine is a #25 or so TORX head. Turn it off opposite of normal, then you can reuse it and don't have to deal with removing the stub from the chuck, which might be real bad to get out.

9 years later. Thanks hope your all aging well. It still works. LOL. Have a prosperous 2020. Go DJT

👍👍👍
