Remove reverse thread screw from centre of chuck.
Then set on low gear, high torque.
Put large alum key inside jaws of chuck
Then hit alum key with a hammer to break it loose.
Might be advisable to secure the drill body in a vice before striking.
 
Any idea how to remove broken chuck.
...Put large alum key inside jaws of chuck ... Then hit alum key with a hammer to break it loose.
That's the way to remove an unbroken chuck. However, if it's broken, the OP might well have problems in securing an allen key in its jaws. In that situation, it may be necessary to attach a clamp of some sort to the chuck and then hit that with a hammer.

Kind Regards, John

Thanks all. The chuck jaws are broke, so cant put allen key in. Have tried with stilsons and knocking down, but no good.
Silly question (but I've made the mistake myself!!!) - I presume you're sure that you're hitting it in the right direction? If so, your only real hope is probably to leave some pentrating oil to do its work for a few hours and then try again. Any attempt to 'jamb' the works so that you can apply continuous force to the stilsons will almost certainly do irrepairable damage.

Kind Regards, John
 
The internal SCREW has a LH thread. You have to undo that by turning it clockwise. (You already did that, right?)

The chuck has a normal Right hand thread, So you undo and remove the chuck by turning it counterclockwise. (Like a normal screw).

Try wacking it with your lightsaber

:LOL:
 
Hi Taylortwocities.

Yep, did all that and its just not budging.

The light sabre would defo do irreparable damage me thinks.

And its Darth owing to the snoring, allegedly !
