Drill Chuck Removal

The Model G0463 may have shipped with the drill
chuck installed in the spindle. If this is the case,
go ahead and remove the chuck and arbor at this
time.

Tools Needed:

Qty

Brass Hammer .................................................. 1
Pin Spanner ....................................................... 1
Wrench 17/19mm .............................................. 1

To remove the chuck and arbor from the

spindle:

1. UNPLUG THE MILL/DRILL!

2. Remove the safety cap that covers the

drawbar.

3. Lock the quill in place with the quill lock.

4. Insert the pin spanner into the two holes at

the bottom of the spindle. This will keep the
spindle from turning, and allow you to loosen
the drawbar (see

Figure 8).

NOTICE

DO NOT completely unscrew the drawbar

before striking it with the hammer. You will

damage the threads on the drawbar and the

arbor.

6. Tap the top of the drawbar with the hammer.

This will unseat the taper of the arbor and the
spindle (see

Figure 9).

7. Hold one hand under the chuck and finish

loosening the drawbar by hand until it falls out
of the spindle.

Note: The chuck is attached to the arbor
using a JT6 taper. This attachment is consid-
ered to be semi-permanent. There should be
no need to remove the chuck from the arbor.
Inspect the chuck from time to time to make
sure it is still tight on the arbor. If it is loose,
use an dead-blow or other soft headed ham-
mer to re-seat the taper.

5. Using the 17mm wrench, loosen the drawbar

but DO NOT remove it.
