This how to get a chuck off a drill.look inside the chuck for a screw. it will be a left handed screw.once you get the screw out put the chuck in a vice . you will need to squeeze it very tight. then put the drill in reverse and pull the trigger.if i wont come off you will need to hit the chuck with a hammer while you are holding the trigger. if you have a bit stuck in the chuck and cant get it out put the chuck in the vice and hit it very hard with a hammer until the chuck falls apart.i work on drills every day ,this is the only way we have found that works

How do I take out the spindle on a 1675-1 Milwaukee hole hawk drill
To remove the spindle on a Milwaukee Hole Hawg 1675-1 drill, you will need to follow these steps:
  1. Disconnect the drill from the power source and remove the chuck key.
  2. Turn the drill over so that the chuck is facing upwards.
  3. Locate the spindle lock button on the side of the chuck.
  4. Press the spindle lock button and hold it down while rotating the chuck counterclockwise to loosen it.
  5. Once the chuck is loosened, you can remove it from the spindle by pulling it off.
  6. To remove the spindle from the drill, you will need to loosen and remove the retaining bolt that holds it in place. The retaining bolt is typically located on the bottom of the drill, near the front of the spindle.
  7. Once the retaining bolt is removed, you should be able to lift the spindle out of the drill.
It is important to follow these steps carefully to avoid damaging the spindle or the drill. If you are having difficulty removing the spindle, you may need to consult the owner's manual or a certified mechanic for assistance. They will have the necessary tools and expertise to help you remove the spindle safely.

Vintage unlisted model Milwaukee drill with frozen chuck.
on the bench drill ( drill stand ) if you see a long slot in the shafts when you pull the drill down all the way , the you will need a tapered bit of metal that fits in that slot
Drive the metal through so that it forces the chuck assembly out of the morse taper
You can get replacement units from any good tool shop

Milwaukee1/2 magnum hammer drill keyless chuck stuck closed
yes call 1-800-sawdust that's the Milwaukee factory number. They can tell you what the spindle and thread sizes are so you can order a keyed chuck. They should even be able to tell you what chuck they have that will fit it.

Lost of power
Pull the brushes out - remove 3 screws holding gearcase to handle & remove gearcase with armature from handle.
More than likely you will find the field inside the handle is melted down & binding the armature up. Depending on how long it ran smoking you may have cooked the armature as well.

I want to know the steps needed to replace a 1/2" keyed chuck.on a Milwaukee 0234-6 Magnum Drill
they make a service fixture for that BUT if you can find a thin wall open end wrench that will fit behind the chuck on the hex of the spindle you can still do it. What you will need to do is remove the left hand chuck retaining screw, put the wrench or similar item over the hex and then put the chuck key in a hole that is about a 30 degree so that you can strike it counter clockwise to remove. That chuck is on tight and there no easy way to remove it like you can do on cordless items.

Chuck is stuck open cant get to free how do i replace chuck
You need to secure the drill - perhaps in a vise - and insert the chuck key (if it is a key-less chuck you may have to use a pipe wrench or something similiar) and give the key (or wrench) a sharp hit to release it. The chucks are screwed onto the drill with a right hand thread. Let me know if this works for you. Thanks

How do I change a bit
This drill uses a keyless chuck. which means you have to hold onto the barrel by the end of the drill chuck. Then you need to put the drill in reverse to open the chuck to put a bit in. Insert a bit and then put the drill back into forward and hold chuck to tighten.

Chuck is very hard to adjust
Try lubrication, and check that the retaining screw, down inside, has not come loose. failing all of that, replace the chuck.
