Who knows how to remove the chuck from a 9.6V Makita drill motor?

Should be the same for any make I would think.

Open the chuck all the way and look into the center. Theres a screw there. I can't remember if it's a reverse thread. Good luck!

I know someone on this forum can answer this question, but you can look here also http://www.howtomendit.com/questions.php?id=65

On DeWalts the center is a left-hand thread, may be Loctited too!

It is.

Yes, there is a left hand screw to keep the chuck from unscrewing with reverse rotation.

Trick is in removing the chuck. I remove the screw, then hold the chuck while I run the motor in reverse. Comes right off, unless you have corrosion or Loctite.

 

[LarryFine]

Once you remove the screw, if the chuck is still stubborn, tighten it onto the short leg of a large Allen wrench, and strike the long leg in the correct direction with a hammer.

Note: the screw will have the aforementioned left-hand thread, but the chuck will have a standard right-hand thread.

Now I am confused which is my left and which one is my right. I thought it was sun hand and moon hand.
