Per the title! Has anyone been faced with this posters dillema? I am faced with the same issue and do not want to screw any thing up,
The chuck is mounted with a brass sleeve, no sign of any thing threaded.

 

Is there enough information on the chuck to look up the details about it? Could be a tapered fit, but could also be a press or thermal fit (though I doubt it's a thermal fit).

Can the end of the shaft be seen from the front of the chuck when it is fully opened?

 

The inside view is just the end of a solid brass circuilar mount of some form.
Appears about the same diameter as the rear view?

 

Does it operate clockwise and anticlockwise?
If clockwise only, suspect lefthand securing thread.
Good luck..............

 

If it's threaded, there should be a pretty obvious way to lock the motor shaft, such as a hex fitting of some kind or a pin hole.

 

There is a minimum amount showing at the rear As is seen in the photo,, you can just catch a small ring of brass at the rear of the chuck.
No apparent method obvious.?
I was hoping someone had been there, and tell if taper, thread or?

 

Put the key in the chuck and give it a good whack with a soft mallet (Anticlockwise).

Tried that!

 

OK, I plugged in all the info from the chuck and Google AI came back with

My experience is that an ordinary hammer without having to whack too hard will break the stiction. A soft mallet may not transfer sufficient instantaneous impact. Heat may help; penetrating oil like WD40 or home made 50/50 mix of acetone (nail varnish remover) and vegetable oil.

I don't remember the correct name for the tool, but it is designed expressly for this (removing pulleys from shafts). It looks like a tuning fork except the tangs are tapered down to a point. You straddle the shaft and then tap the back of the the handle. Many auto parts tools have them for loan or rent.

 

I am presently making one up to try that fork approach, will let you know.

 

Hello,

@WBahn , do you mean a pulley puller?

How to use Jacob's chuck removal wedges

 

There is typically a slot in the side of the Jacob's chuck for the wedge, but I don't think that is the case here. Try putting a block of scrap wood on the top of the chuck and smack downward sharply on it with a hammer. Spent a summer working in a machine shop as a large drill press operator and very familiar with Jacob's chucks and drill sharpeners. The shaft of the chuck on my Wen benchtop drill press also inserts into an enclosed in the frame Jacob's chuck but never needed to remove it.

Edit: Guess what I did... Hard plastic faced hammer!


Also, I ran the head down on my drill press and found it has a slot for the Jacob's Chuck wedge. Which I don't have...

No, not a gear puller. It looks like a tuning fork:



Commonly used to remove bearings from shafts.

That's intended to go into the slot in the spindle to force the tool out. But this has no such slot.

If they tapered down far enough, you could use to of them, one on each side of the shaft. Using just one may work okay, but there is greater risk of bending the shaft (plus, it will take more force because of the side load on the shaft/chuck interface).

 

It looks like a tuning fork:

Called a "Pickle Fork"... Used to remove the tapered fit tie rod ends et al.

I am making one up the right size, will let you know if this works!
