change chuck

[Rafael]

I was trying to change the chuck on my drill. But the spindle assembly came off I was wondering if I need a special tool to take the chuck off from the spindle assembly ?

It's definitely unusual to have the spindle assembly come off when you're changing a chuck. That spindle is buried pretty deep inside the tool. As far as the chuck removal goes, you can read the post below by MikeF, or visit our chuck removal page here:

You shouldn't need any special tools to remove the chuck.
