Having issues with your Milwaukee mag drill? But if the chuck is stuck solid, and just won’t move — don’t worry at all! MagLand is seeking to offer you some straightforward tip and tricks to bring it back up and running. Here’s what you can do, step by step.
A mag drill is one of those tools you probably don’t have lying around but can’t live without once you do. And this can be quite annoying when you have little time to get your work done. In such cases, the first thing that you must do is turn off and unplug your drill. This is crucial for safety now. The next step is to make sure that drill is seated right in the chuck. If not, that may be part of the problem.
Then, don a glove that will shield your hand. This will keep you safe and out of trouble whilst you try to fix the problem. Try to twist the chuck gently by hand. And sometimes, it just needs a little kick. If that doesn’t do anything, you can take a rubber mallet and lightly tap the side of the chuck. This can help loosen it up.
Now, let’s get a good look at the chuck. Dirt and debris can sometimes get stuck in there, preventing the chuck from functioning properly.” And make sure to dust, wipe away any grams of dirt, dust, or anything that lies in the way. If you can change the chuck, a clean chuck will be much better!
Then its time to apply some lube. Choose a product like WD-40.] Spritz the chuck with it gently. And if the chuck is truly stuck, you may want to let the lubricant sit for a few hours or even overnight. This allows the lubricant time to seep in and loosen up any rust or gunk.
After learning how to solve the chuck issue, we should discuss how to prevent it from getting stuck again in the future. To prevent this issue, it’s vital to keep your tool clean and in good working condition. Cleaning the chuck regularly can minimize the build-up of gunk and dirt in there.
My second tip, which has absolutely nothing to do with drilling holes in wood, is to put a little lube in the chuck before you ever drill with the drill.” This can prevent the formation of rust and keep the chuck from sticking to begin with.
