Thanks for the support everyone!
Troubleshooting Tuesday is all about Solving Problems! I hope to bring some quality content to this Series! The first one is removing a bit from the Milwaukee Impact driver. Never put just a bit into the Impact! It quickly was futile and took my impact out of commission for months. Well, I finally got around to messing with it! I figured the worst that could happen is that I'd have to send it back to Milwaukee and my pride would suffer!
Below are some links to the tools I used in my video! Affliate links

Thanks for watching! Stay tuned for more!
Under the black collar there is split retaining ring that holds it together. Use the smallest slotted screwdriver in a micro screwdriver set to easily remove the snap ring then remove the flat washer, spring to get to the ball bearing.
I just pulled the collet and wrapped some string behind it so it would stay in the release position. Then I put a vise grip on the bit as tight as I could. Took a small hammer and tapped the the vice grip. On third tap it came out. Oiled the bit and put it in and out a few times. Probably good idea to put a little oil down the throat. The 3.5 mm ball in there that catches the indent on the bit needs it to move freely.
But I liked the video. I like to watch people take things apart and back together again. Thanks.
Great method
Dude, thank you so much. I had arranged to go to a local machine shop when I found your video. I got it apart, fixed and back together. I've been screwing with this stuck bit off and on for a few months now.
Thanks again
Wow the part I needed to see is out of focus! What a bummer
This video helped me also! We have one of these at work but the bit isnt stuck but the bit won't stay in. It still works for now but it gets annoying when you have things on the ground or have a lot at once and the bit keeps falling out
Put some vice grips on the part of the chuck that slides out to release the bit. Then tap it on your hand or on a table and eventually the bit will start to work itself loose
This reminds me of the first time I changed the starter on my car. I started to removed several components unnecessarily to get access to the started. When my dad said what I done, he started to laugh!! He said to me, son, you almost removed the whole engine! Lol
I wanna say thanks for your efforts on this task...gave me the confidence I needed to pop mine apart...i found applying a little bit of heat to the anvil (the bit holder) was enough to relax it's grip on the bit and I drew it out with heavy linesmans pliers...nothing worse than a tool rendered useless and gloating at you every time you're chucking bits up in your drill...lol
Thank you. I tried the vice grips with the same result. Tried flattening the bit with a Dremmel and drilling it out, but the bit was too hard to drill. This will be my next approach
Hold the thingy that pulls out all the way extended, place drill with bit faced down, whack the piece that extends with a hammer. Bit falls right out
I have a similar issue with my Ryobi impact I had a harbor freight step bit snap off in the chuck and there’s basically nothin sticking out of the chuck to grab onto. My first thought was to drill a tapped hole in in bit shaft then screw a screw into the broken shaft and pull out with pliers however the metal seems to be to hard for any bit I own to drill into it.. very frustrating btw. So I am going to try your process and see if I can get it out.. thanks for taking the time to make the video my man
My bit got stuck. I pushed the holder in release mode, then hit the bit with a hammer toward inside. It went in, then I pulled it out in release mode easily.
Zip tie to keep the collet release open, vise grips on end of stuck bit at a right angle, and with driver in a drill straight down position, strike vise grips with hammer.
Thanks dude
For tearing apart the whole gun
Jump to just Pulling the quick release c clip and spring asm aprt to clamp down gun n vise and pull out tip
Big thanks for tearin it all apart for us!!
Same tool & problem. Pull release out and hold. Clamp on vice grip. Turn upside down. Tap. Less than 60 sec.
The Fedex Aircraft Maintenance Techs in Harrisburg Pa thank you in a big way! We have the same impact that wouldn't release a stuck apex bit after using it on an Airbus A300...I found your video, disassembled our impact gun and removed the stuck bit EXACTLY the way you did! Thanks for posting! Would you happen to have any videos on how to remove a Boeing B757 #2 engine PRSOV Valve? Thanks Again!!
I’m glad the video helped! I’m humbled that you were able to get it done with my video. To answer your question, No I don’t have a video on that! If needed, I sure can show you how to test, troubleshoot, remove, and install anything on the F402-RR-408 Rolls Royce Pegasus Turbofan engine! We can also go over calculating dimensional RPM and performing high power checks, VIGV system checks, and DECU datums. So I’m pretty sure we can get anything done on that B757 engine!! 💪🇺🇸 Thanks for the comment brother!
On another note! I can’t believe you guys use an apex bit in an impact! Those this expand so easily!
I had the same problem and couldn't get the Philips head bit out with needle nose or regular pliers, vice grips, etc. What worked for me was to grab the end of the bit with a wire cutter/stripper tool. That gripped the bit and pulled it out with ease.
Thanks bud. Wire cutters worked better
I did the same thing just now and I used a hot glue stick melted it on top of the bit and pulled the black lock at the tip up and pulled the dried hot glue stick and it got the bit out with out doing everything you did.
Nice video, this happened to me once..inside of taking the whole impact apart, I filed the bit down then used a speed screw to get it out of the chuck..
Ok mines jammed in halfway between the flutes with nothing to grab or tap💩💩💩. What’s a speed screw anyway
Hey friend, great video, I was not able to see if there was a hole straight THROUGH the chuck though? I have a DeWalt with the same issue, except my bit broke off in the chuck. Thank you for your help.
Yes this version had a hole all the way through. I’ve worked on other impacts that did not.
Thanks, your video really helped I didn't take mine apart but I locked my stuck drill into a vice and pulled the bit release, and taped it with a hammer until it came out thanks again dude it was a big help
Thanks for the video got my bit out in the first try after watching the first 5 minutes of the video
Thanks! This helped me in that now I know taking the drill apart is not for me. I may see if I can send it back to the factory or find a tool repair person who can do what you did.
Thanks ,,,,you gave me the courage and knowledge to at least try and trouble shoot. ,,,,,,
Wish me luck !!!!
Holy smokes!! Tremendous video, Much appreciated. When this happened to me I thought my world ended... 😦😦
Just pull the black collar up and the bit will shoot right out. Lol taking it apart is a little overkill isn't it? I mean unless you really wanna do all that work. 😉
THIS ACTUALLY WORKED!! Ty !!! I was sitting here thinking I have to take this whole thing apart when I’m challenged with this stuff that’s how it got stuck in the first place 🤣
This video if for when the but brakes and you can’t take out the small piece. Obviously you just pull out a non broken bit
bout to try your technique, i tried to drill the sheered off tip, with another drill and use an easy out to pull it out. wouldnt work. i guess disassembly is necessary. thanks for the vid.
I had a buddy bring over another Milwaukee impact. His was a different design. I had to drill and drill and then drill some more and use a screwdriver to get the chunks out
Thanks for the video! I got lucky with the basic stuff you listed in the first minute.
I just removed bit without taking drill apart
Iv got the exact same problem with the exact same drill. What iv dont is epoxy glued a screw on to the bit just waiting for it to dry
No need to take it apart. take a grinder with a cut off wheel. cut the bit so you have 2 opposing flat sides. even try to taper it inward a little. then grab the bit in the vice and take a punch and hammer or an air hammer. PRESTO!
Hey its me again. After I watched your video, i decided to give one more shoot to fix my driver. I noticed mine was too deep, so I said, why not try, anyways if it doesn't throw it in the garbage. so bottom line, I was able to take it out, thanks you.. You showed me how to do it and to have the patient needed for the task.
Nice job - you are a patient man! Looks fiddly but good drivers aren't cheap!
This stupid bit got stuck that came with my impact.
Absurd that a company can make this shit and one has to go through all of this trouble
Next time put a + screw to the wise and hit the reverse on the impact..The bit should get going eventually
Whoever has a Gen 3...... you don’t need to take apart the hole drill just the retainer clip and the components on the chuck along with the ball then just knock using vice grips to grip the bit then tap it out
not when it goes all the way in.
I'm not finishing the video so if you figured this out way to but you should have just took the collet off.
Much easier way if you got it stuck going forward Put it in reverse
Ian Pencoff ...I just did what you recommended.....and ....out in came!
great job. i have the same problem, but mine is too deep inside that i cant even grab it with anything.
Drilling it out seems only solution in that case. Unless you can get a nail punch in through the ball bearing holes. I'm in the process...
Great job..!!!
grab the bit with a vice grip then tapped the grips with something, you need somebody else to help you to pull the collet.
Good job
ooh rah!
slide hammer
Saw
@3:25 we just kept hitting it with a hammer
Yep! And just in case, use a bigger hammer
Mr. Durbin, thanks for the tutorial. My son buried a bit in my Milwaukee drive yesterday, so I've been looking for a quick fix. I appreciate the effort you put into taking your unit apart and removing the bit. However, take a look at this video and you'll see a much easier method than taking the unit apart that will save you a bunch of time the next time it happens: th-cam.com/video/dt0ld4uu5Ds/w-d-xo.html. Keep up the good work!
he didn't need to do all that shit....ALL he needed to do was to take the front spring out and there you have it...lmao
