Meddings DrillTru chuck removal help please.

[YouraTParticipant @yourat]

At college we have a DrillTru drill press where the chuck is held to the spindle using a taper (DIN on this version, but I don’t think that matters specifically).

I need to get the chuck off as it’s had an “insult” resulting in drill wobble, but I can’t see how this is achieved.

It’s fitted with a Jacobs No34 chuck.

Specifically, there is no groove in the spindle to use taper removal wedges – there must be something I’m missing….

Thanks!

There is a very brief video on the Meddings web-site … but it basically just demonstrates the use of wedges.

You could maybe call their bluff and ask why it doesn’t apply
