If it's a twist bit try putting a vice-grip pliers on the end and turn it so the fluting pushes the bit out. If it won't move or if it's a spade bit you'll have to split the wood around the bit. You may or may not be able to do this with the offending part of the stump in the ground. Using a wedge, drive it into the stump near but not next to the bit so you don't damage the bit. Don't drive the wedge flush into the stump or you may get the bit out and then have the wedge stuck. Worst case, carefully use a chainsaw to cut out the stump so you can split the wood around the bit.
Try an easy out tool found at any hardware store. First use the appropriate size drill bit out the easy out kit and drill into the damaged part of the screw, then use the easy out tool in a drill in reverse slowlyuntil it grabs the screw and backs it out. You could get some PB blaster lubricant and spray the screws, Trust me yould never use WD-40 again. Hope this helps.
Low quality steel drill bits get stuck in the Makita because the hammer impact squashes the metal, forming a ridge that gets snagged on the anvil's steel ball bearing. Use only impact drill bits.
If the bits get a bit distorted they will stick, if you have a bench vise clamp the bit in the jaws and give the trigger a quick pull.(reverse) That should dislodge the bit. This happens quite often on lesser quality bits that are made of soft metal.
if this is an SDS try grabbing the bit with some vice grips and jiggling it back and forth. DO Not do this when its plugged in or has a battery hooked up. (your model # did not mach an online search so I don't know what you've got. Also a bit of WD-40 or the like may help loosen it up.
That can happen if the jaws inside the chuck, usually 3 triangular pieces get jammed together. With chuck facing down tap chuck several times to loosen jaws. If that doesn't work spray a small amount of WD-40 into chuck and try again
