If you open the jaws of almost any drill and look down in them you will see the head a bolt or a hole with a bolt recessed down in it. Higher end tools like Marita will recess the bolt to prevent it from being damaged and complicating possible future maintenance or repairs.
The bit has probably been driven into that hole.. clamp the bit in a vice and run the drill and it should ream off any steel that has bulged on the bit.
The hole is usually pretty small.. lemme guess. The bit is a 3/16 tapcon bit with a notched end

Hi. Just to clarify, it is a rotary hammer drill, not an impact drill? In most cases those machines put out 3 joules of energy on the back of the drill bit. If it was a cheap bit, the hammer action "mushrooms" the end of the bit making it difficult to remove. You could try to force it out using a bench vise, but you could damage the chuck.

The chuck on my new makita drill is stuck with a drill bit in it. It won't open back up.

This is caused by tightening the chuck using the drills power, if you clamp the bit in a vice and using a pair of multi grips on the chuck in an anti clockwise direction gently bounce the grips and after a few tries it will undo, don't use too much pressure or try to unwind it in one move or myou will damage the chuck sleeve

Keyless chuck drill just spins

Some times the selector on top get gummed up with dust, it just needs cleaning. You were right to put it into 1st gear to remove the chuck with a big allen key, you get more resistance in the gears.

The chuck wont open or close properly the three bits inside dont work at the same time they are all different lengths

Hi, the simplest and best solution is to replace the whole chuck. This is a cheap and easy thing to do and suitable 13mm chucks are available online from lots of different manufacturers and are nearly all compatible. here is link to a genuine Makita replacement chuck , but there are plenty of cheaper brands to choose from. http://www.ereplacementparts.com/keyless-drill-chuck-p-90496.html Hope this was of use to you.

I have a Makita HP1621f Drill,and I cannot get the drill bit out,seems like the chuck itself is bad,any ideas on how to remove the drill bit?

Sometimes if you happen to have the right size bit, it will stick into the bolt that holds the chuck on if the chuck wasn't tight enought to keep it from slipping further into the chuck. Clamp drill bit in vice and tap chuck with soft hammer to pull it free.

Black decker drill keyless chuck won.t open !

hold the back of the chuck with channel locks or a vice and use the same channel locks on the front and open the chuck manually it should work and you can get to the screw to replace it or the hand chuck. this can be a little frustrating but hang in there and you'll be a pro shortly.

Damaged chuck

Grasp chuck, reverse it until fully open. Look inside where bit goes and should be an allen head or torque head screw holding chuck to motor arbor/shaft.

Matika hammer drill - bit stuck

The spade bit sold with the hammer drill was actually too large for the hammer drill. We found that the spade bit had over heated (not from overuse or heavy use as only two ladies were using the hammer drill) but because the bit was too large it put too much weight on the drill. The bit had to be removed from the chuck using a hammer and force causing a bearing to come out and the chuck now needs repair. Solution repair the chuck on the hammer drill and buy a lighter spade bit. Then continue jackhammering the cement out of the shower cubicle.
