Ryobi Compact 18 Volt Hammer Drill P214 2015: Can't remove chuck from drill

Thu, 27 Feb 2025 13:15:50 -0700

I have the ryobi p214 cordless drill and no matter what I cant remove the chuck. I took the screw out from inside the jaws and I put an allen wrench in and held it with the jaws. I managed to turn the chuck counter clockwise but it just barely spins without loosening at all. How can I get the chuck off?

Milwaukee M12 2407-20: Drill works until it has had moderate use, then dies

Thu, 20 Jun 2024 22:20:37 -0700

Drill is 5 years old, had moderate use. Drill 5 to 10 holes in wood or drive 5 to 10 longer screws and the drill stops working, battery strength lights flash. Leave it alone for 3 to 5 minutes and it works again normally. Do the same amount of work and it repeats. If you only drill 1 or 2 holes or drive 1 or 2 screws the drill does not misbehave. A tool only replacement is $100 CDN and an upgrade to 1/2” is only $30 more with charger and bag. The repair solution needs to be inexpensive parts wise and not epic to perform. I’m willing to try a fairly simple repair/servicing. Any suggestions??

DeWalt DWD112: Trigger control won't work correctly after dropping drill

Wed, 19 Jun 2024 10:30:58 -0700

I've had my Dewalt DWD112 drill now for almost a year now with no problems. I've dropped this drill before and it's gone through a lot but the other day it fell not even 4 feet and now the trigger control is non responsive, and I have no idea what could have gone wrong or how to properly fix it. Any help on this would be awesome.

Ryobi P235: Drill comes to a slow stop rather than a quick stop

Tue, 05 Dec 2023 00:02:41 -0700

Hello!

My brother has this impact and when he pulls the trigger it works fine, it’s when he lets off the trigger when it comes to a slow stop rather than a quick stop, is this a trigger issue? I don’t have that impact to compare it to.

Dewalt Hammer Drill DCD796D2BT TYPE 1 2017: drill bit stuck inside dewalt impact drill

Fri, 02 Dec 2022 10:14:40 -0700

i have a dewalt impact drill and the bit is stuck, im pretty sure i put the wrong bit inside and now its stuck and ive tried everything to get it out and its not working, is there a way to take it apart and then take it out or is the answer just brute force, i dont really want to damage the actual drill, i dont understand how its stuck to be honest, i think the drill holds the square type of drill bit and i put a smooth drill bit inside to do a quick job and did not have the normal drill, if anyone has any recommendations that would be awesome thank you

Driver: Trigger not triggering impact driver - how to diagnose/fix?

Fri, 29 Apr 2022 05:55:52 -0700

My erbauer impact driver started having intermittent problems where the trigger would t trigger the driver. This has gradually got worse, no it never works.

it’s not the battery, that works in the drill fine.

I’ve squirted contact cleaner in it, no joy.

you can see the problem in the video, you can see how the contact light flickers, it’s like there isn’t enough contact to get the thing going.

im not knowledgable enough to know what this means or how to diagnose it further.

Anyone any ideas?
